I am having a plant sale this weekend at the nursery with a focus on the end of the growing season and all the awesome natives that come alive in a finale of color. I will have some of my favorite bouquets on display as well as some seed pods that are useful in projects. see flyer below for info. Hope to see you this weekend.

FALL IS FOR PLANTING!!!    TWO DAY NATIVE PLANT SALE

SEPTEMBER 24 & 25 10 am -  4pm.      

EARTH FIRST NATIVE PLANT NURSERY

4054-A Tremont Ave, Egg Harbor Twp   609-287-5090

Celebrate the coming of Autumn by planting native plants. Planting now gives plants a great chance to establish their root systems over winter and gives them a head start next spring. This is a great time to plant Milkweed for next years’ Monarchs as well as early spring bloomers. All four inch pots are $3.50. Large pots are $10.00. Cash or local checks accepted. There are over 50 species of chemical free, wildlife friendly plants to choose from.

Golden aster, Smooth blue aster, New York Ironweed, Perennial sunflowers, Goldenrods , Milkweeds, Bog/pond plants, Native grasses, Seashore plants, Bonesets, just to name a few. Many are NJ eco-types so they are naturally hardy to our area.        

 

 

 

 

 

Open Garden Native Plant Sale Sept 10 10am - 4pm

I will be having an “open garden” native plant sale. This is last minute, but I had been planning this for a few weeks, but as the time drew closer and I saw the weather was going to be quite hot I had thought about changing the date. However, I was asked to help out at another event next week so I will be having a plant sale at the nursery on Saturday, Sept 10^th,. Hours are 10am to 4pm. No appointment needed, just stop by during those hours. I really wanted to have it while the Golden Asters and Blue Mistflower are blooming, and they look great. I wanted to be able to offer them now. Turtlehead and New York Ironweed, Sunflowers, Asters, Goldenrods are also in bud, so it is a good week to get these plants. There is also Milkweed available.

Also this year I have grown some plants in large pots for those looking for more instant filling in. Seaside Goldenrod, Turtlehead, Smooth Blue Aster, New York Ironweed, Switch Grass, Giant Sunflower, Coral Honeysuckle and Swamp Milkweed are the options and these are $10.00.

All other plants are in 4 inch pots, priced at $3.75 each tax included. I will have 50 species available altogether.

I will also be talking about native flower arrangements, which I have been cutting most of the summer now that my two- year old garden has filled in quite nicely. I mean, hey, who says the garden is only for wildlife to enjoy? The garden is looking quite full so it is a good time to see it.
