Special finds, special site featured at Perennial Plant Club’s big sale
Bought enough plants yet this spring?
Most gardeners will say “No …. whatcha got?” So most gardeners should check out the Sacramento Perennial Plant Club’s spring sale this Friday and Saturday, April 18-19.
This fundraising sale features plants of all types grown by the club members — who include some mighty talented propagators. There’s always a wide variety of California natives, as well as many tomatoes and other summer veggies, plus succulents, herbs, indoor plants, shade plants and, of course, many types of perennials!
The plants as displayed all have photos and descriptions, but there will be plenty of club members (some of whom are master gardeners) to answer questions about irrigation needs and growth habits.
Proceeds from the sale go toward the club’s Saul Wiseman Gardening Grants and other community projects.
House grounds, site of the plant sale.
Also, “Stan the Tool Man” will be available for sharpening of scissors, knives and garden tools, as well as for drilling drainage holes in containers.
Hours and location are 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. on the grounds of the historic Azevedo-Moll House and Tank House, 1911 Bannon Creek Drive, South Natomas, Sacramento. Admission is free and open to the public.
