We’ve added the online store link to the Fall 2024 Native Plant Sales info so you can browse the store ahead of the pop-up online plant sale. The store will be open for taking orders from noon on October 13 to noon on October 16.
This fall season, we have these sales:
Oct 13-16, noon to noon – Online Pop-Up Native Plant Sale
Nov 2, 11am-2pm – In-Person Native Plant Sale
All the information for both sales is on our Fall 2024 Native Plant Sales page
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.
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.
We only sell Texas native plants, and we try to make sure everything we sell is well-adapted to grow in Williamson County.

[Updated 9/29: in person start time is 11am. Short online sale added. Link to 2024 Plant Sale summary page added.]
IMPORTANT=> Sept 29 Update: See our 2024 Fall Native Plant Sale page for the most up to date plant lists and information about the in-person sale and the pop-up online sale. (The post below was first published in July 2024. It will not be updated with new lists.)
Save the date! The NPSOT–Wilco Chapter’s Fall Native Plant Sale will be held 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 10:30 AM – 2 PM11:00 AM – 2 PM or until we run out of plants.
Most of the plants will be in one-gallon sized pots, which is appropriate for fall planting. At this point, we are not planning on having an online pre-sale of trees as we have in the past few years. We are not doing away with online sales forever. It just doesn’t look feasible for us right now.
See our tentative sale list at this link => 2024.07.17-Fall 2024 Sale-preliminary list.PDF. (Can’t open the list? See the note at the end.) This is not our usual descriptive list with prices and sizes; that will come in October. Several plants on the list are the offspring (grown from seeds) of our native plant rescues in the county. Those will be noted in the October list.
If you are seeking plants that are not on the list, please send an email to me at wilco-chapter@npsot.org and I’ll hunt for it.
We only sell Texas native plants, and we try to make sure everything we sell is well-adapted to grow in Williamson County.
