Library EventICPL Fall Houseplant Swap

Saturday, October 12, 2024 - 10:00am to 11:30am

10/12/2024 10:00am 10/12/2024 11:30am ICPL Fall Houseplant Swap

One of the best parts of having houseplants is sharing them with others. Do you have houseplants you'd like to share? Want to add something new to your collection? Join us for ICPL's Fall Houseplant Swap!

Each person may bring up to 5 healthy houseplants or rooted cuttings (no fresh cuttings please). Plant drop-off time is from 10 - 10:30 and the Swap will begin 10:30. Please be at the Swap right at 10:30. Last spring all the plants were gone in 10 minutes!

You'll receive one ticket per plant that you drop off, and each ticket will get you one new plant to take home from the swap. Once all tickets are claimed, if there are any plants left they will be free for the taking.

There will be no re-potting at the event. Rooted cuttings may come in containers of water or in a ziploc bag with damp paper towels. Please label your plants. If the weather is cold, please bring a plastic bag to carry your plants home in to protect them from cold temperatures.
