Talks and Demos at the Native Plant Sale on April 5

Join us at our Native Plant Information Center for talks and demos from native plant experts during the April 5 Native Plant Sale at Morven Park. Whether you’re new to natives or expanding an existing garden or meadow, we can tell you about some of our favorites for sun or shade, wet or dry spots and more. Each talk will last 15 to 20 minutes plus Q&A. We’ll also have native plants and pictures on display along with reference materials to help you decide what you want to add to your home garden habitat.
