For a good many years, I have been growing wildflowers at my home as a licensed nursery known as Hawthorn Hill. My goal has never been to make money but to make a greater diversity of weildflowers available to the public. I believe that I have achieved this goal with the growth in the number of native nurseries and with my ability to grow my plants and sell them at my place of work - The USF Botanical Gardens in Tampa. With our Plant Shop open from Tuesdays - Sundays and a larger propagation area to work with, I can grow more plants than ever and make it easier for everyone to access them.
My last Open House is scheduled for Saturday, April 27, 9 am-noon and we will be selling everything we can before moving the plants we don't sell to the Botanical Gardens. We have ther largest diversity of species we've ever had. Below is the list. Some are currently in very short supply.
Most everything is in 4" pots, well rooted, for $5 each. The rare woody mints and a few others are $10. We prefer cash, but can take Visa & Mastercard as well as personal checks.
Jane and I hope to see you a week from Saturday - or later at the USF Plant Shop.
