Kruckeberg Botanic Garden’s Mother’s Day Plant Sale and Open House May 6-9


Enjoy your local botanic garden on Mother’s Day weekend

At MsK Rare and Native Plant Nursery’s traditional spring sale, you’ll find the best selection of the year on choice native plants, spring bulbs and ephemerals, and unusual exotics. Since the sale is located within the Kruckeberg Botanic Garden, you can see how your plants will look as they mature. The sale has now been a Richmond Beach tradition for 23 years. 

All proceeds support operation of the Garden and its educational programs for the community. 

In addition to the sale, there is a free Garden tour on Saturday, May 8 and educational family activities all day on Sunday and Monday, May 8 and 9.

Due to limited parking at the Garden, all driving visitors are asked to use the off-site parking locations and shuttle service provided on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. The shuttle is fast and convenient, and all riders will receive a coupon to use at the Sale.

More information is available at the Kruckeberg website or by calling 206-546-1281.
