Plant sale rescheduled for Jan. 29

Posted Jan. 14, 2016 at 12:09 p.m.

BOONE—Hundreds of easy care succulents, all grown by Appalachian State University students and community volunteers, will be on sale Jan. 29 at the Department of Biology Greenhouse. Sale hours are 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the facility located at 211 Dale St. off State Farm Road.

Prices start at just $1. Proceeds support all greenhouse education and operation efforts.

Succulents are sun lovers that like to dry out between watering. They tolerate cool winter window sills, and also grow slowly so repotting is needed infrequently. A few tropical houseplants will also be available.
