Open House & Spring Sale
Sunday, April 29, 2018 10am-2pm
Hahamongna Native Plant Nursery will host an Open House and Spring Sale at its site in Hahamongna Watershed Park on Sunday, April 29 from 10 am to 2 pm.
The spectacular wild native plant garden at the nursery at the foot of the San Gabriel Mountains is now blossoming in springtime glory. More than 62 species are flourishing there, demonstrating the beauty and resilience of native plants. Riparian species, invaluable for habitat restoration programs are featured, along with a wide variety of sages, shrubs and trees for more urban landscaping applications.
Hahamongna Native Plant Nursery in Pasadena was started three years ago by the Arroyo Seco Foundation to develop appropriate plants and habitat for a stream restoration program in the Arroyo Seco Canyon. Now it also produces plants to beautify local yards and gardens. The plants were recently used to landscape nearby Linda Vista Library as a model for public facilities.
At the April 29 event, participants will be treated to a tour of the native plant garden and encouraged to take home a bit of the Arroyo to plant in their yard. The plants will brighten local homes and businesses, save water, provide food and shelter to birds, bugs, and butterflies, and serve as a constant reminder of the natural treasures of the Arroyo Seco.
