Orders are Now Closed for Phipps Conservatory’s Online Native Plant Sale

Phipps Conservatory and Botanical Gardens Online Native Plant Sale is now closed for 2025. Phipps Garden Center on either Sat., May 3 from 10 a.m. – 4 p.m. and Mon., May 5 from noon – 6 p.m.

We are selling strips of 4 or 5 native plant plugs. These are perfect for planting quantities of the same plant to create beautiful drifts that are beneficial to local wildlife. This sale features 17 plants native to our region. These are plants that not only feed and foster native bees, butterflies and birds; they are also disease and pest resistant, will not spread aggressively and need little additional care once established. These plant strips will make easy work for creating a new garden or expanding an existing flower bed.

To make things even easier, we now offer four plant packages. These are collections of plant species grouped together based on their preferred growing conditions. Along with your purchase of a plant package you will receive a suggested garden design to help your create the perfect garden bed for different site conditions. We have packages for both full sun and shade.

Ordering is open now through Sun., March 23. Items on this website are not available to be shipped and must be picked up at Phipps Garden Center in Mellon Park on either May 3 or 5. We cannot guarantee the quality of the plants picked up after May 5.
