Spring Plant Sale
Held annually each May-June, the spring plant sale features a wide variety of UVM-grown veggie starts, herbs and flowers. Perfect for home gardeners! A full catalog will be available in early May 2026.
Fall Plant Sale
From September - October, the campus greenhouse offers its annual fall plant sale featuring several varieties of Chrysanthemums (mums), which add a gorgeous pop of color to fall garden landscapes. Several houseplants, such as succulents and cacti, are also available.
Odd Ball Plant Sale
Once a year, the campus greenhouse identifies assorted duplicate plants from the conservatory collection and odd plants collected over time. You might find something unusual or exotic because the plant selection varies every year. The "Odd Ball" sale is typically held around Halloween. Previous sales have included specialties like Clivia, lemon grass, assorted cacti, large and small succulents and bonsai.
Plant Rentals
The main campus greenhouse is home to several varieties of foliage and flowering plants that are available for rent to the UVM community for special functions and events. Visit the greenhouse to see what's in bloom.
