Eventhough I keep waking up to frosty rooftops and occassionally watch snow mixed with rain falling from the sky as storms roll through, now is the time of year to watch for great plant sales. Nurseries begin sending out coupons, various garden club plant sale signs begin popping up on street corners, and the “regular” seasonal sale schedule reminders start showing up in the mail. Following are a few of my favorite spring sales. Consider hitting a few yourself!

• Seattle Tilth Edible Plant Sale, May 3rd from 9am-3pm at Meridian Park in Wallingford
• Lake Washington Technical College Horticulture Sale, April 25th-26th and May 2nd-3rd from 91m-3pm at the Lake Washington Technical College Greenhouses in Kirkland, WA
• Seattle Arboretum Plant Sales, Florabundance, April 26th from 10am-5pm and Sunday, April 27th from 10am-3pm at Magnuson Park in Seattle

If you have a favorite plant sale in the greater Seattle area that isn’t listed here, please let me know, and I will be glad to share it with our readers.
