Plants looking for a good home & “Saturday in the Garden”

On Saturday, May 9, at the Teaching Garden in Bristow, Va., the Prince William Master Gardener Volunteers will be holding their biannual plant sale.  The prices are set low because they want the plants to go to good homes.  The monies will be used to maintain and enhance the Teaching Garden.  It is a win-win situation for all!  Master Gardeners will be on hand to give advice on the plants and let you know the best plants to plant in sun or shade.  Plant sale will run from 9 a.m. until noon.  Bring cash. Early birds get the best choices!    Come out and see the great selection and support the garden.  Below are photos of some of the plants waiting for a lucky buyer.
