Come hear a talk on new plants that will be
available at the Saturday, April 28th Plant Sale., their care, and how to establish an inexpensive pollinator
garden regardless of the kind of property you have. Wet dry, sunny, shady, or on a patio; there
are plants that will work there.
We for the first time will have some wonderful
native starter trees and shrubs at the plant sale. Great way to teach children about the living
world around them. Have them grow
together with them. We also have over 10
new selections, along with many types we have had before, of native pollinator
plants; that have been proven to bring butterflies, fed caterpillars, and
provide wonderful color to your gardens.
Sadly most of the flowers and perennials sold at most garden centers are
not selected to attract and feed butterflies and bees. Our selections have been carefully tested to
do just that. They also come at the amazing garden club price of 2-3 dollars
for long lived perennials and 5-10 dollars for very hard to find native trees
and shrubs.
Pollinator starter and landscape plugs, proven to grow in Bowie, Md. will be available at the 30th Annual Bowie-Crofton Spring Plant Sale on Sat., April 29th 8am-Noon at the Bowie Library. Long lived mostly native perennials 2-3 dollars each. |   | |  |
