Each year, members of the Native Plant Society of Texas (NPSOT), Austin chapter, grow native plants that you may not find in typical retail garden centers. These plants are ready for new homes! All proceeds from the sale support the mission of helping people learn about native plants by using them in their own landscapes.
When and Where
- The Spring Plant Sale will be on Sunday, April 26, 2026, 11am – 3pm (or until all plants are sold out)
- At the Dowell Ranch Preserve, part of the Native Prairie Association of Texas
- 301 Farm to Market 1626, Manchaca, TX 78652
Plants will be arranged by plant form category (trees, shrub, etc) and within the category in alphabetical order by scientific name.
Come early for the best selection, but no shopping before 11AM. Bring a wagon, basket or box for shopping. Please do not bring dogs as this site is a preserve.
NPSOT members will receive a 10% discount on plant purchases. You must have a current paid membership of the society to be eligible for the discount.
