2023 Plant List
Please note: We have different numbers of plants for each species. Germination rates varied widely, so for some species we only have a few plants and will run out quickly.
If you have a box or cardboard flat to carry plants, please bring that along. We will have some available but may not have enough for everyone.
If possible, we ask that you return the Conetainers that the plants are in so we can reuse them next year.
Thank you for supporting Golden Hills and our local environment by planting native!
