Hays County Master Gardeners’ annual Fall Plant Sale will be online and inperson this year. This year we will feature Texas native and adapted perennials, grasses, shrubs and succulents and, of course, Texas Superstar© plants that will actually thrive in the hot Texas weather, unlike many of the plants found at the big-box stores. Members will be following CDC guidelines.
