2025 Fall Plant Sale Update
At our recent Garden Lecture Series, Tryon Palace Gardens and Greenhouse Manager Mike Spafford gave us an exclusive look at standout plants featured in the Fall Plant Sale. This lecture focused on top picks for autumn planting plus expert tips on adding color, texture, and seasonal interest to your landscape. He also gave a sneak peak at the current plant list for the Fall Plant Sale.
While most of these plants will be available, this list could change slightly by the time the sale kicks off in October, but it does provide a look at the types of plants you can expect to be available for purchase. If there are any changes to the list, we will keep it updated here, so be sure to check back before the sale.
The Fall Plant Sale will be on October 10 and 11 from 9am to 5pm on the Daves House lawn.
