Wildflowers everywhere! The Friends Annual Native Plant Sale heralds the return of spring!
Shoppers can choose from more than 100 varieties of woodland ferns and flowering plants, dry prairie plants and grasses, wet prairie flowering plants, and trees and shrubs. Most varieties are not available locally, but all species are native to Lake, LaPorte and Porter counties, as well as much of the rest of Indiana.
In addition to the native plant sale, many books and other literature about native plants and gardening will be available for purchase. The day is geared to those with an interest in gardening with native plants or doing small restoration projects.
“What better plants to start gardening and landscaping with than those that have grown to thrive here for thousands of years, helping wildlife, coping with climate, and resisting disease?” said Brad Bumgardner, interpretive naturalist. “Folks from all around get an opportunity to learn about gardening with native plants and purchase those that are often hard to come by at the same time.”
All Native Plant Sale profits will support the mission of the Friends of Indiana Dunes.
