Plant sale at the Botanic Garden #dundeewestend

The Friends of the University of Dundee Botanic Garden will be holding a plant sale this Saturday – 2nd October.


It will take place from 12 noon to 3pm and will take place in the Botanic Garden car park.

The Friends add :

“We are grateful for any donations on the day, but please can you split clumps into smallish chunks for ease of sale.   Also we’d be grateful if plants can be clearly labelled with the name.   Colour is also helpful.

As before, plants will be priced in units of £1, so come with your real money if you are buying, and bring a box or a bag to carry home your treasures.”

All welcome, as always!
