28th Annual Wildfower Sale at The Brandywine Conservancy

Gardeners can choose from a superb selection of low-maintenance, beautiful native plants at the Brandywine Conservancy's 28th annual Wildflower, Native Plant and Seed Sale, May 10 and 11, from 9:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. This popular event offers a wide variety of regional plants and seeds that are suitable for sun or shade and all types of landscapes.

Natives plants are a great way to "go green" because they are adapted to the local growing conditions and require less water and intensive care in the garden. Many varieties will attract songbirds, hummingbirds and butterflies and are as useful for strengthening our local ecosystem as they are low-maintenance additions to the garden. Wildflower seeds which have been collected from the Conservancy's gardens and meadows and cleaned and packaged by garden volunteers will be sold.

For more information about the sale or becoming a garden volunteer at the Brandywine Conservancy, contact Mark Gormel at 610-388-8327.
