FOG Spring Plant Sale – 10:00 am to 12:00 noon, Saturday June 8th, at MUN Botanical Garden

Both experienced and novice gardeners are invited to attend the annual Spring Plant Sale organized by Friends of MUN Botanical Garden (FOG) volunteers. A selection of locally grown perennials and shrubs, propagated by FOG’s Horticultural Group, will be available for purchase. Experienced gardeners will be on hand to answer questions and help identify plants suitable for your garden. Quantities are limited for some plant varieties so come early for best selection. Due to the chilly spring, some plants may be a bit smaller than in prior years but give them time and they should still fill out in your garden once the weather warms!

FOG’s Spring Plant Sale is held outdoors in the Garden’s Nursery, directly opposite the Garden’s main gates. Watch for FOG’s roadside signs and volunteers wearing orange safety vests.

Probably the most important house plant advice that can be given! So many plants die from overwatering! Stick your finger in the dirt. Don’t be afraid 😁 If it’s cool and moist leave it alone! Thanks @MarkCullen4! And thanks @ABurbidge! https://twitter.com/ABurbidge/status/1345484646075740160

Winter (indoor) #gardening Pro tip from @MarkCullen4 in TorStar Homefinder section~ “Resist watering indoor plants until they need it.” Leaves drooping suggest adding water, touch soil to test for dryness. Great read, thx. 🌿🌸
