Native Plant Sale Promotion
Sat August 29, 2020
The Park District is pleased to partner with Possibility Place in our first native plant sale this fall. Being able to offer local residents the opportunity to purchase these plants to help improve their landscapes is very exciting. Knowing your yard and the growing attributes (amount of light, soil moisture and size of the planting site) will help you choose the right plants for your needs. The plants offered will be listed under the 1 gallon heading on the attached link. There are many benefits to using native plants in your landscape, these are only a few –
- Using native plants helps restore the range of species important to local ecology.
- Native species are deeper rooted and can help increase water absorption.
- Native plants are adapted to local weather patterns and are more tolerant of changes, when sited correctly.
The sale will run through the end of October and deliveries will be made to Hummer Park on the last Saturday of September and October. Possibility Place will also generously donate 10% of every purchase to the District to help purchase native plants for our landscape projects.
Only one gallon plants are available for the park district plant sale, no perennials are available this fall.
Hummer Park delivery dates: Sept. 26 & Oct. 31
