Updated Plant List for Nov 2’s Native Plant Sale

The plant availability list with descriptions has been updated.  Plants which have been dropped from the inventory are still listed but with lines through them.

==> See the Fall 2024 Native Plant Sale page for the link to the new list and other details about the sale.

The sale is Saturday, November 2, 2024, at Southwest Williamson County Regional Park, 3005 County Road 175, Leander, TX 78641.  We will be in the pavilions (Boulder East and Boulder West) near the Quarry Splash Pad. Sale hours will be from 11:00 AM – 2 PM or until we run out of plants.

Of primary interest to some folks:

  • There will be several Cotinus obovata (American Smoke Tree) in 3/5 gallon size available.
  • New to the list of Monarch Butterfly larval plants, we will have Matelea biflora  (Purple Milkweed Vine) from Williamson County rescue parent plants.
  • Funastrum cynanchoides (Climbing Milkweed Vine) is now on the list.
  • Lonicera albiflora (White Bush Honeysuckle) has been added. These plants are the offspring of Williamson County rescue plants.  It has been many years since we have offered this plant. 

Hope to see you at the sale Saturday starting at 11 AM.

We only sell Texas native plants, and we try to make sure everything we sell is well-adapted to grow in Williamson County.

Fall 2024 Native Plant Sale UPDATES!

Headline news!  In addition to our in-person native plant sale on November 2, we will also have a Pop-Up Online Plant Sale this Fall, October 13-16. And we’ve updated the list of plants to be available at November 2’s in-person sale.

Updates are summarized below. See all the details about both sales on our Fall 2024 Native Plant Sale page.

Pop-Up Online Native Plant Sale – October 13 to October 16 – from Noon ‘til Noon

We’ll have twelve species of Texas native plants in five-gallon pots for sale.  All plants in the online sale are $40 each.  The list is short but all are excellent species for Williamson County landscapes. We have two species on the list that we have not offered before since we began having our sales in the county.  We have Cotinus obovatus (American Smoke Tree) and Prunus serotina var. eximia (Escarpment Black Cherry) available. 

As with our previous online sales, you order online and we will have your plants marked and reserved at the in-person sale for pickup on November 2.  If your plants are not picked up by 2PM on November 2, they will be donated to the Round Rock High School Plant Club.

See the Fall 2024 Native Plant Sale page for all the details and for the list of plants to be available during the pop-up sale.

IN-PERSON Native Plant Sale – November 2 – 11:00am to 2:00pm

The sale is Saturday, November 2, 2024, at Southwest Williamson County Regional Park, 3005 County Road 175, Leander, TX 78641.  We will be in the pavilions (Boulder East and Boulder West) near the Quarry Splash Pad. Sale hours will be from 11:00 AM – 2 PM or until we run out of plants.

News! In response to our August chapter meeting speaker, Casey Williams’ program on native Texas aquatic plants, we will have 5-6 species of those plants available at the in-person sale.  They will be from native Texas stock.  This serves as a “heads-up” to those who have been thinking about starting a “cowboy pond” (a galvanized stock tank from the feed and seed store) or other water feature and want native plants for it.  You will want to get it ready before you bring home the plants. 

News! See the Fall 2024 Native Plant Sale page for the updated list of plants we plan to have available at the in-person sale.
