Botanical Gardens to hold annual Spring Plant Sale

The UNC Charlotte Botanical Gardens annual Spring Plant Sale is set for 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., Friday, April 7, and 9 a.m. to 2 p.m., Saturday, April 8, in Parking Lot 5 off Martin Village Road.

Stewards of the UNC Charlotte Botanical Gardens, as well as members of the campus community, are invited to a “pre-sale” from noon to 4 p.m., Thursday, April 6, to receive a 10% discount.

The Spring Plant Sale is the gardens’ largest of the year, and it offers shoppers the best selection of native plants in Charlotte. Expect colorful annuals, wildflowers, perennials, trees and shrubs along with harder-to-find exotic offerings, such as carnivorous and tropical plants, herbs and select vegetables.

Botanical Gardens staff will be available to answer questions; proceeds from this sale support gardens operations.
