A big fundraiser for Newton’s Arboretum and Botanical Gardens is being held on site tonight and tomorrow. It’s the non-profits annual Spring Plant Sale. Co-President of the Newton Arboretum and Botanical Gardens, Lana Wohlers, says the sale features many native and cultivated varieties of perennials along with annuals. She adds from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. tonight, there is a pre-sale at the Arboretum. 

“Five dollar admission and you get the pick of everything that’s for sale. Then tomorrow from 9 a.m. to noon, there is no entry fee. Just come and buy plants for your deck, patio, and yard.”

This is the thirty year anniversary of the Newton Arboretum and Botanical Gardens. The six acre site is located at 3030 North 4th Avenue East in Newton.
