Peninsula Conservation Center

Join the California Native Plant Society, Santa Clara Valley Chapter, for a Native Plant Seed and Cutting Exchange on Saturday, January 24 from 1:00pm to 3:00pm at the Peninsula Conservation Center (PCC), 3921 E. Bayshore Road in Palo Alto. Propagation is a year-round activity, and this is a great time to start new plants from cuttings as well as seeds.
This free event is open to all and provides an opportunity to share and receive both cuttings and seeds of native plants. Browse the diverse offerings, ranging from easy-to-grow to hard-to- find, and go home with cuttings and seeds of new native plants! We will provide coin envelopes for seeds but bring containers in which to carry cuttings home.
If you have native plant material from your own garden to share, we encourage you to bring it. If you bring cuttings, keep them cool and moist in a bucket of water. Label your cuttings to make them easy to browse – some gardeners attach helpful hints about growing; others display photos of plants in bloom. You may find it convenient to use <a href="https://www.calscape.org/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">www.calscape.org</a> for this – there is a link on each plant’s information page to make a printable sign for most native species and cultivars.
 Don’t have native plant material to share? No problem, as there is usually enough for all.
A couple popular gardening books will be available for sale during the event, including Seed Propagation of Native California Plants (2021 ed.), by Dara E. Emery and California Native Plants for the Garden by Carol Bornstein, David Fross, and Bart O’Brien.
Our Wildflower Ambassadors will be giving out free seed packets and information as well.
