Spring Plant Sales Atlanta 2023

February 27, 2023 By Lucy Mercer Leave a Comment

Support Local Plant Sales

Spring is for planting and plant sales. Here are a few that are on my list for Spring 2023.

Plant sales take many forms. Some are mail order from nurseries, others are “extras” that gardeners dig up from their own gardens. Some are events that bring in nurseries that specialize in native plants.

No matter where you live, plant sales are great for beginner gardeners. It’s an opportunity to get plants that are likely to thrive in your area. (Of course, there’s a caveat to know what you grow. I’ve unwittingly purchased invasive plants from these kinds of sales). It’s also great to connect with experienced gardeners and growers who share their expertise.
