Thank you friends of Delaware Nature Society – our first ever online Native Plant Sale is now SOLD OUT! We are delighted and surprised by the overwhelming response.
We look forward to serving you next year and encourage you to support local growers and nurseries including our friends, Gateway Garden Center in Hockessin and East Coast Garden Center in Millsboro for all your native plant sale needs this year.
If you did not schedule a pickup appointment when you made your purchase, we will be reaching out to schedule a pickup time.
This year’s online sale featured more than 120 rare, unusual and favorite varieties of native wildflowers, trees, shrubs, ferns, grasses, and aquatic plants for all growing conditions.
How the Online Sale is Working
Shoppers selected and purchased all their plants at our online store. All pickups are by appointment only and were to be scheduled when you purchased your plants. If you made a purchase but did not schedule a pickup appointment, we will be reaching out to schedule a pickup time.
