Annual Plant Sale
OUR ANNUAL PLANT SALE will be held on Wednesday, May 19, 2010 from 8am to 2pm We welcome all hands to help out on the day of the sale as well as for potting up plants, transporting plants to the Museum, setting up and breaking down the site. There is a task for everyone in the club - we hope you'll all volunteer to participate in one way or another. There will be sign-up sheets at the next club meeting, or you can call or email Jessie to sign up.
Please help distribute flyers which will be available at the April meeting. Give them to your neighbors, post them in your car window, or post them in stores you visit. We need everyone's help in getting the word out about the Sale. If you plan to pot your own plants please refer to the directions in this issue. Ready-potted plants must be brought to Jessie's home at 6 Coach Road before Friday, May 14, so they can be priced and labeled before being taken to the Museum PLANTS THAT NEED POTTING: We will be potting up plants on the days listed below. Please bring your plants to Jessie's (6 Coach Road) just before a potting session - we especially welcome your plants before the first session on April 20. When dropping your plants off, please be sure to attach the following information: name (common and Latin if you know it), color, bloom time, conditions (sun, part-shade, shade). The success of the Sale depends on us offering a wide variety of good quality plants to our customers. PLEASE look around your garden for plants that need dividing or that you would like to share with others. HOUSE PLANTS will be for sale again this year. Please bring your houseplants, especially unusual varieties, to Harriet Hathaway's glassed-in porch, 66 North Street. Harriet will transport them to the Museum for the Sale. Please include a card with each plant giving its name and the care you suggest. If you need help, have ideas or questions, call Harriet . GENTLY-USED TOOLS: Do you have unwanted or surplus garden tools? Harriet will also collect these for the Plant Sale. They too may be dropped off at her porch. (No baskets, please.)
