Choose from a nice selection of shrubs, native plants, perennials, and annuals.
Come back often, as the plant selection will change and expand throughout the growing season!

Garden Gate Plant Shop purchases are a sustainable investment!
The funds generated from your purchases go directly to the Friends of Green Spring (FROGS) and are then budgeted to restock and enhance the gardens. Did you know that plant purchases for the display gardens are almost entirely supported by the generosity of FROGS and other donors?
'The Garden Gate Plant Shop started in the 1990s as a card table sized operation to sell surplus rock garden plants...Over the past 10 years, sales have doubled, growing to just over $50,000 gross revenue by the end of 2014. More than 6,100 plants were sold. That's a lot of garden and window sill enhancement!'
