Mercer Arboretum Summer Sale

Post by mantis »

Tomorrow (Saturday, June 27) is the annual Hot Tropics Plant Sale at Mercer Arboretum. The sale is from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. We'll have tons of bamboo at never before seen prices (most prices have been slashed in half!) I'd post some examples, but I think Bamboo Outlaw would shoot me.

So come on out, enjoy the beautiful Houston summer, and buy some plants 8)

All set up. I did not get a chance to see the rest of the sale today when setting up. I will check it out in the morn. Anyone in the Houston TX area would do good to come to Mercer. This is another part of their fund raising and they always have interesting plants.
