Plant Sale shopper Shana has heard our call for photos, and responded with this photo of her Gallery Pink lupines, which are now in bloom. This plant is from the 2007 sale. Shana writes:

“This plant sits on the edge of a rain garden in the front of my house. I just expanded the garden and planted it with a bunch of plants from the sale (swamp milkweed, monkeyflower, turtlehead, blue vervain, side oats gramma, and more). If you’re interested, I can take pictures of this as they grow.”

Yes, Shana, please send more photos! And everyone else with plants from the sale — we’d love to see how they’re doing. Send them to photos@friendsschoolplantsale.com
