Native Plant Sale with Aldervale Natives
September 2nd 10am -4pm
Corner of Manzanita and Division on the Dirty Birds Lot
Summer is winding down and that little bit of rain got us excited about adding more natives to our garden. So we reached out to local native plant specialist and grower Hope Stanton. If you have not met Hope you need to. So come on by September 2nd from 10-4 and ask her all of the questions and buy plants from her!
Late summer/fall are ideal times to plant trees, shrubs, groundcovers, and grasses in the Pacific Northwest. The sale will include PNW plants for both sandy, salty, summer drought conditions and shadier spots. Sun and sand tolerant include: Manzanita, Wax myrtle, a low growing Ceonanthus, Shore pine and Dune tansy and others. Shade loving plants include Vine maple, Wild ginger, Oregon boxwood, and Devil’s club.
Native plant seed packets will also be available.
A list of available plants can be found at their website aldervale.net
