State Fair Park Spring Plant Sale this weekend!

The 23rd Annual Spring Affair will feature plants, programs and demonstrations to help you learn about updating your garden spaces. This event is free and open to the public.

Saturday, April 25, 2009, 9:00 a.m.-4:00 p.m.

The 2009 plant sale will be in the Agricultural Hall at State Fair Park. More than 1,000 different varieties of plants will be available. Most are perennials but some are annual herbs and temperennial plants--hardy in warmer regions and grown as annuals in Nebraska. In addition, vendors selling garden art, sculpture, birdhouses and other items will be on hand.
The plants, purchased from Bluebird Nursery in Clarkson, Neb., are selected for their hardiness in Nebraska and for their past popularity. There is no charge to visit the sale. Plants cost between $2.50 and $7 each depending on pot size; some large specimens or rare specialty plants may be priced slightly higher. Credit cards accepted.
