Native Plant and Seed Share - Wild Ones Greater Baltimore

Fall is the perfect time to thin your gardens and share your spreading plants looking for new homes. 

Join us even if you are new to native gardening and do not have anything to share yet. We are happy to help new gardeners get started.

Event address at a private residence in Bel Air (Harford County) will be provided to registrants closer to the event date.

Guidelines:

1. Only bring healthy plants and seeds native to Maryland.

2. Bring bags or containers to bring your plants home.

3. Include any information you have available to share:

• Latin name (preferred) and common name
• Straight species or cultivar
• Plant description (height, bloom time, etc.)
• Preferred growing conditions
• Where the plant originated (local ecotype, native nursery, box store, etc.)
• Any other information of interest

4. Consider following best practices for new plants to reduce the spread of jumping worms and other unwanted pests.

• Suggestions for sharing new plants (not required): provide bare root plants, wrapped in wet newspaper or paper towels and in plastic bags OR rinse roots and repot plants in freshly opened potting soil.
• When receiving plants with garden soil (recommended): remove soil and rinse roots before planting. Trash the soil (do not compost).
