[Fuusm-l] Call for plant donations

[Rebecca Phillips]

Dear FUUSM friends,

Just a reminder that we are hosting a modified online-only plant sale for members and friends this year and are still accepting plant donations. Please send your list to me (bennphil at hotmail.com) by 11:00 PM on Sunday, May 24.
 However, because we are creating an online catalog, we will need very specific information from you:

  *   plant name
  *   number of plants/clumps/containers (because we can sell only as many as we have)
  *   size of plant/container (to allow us to price them for the online catalog)
  *   plant description--and if you have a photo, that is even better!
  *   whether it is a native plant (if you know)
  *   growing requirements (sun/shade, how much water, that kind of thing)

Here is an example of what I mean.
Rudbeckia hirta (brown-eyed Susan)--15 4-inch pots
Mostly yellow daisy with brown center. 2-3'. Full sun, drought-tolerant, deer-resistant. Good butterfly plant. Native to eastern US. Short-lived but self-sows. Does well in containers.

Please send your list of plants to me (bennphil at hotmail.com) no later than 11:00 PM Sunday, May 24. The online catalog should arrive in your e-mail inbox on May 30. Details on how to order will arrive in a later message.

Plant donors: we will be packing orders on Friday, June 5, so all plants will need to be delivered to the church courtyard no later than 9:00 AM on that day. All plants will need to be labeled so that our packing volunteers know what is what.

Thank you for all your contributions to our FUUSM community.
Rebecca Phillips
