31st Annual Plant Sale Oak Park Conservatory 615 Garfield Street, Oak Park sponsored by Friends of the Oak Park Conservatory www.fopcon.org 708-725-2460
[email protected] 2 31st Annual FOPCON Plant Sale Presented by Friends of Oak Park Conservatory For over thirty years, FOPCON volunteers and the Park District of Oak Park have joined together to provide the community with the very best in plants for our gardens. From the first “Herb and Scented Plant Sale” in 1989 until today, this sale has provided carefully grown plants while raising funds in support of our historic Conservatory. Most of the selections are grown in our own greenhouses using integrated pest management (IPM) practices providing healthy, sustainable plant products. Many of our vegetables, herbs, colorful annuals and perennials are pollinator friendly, providing nectar and/or pollination opportunities for native insects including bees, butterflies, moths, native flies, and hummingbirds: These plants are marked with an image of a bee. Due to current concerns related to the Coronavirus, we will not be hosting an in-person sale this year. All customers should order online and select a pick-up window: orders will be pulled and ready to be delivered to cars at that time. The catalog is arranged according to three main categories (the Edible Garden, the Ornamental Garden, and the Shade Garden). Within those three categories, plants are listed in alphabetical order according to their botanical name. We offer our plants in a variety of sizes; 4-pak of seedlings (4p), 4 inch pots (4”), or tall Quart containers. All pricing is noted in the catalog.
