Plant Sale Volunteers

Plant Labels

We will be using stick on labels again this year.  You will need to have your potting containers clean and dry before you place the label on it for them to adhere properly.  Remember that your labels should already be on your containers when you drop them off for the sale.

As in the past, you may request your labels to be printed for you, or you can pick up blank labels and print them yourself using the Plant Label Templates below.  We have a huge compilation of plants whose descriptions have already been researched and saved in this template format ready for you to print.  If you can not find your particular plant, there is a blank template file that you can type your information into!  The blank labels are available for pick up at the Extension Office or at the monthly Master Gardener association meeting. 

If you need help with research or printing of labels, please contact Jane Ann Davis.  She will coordinate printing and pick up.

• Simply email your plant list to Jane Ann at mgjaneanndavis@gmail.com with Plant Labels as your subject line.
• If you have questions please call or text her at 731-988-6360
• Cut off date for label requests is Wednesday April 23rd

Ideas for Plant Propagation

This list is not all inclusive, but can give some direction for those who wish to contribute plant material to the sale.

If you plan to bring 15 or more of 1 type of plant/color, please take a minute to record that information in this group document by clicking the button below.  This will help us plan for space, labels, and will also be an aid for you all as you decide what plants you would like to bring.  Make sure to include flower color.  There are some plants that we can not have enough of. Ex: Hosta, Hellebore, Ferns, Herbs, House Plants, Vegetables  

For example: If someone signs up to bring 30 white yarrow, you may decide to bring yellow yarrow or pink yarrow!

Master Gardener volunteers will help you unload your donations and bring them into the building. Please record the number of plants you are donating. If you have handcrafted items you would like returned if not sold, please record your name, phone number and items to be returned on the Garden Goods list.

*We will NOT be going into the building through the main entrance because we want to be respectful of employees and others who work there.
