FYI for next year, The National Arboretum holds a native plant sale at the end of March every year in conjuction with their Lahr Symposium. One of the vendors was Doyle Farm nursery. They are located in Pennsylvannia just over the Maryland border, above Jarretsville. Their website lists native plant sales in the area they will be attending. (It's on their "tours and open house" link, http://www.doylefarm.com/events.html) One sale is in Fairfax VA, Saturday April 29. Others are being held at Ladew Topiary Gardens, The Baltimore Herb Festiva, etc., While they sell by mailorder its nice to see the plants you're buying. The plants I bought from them at The Arboretum, White Turtlehead (Chelone Glabra) and Nodding Ladies Tresses (Spiranthes Cernua) are growing really well. If you find any other sales in the Maryland area please post them, I'd love to know about them. :) -Helen

I'm interested :-). Actual availability is limited though. For what it's worth, I'm in AA County - between Baltimore and Annapolis. We haven't started our kitchen yet... I'm stuck in the planning until the money is available stage. ;-) I refuse to go into debt for it. Meanwhile I'm having a blast using and abusing my current kitchen so I can really see what I want in the future. As I said, I'd love to join in - but I'm unsure how available I am. Colleen :-)

Hi Christine, that's great. I don't think you have messaging turned on, can you message me? I am working every day and have a relative visiting so will be out in the evenings next week but I can leave them on my porch for you any time. While you are in the Balto area you should check out the Restore and the Second Chance warehouses.
