Community ClicksSEQUIM — Clallam County Master Gardeners have potted and priced thousands of plants for the group’s annual fall plant sale.
The sale will take place at Woodcock Demonstration Garden, 2711 Woodcock Road, from 9 a.m. to noon Saturday, Oct. 1, with a half-price sale of leftovers from noon to 2 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 2.
Sale coordinators advise people to arrive early for the best deals.
A line usually forms at the gate well before the sale starts.
Purchases support Master Gardener public education and demonstration garden projects in Clallam County.
At the sale, attendees will find hundreds of plants grown by local Master Gardeners, including Russian sage, sedums, ferns, heuchera, heathers, saxifrage, hardy geraniums, New Zealand brass buttons, creeping jenny, purple-leafed garden sage, lupine, hellebore, iris and others.
In addition, the group received a donation of many large trees and shrubs from Rose and Tim Jaeger, following the closure of Henery’s Garden Center in Sequim.
The trees include river birch, Japanese snowbell, flowering cherry, Italian cypress and dwarf Alberta spruce.
Some of the trees are 7 to 11 feet tall (not including the pot height).
An information booth is staffed during the sale to answer questions on how, where and when to plant items purchased.
Used garden books and tools will also be for sale.
For more information about the plant sale, contact Lori Kennedy at 360-417-2279 or lkennedy@co.clallam.wa.us.
