PlantSelect

The next few weeks hold some of the best spring plant sales in the region.

Botanic garden sales are where you’ll find the good stuff - Plant Select favorites, new 2026 introductions, and a few harder-to-find gems.

These events are often open to the public, but registration may be required.

Thinking about ditching your lawn? Start now.

If turf conversion is on your list, spring is your moment.

Come summer, it takes way more water to establish new plants.
Cooler temps + spring moisture, hand or drip watering (allowed in drought) = a much easier, smarter start.

Plant now, and you’ll use less water getting plants established.
Wait until summer, and you’ll be fighting heat, evaporation and higher demand.

Smarter timing = less water, better results.
