Take home a treasure from Brucemore's 1915 Lord & Burnham greenhouse at the annual Brucemore Plant Sale on Saturday, May 10, from 9:00 a.m. until 12:00 p.m. New for 2014, children are invited to create the perfect Mother's Day gift by decorating a potted plant. Several plants seen in Brucemore's formal garden will be available for sale, including annuals, perennials, and hanging baskets. Featured plants include a giant hosta named "Empress Wu," bleeding hearts, and varieties not found at other nurseries. A variety of herbs will also be available, including basil, thyme, and rosemary. Plant Sale prices range from $2.50 to $50.00 with all the proceeds benefiting garden and landscape rehabilitation projects at Brucemore. The garden staff will be available to provide expert advice on the selection, placement, and care of plants.
