The Arboretum would like to remind you of our Annual Arboretum Auxilliary Plant Sale.
Join us this Saturday, September 8, 2012 rain or shine from 9 a.m. – 2 p.m. at the R.J. Hilton Centre on College Avenue East. This year, a large selection of unique plants is available, including rare natives such as blue ash, pawpaw and dwarf chinquapin oak, as well as some outstanding exotics, like the goldenrain tree and Siberian spindle tree. As always, you’ll also find a diverse selection of native wildflowers, ferns, grasses and high-quality ornamental perennials.
Check our website for a listing of the plants that will be available at the sale.
With an array of rare plants and great prices, this is a very popular sale, so be sure to arrive early for best selection!
Please come out and support The Arboretum. Cash, Cheque, Visa, MasterCard and Interac are all acceptable methods of payment. For further information please call 519-824-4120 ext. 52113 or [log in to unmask]
