Join the Houston Arboretum & Nature Center for their Spring Plant Sale! They will be offering native grasses, flowers, shrubs, and trees – perfect for attracting butterflies, bees, and other pollinators to your yard or garden. Proceeds benefit the Arboretum’s conservation and education efforts. Plants are priced as follows:
- $4.50 – 4 inch
- $9 – 1 gallon

Members receive a 10-25% discount (depending on Membership level) on all plant sale purchases!
This year’s Spring Plant Sale will be located just inside the new 610 Entrance gate on the south side of the entrance road (the yellow star on the map). Shoppers are asked to park along the 610 Parking Loop and then walk over to the sale. There will be a small pull in area at the Plant Sale for people to load their plant purchases.
Join the many volunteers helping to plant a total of 1,000 trees in each section of Exploration Green. Snacks, water, and tools will be provided as well as planting training. Bring gloves, wear sturdy shoes/boots, and plan to get dirty!
Parking: The closest parking lot for tree planting events is located at 16203 Diana Lane, Houston, TX 77062.

On Mar. 24, Apr. 14 and 21 and May 5 and 19, 2018, from 9:00 am to noon, come plant the shores of Exploration Green Nature Park’s new lake. The wetland will cleanse stormwater and provide habitat for aquatic animals in the lake (which is, in fact, a nationally known flood control basin). Have fun while helping to improve water quality and create habitat! All are welcome to take part in expanding the wetland we’ve been growing and planting with the community, going on the third year. Children are welcome to participate with family members.
