We've described a lot of ways the 2021 sale will be different this year, but what will it be like to shop at the sale this year, compared to the usual sale at the Grandstand?
When we had to pick which plants to sell at the 2021 plant sale in its special location outside and with fewer customers because of COVID constraints, we had to make decisions on what NOT to sell.
This year Minnesota Water Garden Society (MWGS) will be outside, next to the Garden Fair, selling a wide variety of water and bog plants (also good for rain gardens), both hardy and tropical, as well as goldfish, shubunkin, and koi.
These are the perennial edibles in the catalog. Some are in the Vegetable section, but others can be found in Herbs, Fruit, Perennials or Native Flowers.
Find out where many of your Friends School plants come from on Saturday in the Garden Fair (11:00 a.m., May 7). Gene Stark, founder of Glacial Ridge Growers, will share his new memoir. He’ll answer questions and sign copies available for sale.
