This year there will be more than a dozen varieties, and you can get a list of the varieties in advance by emailing Beth Soltis at edgeary@comcast.net. Get these plants for yourself, as a gift for a gardening friend, or at 50 cents each, a last minute easily affordable gift for Mother’s Day from the children. The entire price paid for the plants goes to Casas por Cristo trip to Mexico!
