The order window for this online-only plant sale has closed. (Window was Oct 8 through Oct 12.)
The NPSOT-Wilco chapter is excited to announce our ONLINE ONLY native plant sale this fall. We have acquired a superb selection of native trees and woody shrubs for you to choose from. Fall is the ideal time to plant in Texas! With the cooler temperatures and fall and spring rains, the plants will be putting down roots and getting established before our hot, dry summer arrives again.
To order some fabulous native plants, please click on https://npsot-wilco-plant-sale.square.site. [Note: if you click on the sale hotlink before 12:00am October 8, you can view the plants which will be available but the site will not accept your order until after 12:00 am October 8. This policy is in fairness to all.]
ONLINE sales will begin on the morning of October 8th and run through midnight on October 12th. The online form will require a valid credit card number to submit your order.
If you need to cancel any or all plants on your order, email us by midnight on October 12 at wilco-chapter@npsot.org.
If you want to purchase additional plants after you’ve completed an order, simply place a new, separate order for the additional plants only.
