As glimpses of the Spring season appear in Susquehanna County, gardeners are anxious to get their hands in the dirt. Pollinator-friendly flowers, culinary herbs, family-favorite vegetables, and ornamental peonies are just a few of what gardeners will discover in the Master Gardeners of Susquehanna County Spring Plant Fundraiser catalog.
Selecting plants and flowers of different heights, colors, and bloom times can add interest, diversity, and enjoyment to home landscapes. The 2024 Spring Plant Fundraiser catalog features a selection of perennial and annual flowers for sun and shade, a variety of vegetable seedlings, and colorful combinations of blooms in hanging baskets.

Proceeds from the Spring Plant Fundraiser help support these and other Master Gardener outreach activities in Susquehanna County. Thank you for your support!
