Beautify your garden with free plants provided by other local gardeners – and do the same for them! Here’s how it works:

Several days/weeks before the Swap: Pot up your plants (do not pot up the day before). Label each one, ideally with common and Latin name, growing conditions, special care, flower color, etc.
Bring: Your labeled plants and (optional) refreshments to share.
Don’t bring: Common orange daylilies and any invasive species – use this list to screen your plant offerings. Hybrid daylilies are welcome, but the common orange ones usually end up in the compost pile.
When you arrive: Unload your plants and sort by the categories provided.
After the Swap: Socialize and visit the Arboretum’s collections.
No plants to share? Come anyway! Bring refreshments, socialize with other gardeners, and enjoy the Arboretum’s gardens.
