Plant Sale This Weekend - Update
Thursday, 07 May 2009
The Argenta Downtown Council is selling all of the spring flowering Azaleas that have been blooming in the pots on Main Street. The Azaleas and associated perennials will be available on Saturday from 7 a.m. till noon at the Argenta Farmer's Market. The sale supports the downtown planting and maintenance programs of the ADC.

The Red Ruffle Azaleas are 7 gallon size plants, about 30” in diameter, and will be on sale for $25.00 each. This Azalea is not in the Encore family of re-bloomers, but it puts on a big show in the spring. The Azaleas should grow to an average size of 4' wide and 4' tall in 3-5 years. They require an acid, well drained soil (just like we have in Argenta) with full to partial sunlight. Afternoon shade is a plus.

For further information or to reserve plants for a Saturday pickup, call Don Chambers.
