Denver Botanic Gardens Hosts Annual Plant Sale With Expert Tips
Denver Botanic Gardens is preparing for its annual plant sale, a key fundraising event for the organisation. The two-day sale will offer a wide selection of plants, from herbs and fruit trees to perennials and annuals. Gardeners of all skill levels can also access online resources and expert advice during the event.
The sale runs on Friday and Saturday, with free tickets available online. Visitors will find horticulturists on hand to share tips on planting and care. The gardens have taken extra steps to ensure quality, including volunteer efforts to shield plants from recent snow and freezing temperatures.
Colorado’s unpredictable weather often makes gardening difficult. Erin Bird, the gardens’ director of marketing and communications, acknowledges the challenges posed by extreme conditions. To help, the organisation provides educational classes and online guides for low-water and general gardening techniques.
Proceeds from the plant sale will support Denver Botanic Gardens’ ongoing work. The event gives residents a chance to buy hardy, well-protected plants while learning from experts. Free tickets and online resources aim to encourage gardening despite Colorado’s tough climate.
