COUNTDOWN TO PITT COUNTY ARBORETUM PLANT SALE



Prior Year Plant Sale

The Master Gardeners are putting the finishing touches on all aspects of the upcoming plant sale on Saturday, May 17th.  You will be able to buy sun and shade perennials, trees, shrubs, roses, vines, ground covers, herbs, vegetables, and annuals with prices starting at $1. Over 3,500 plants will be available.  The sale is held rain or shine.  (Rain certainly doesn't stop a gardener!)  Cash or checks only.

Additionally, there is a bottle tree raffle.  Hats and garden gloves will also be for sale.

Don't forget the Plant/Garden Art/Tools/Containers/Etc. SWAP.  At this event you bring a garden item you want to exchange for some treasure from another's garden.  A separate area is set up for this and is managed by the Master Gardeners.  If you are bringing a plant, be sure to have it labelled as to what it is and what type of care it needs.  Any items not swapped will need to go back home with the original owner.
