Last-Minute Gifts at the Spring Perennial Exchange and Plant Sale
If you're still searching for the perfect gift for Mother's Day, stop by the Spring Perennial Exchange and Plant Sale in Milwaukee's Garden District. Taking place at the corner of 6th Street and Norwich Avenue, this event starts at 10:00 AM on Saturday. Not only can you find beautiful plants to gift, but you can also bring your own!
If you need to thin your flower beds, mark your plants with their name, height, and color, or bring them to trade, the exchange is a great way to share other garden goodies like bulbs, seeds, and tools with fellow green thumbs. For more details, visit the event’s Facebook page.
