Consider yourself lucky if you have a woodland garden planted with spring ephemerals. But exploring the awakening April landscape to discover them growing in the wild is even more fun! Take a guided walk at the home of Lindera Nursery in Sharon, CT. This gorgeous property boasts a charming nursery, wildflower meadow, seasonal creek, and a beautiful backdrop of rock outcrops ascending to the forest above.

From Lindera Nursery owner, Michele Paladino: The convergence of geographical zones on the Knibloe property has resulted in unique habitats for wildflowers. Acidic forested upland soils meet high mineral content silt loams, and the result is an environment that supports many spring wildflower species. Come walk the woods-edge to observe, identify and discuss North East native wildflowers at this special and fleeting moment of the season.

Advance registration is required. Sign up on the Lindera website.

An early spring plant sale featuring New England native plants grown by Tiny Meadow Farm and Lindera Nursery will run from 10am to 6pm at the same location. Both nursery owners will be onsite to discuss native plants and answer questions.
