6th Annual Native Plant Kit Sale!!!

This spring Lexington Living Landscapes and the Lexington Conservation Office are once again collaborating to bring you native plants for sale for your garden. This year we will be offering a sun kit with plants that do well in sun to partial sun and a shade kit with plants that do well in shade to partial shade. The kits will include three plants each of four different species. In addition, five different species will be offered a la carte, and for the first time, we are offering plugs of two species often used as lawn replacements.

Sun Kit	Shade Kit
Butterfly Weed (Asclepias tuberosa) Cardinal Flower (Lobelia cardinalis) Harebell (Campanula rotundifolia) Virginia Mountain Mint (Pycnanthemum virginianum)	Wild Geranium (Geranium maculatum) Wild Columbine (Aquilegia canadensis) Pennsylvania Sedge (Carex pensylvanica) Blue-stemmed Goldenrod (Solidago caesia)

Individual plants of five species will be offered a la carte: Cardinal flower (Lobelia canadensis), Pink Tickseed (Coreopsis rosea), Obedient Plant (Physostegia virginiana), Blue-Stemmed Goldenrod (Solidago caesia), and New England Aster (Symphyotrichum novae-angliae). In addition, plugs of two species – Pennsylvania sedge (Carex pensylvanica) and Wild Strawberry (Fragaria virginiana) – will also be available for ordering. Several additional species will be available the day of the sale on a first-come/first-served basis. According to Go Botany, all are native to the northeastern U.S., with all but Foxglove Beardtongue and Obedient Plant native to Massachusetts.

The plants are grown at a certified organic native perennial farm in New Hampshire and come in quart-sized biodegradable pots (except for the plugs). You can purchase a kit of 12 plants (three plants of each species) for $85 and a la carte plants for $7.50 each. The plugs are available in packs of 5 for $10.00 each. Plants must be pre-ordered through the Lexington Recreation Department’s website (https://lexrecma.myrec.com/info/activities/). The sale opens online March 10th 2026 and plants will be available for pick-up at 201 Bedford Street (the DPW facility) the morning of May 9. Anyone wanting to buy plants should set up a Town of Lexington MyRec account first at https://lexrecma.myrec.com/info. For any questions, please feel free to contact us at lexlivingland@gmail.com.
