Spring Plant Sale

33rd Annual Rhododendron Species Botanical Garden (RSBG) Plant Sale!

The RSBG’s Spring Plant Sale has something for everyone! It doesn’t matter if you’re a newbie, a garden snob, or anyone in between. More than 20 Puget Sound nurseries will offer locally grown plants chosen to flourish in your garden. The RSBG will sell collectible perennials and rare rhododendron species. Of course, there’s no charge for vendor enthusiasm and advice! Many of these vendors are wholesale only, so this is a unique opportunity to talk with them.
