Lake Junaluska’s Spring Plant Sale will be 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday, May 3, at the Nanci Weldon Memorial Gym.  

For sale will be a few thousand plants, including an assortment of annuals, perennials, herbs and vegetables, hanging baskets and several varieties of native plants from the Corneille Bryan Native Garden, said Melissa Marshall, Lake Junaluska director of grounds. 

“This year we have added many fun new varieties of plants. We will have a variety of new colors in the way of annual bedding plants, eye-catching perennials, a nice selection of herbs and vegetables plus many native plants,” Marshall said.

This year’s sale will also have plant themed T-shirts, garden hats, gloves and other garden items available from Junaluska Gifts & Grounds.

Plants will range in price from $3 to $45 and can be purchased by cash, check or charge. Proceeds from the plant sale directly support landscaping at Lake Junaluska, where the grounds and gardens are open for all to enjoy and are made possible through charitable giving. Proceeds from the sale of the native plants will specifically benefit the Corneille Bryan Native Garden.
