The gardening tip of the month has been suggested by Ross and Terri Whitt, 2 Via Olas.
Saddleback College in Mission Viejo will have its spring plant sale on April 19-20. 9:00 AM to 5:30 PM. This is sponsored by the Horticulture and Landscape Design Department. The proceeds of the event will go to scholarships for students of the Department. Last year they raised $7,000.
In addition to contributing to a worthy cause, you will get some fantastic buys on hanging baskets, perennials, annuals and much, much more.
Please read the flyer that describes the plant sale:
