2022 FRIENDS PLANT SALE

We’re having an in-person plant sale at the Arboretum this year – April 30 & May 1 – so please put those dates on your calendar and follow updates in future eblasts and at our weekly free Zoom programs starting in April.

Because our online sale was so successful last year AND because we again have special access to plants from one of our favorite growers AND because we sold out on so many of the plants we offered last year, we’ve decided to again have an ONLINE SALE of several dozen plants that you can order now and pick up during the weekend of the plant sale.  Members can pick up anytime during the plant sale hours.  Non-Members can pick up during the plant sale hours on April 30 or May 1.

So, get first dibs on a great selection of high quality plants by ordering online between now and April 28. Then, come to the sale to pick up your order and to shop from a wider selection of plants to add to your order. We can’t guarantee that all the plants on our online list will be at the sale, or that we won’t sell out before the sale, so if you see something you want, order it now. Need more of what you ordered last year and loved, perhaps another Ilex verticillata, because the fruiting was beautiful last fall? Another Fig or Blueberry? Or that Blue Gentian that would be just perfect in your shade garden?

Take a look at (orders closed) and start your ordering now.

Happy Spring from the Plant Sale Team!

The Plant Sale Team is putting the “Party” back into the Members Only Friday evening shopping event with live Light Jazz brought to us by the popular Back2Rock Music School in Denville. They’ve also found amazing door prizes from our Retail Partners and there may even be some things for you to sip and nosh on while pondering whether you can get all those plants into your car in one trip. But no worries there either, we will hold your plant purchases until Saturday morning for you!

So, there is absolutely no reason to restrain your plant lust and have a great evening out at the Arboretum! Register now for this special, Members Only shopping event!

Public Sale: 9am – 4pm Saturday, May 2nd and Sunday, May 3rd.

There will be an amazing selection of vegetables, herbs, annuals and tropicals, perennials, trees and shrubs and lots of plant advisors on hand to answer questions and recommend which plants will work best in your garden. The full list of over 500 varieties will be available in a Google Sheets file as our ordering progresses. In the meantime (and to whet your appetite), here is last year’s plant list.
