Thanks for a Successful Plant Sale

Thanks to the Conservatory staff plus all the volunteers and  shoppers who made the 23rd Annual Plant Sale a big success.

This year we offered 161 varieties!  Almost all of plants were grown in the Conservatory greenhouses.  To make this possible, the staff and volunteers begin in February sowing seeds.  As the weeks progress, seedlings are transplanted into individual pots, labeled, priced and sorted.  Then they are sold.

Many thanks to all who participated.
