Washington County Master Gardeners to hold plant sale May 15

Washington County Master Gardeners will hold a plant sale on Saturday, May 15, at the Washington County Fairgrounds from 8-11:30 a.m. or until items are sold out. The plant sale will be held at the historic Palmer Polygonal Barn.

“We usually have a great number of perennials and a few annuals,” said Vivan Rothe, Master Gardener president. “This is a great opportunity to get some perennials that are being grown by Master Gardeners.”

The plants are donated by the Washington County Master Gardeners. Most plants come from their gardens and are potted in early spring. Several members dig bulbs and plants in the fall and winter them over for the sale.

Master Gardeners will be available to answer gardening questions.
