    The Morris Arboretum will host its annual Plant Sale at the the Arboretum’s Horticulture Center at Bloomfield Farm, across the street from the Arboretum’s public garden. This year, there won’t just be plants on display. The Horticulture Center is itself a display in the best practices in sustainability having been recently awarded Platinum Level LEED ® Certification, the highest rating of the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC).   Morris Arboretum’s 2011 Plant Sale will once again showcase an unusual and hard-to-find selection of plants this year. In annuals, the colorful favorites and tasty selections of vegetables and herbs will be offered, plus an exciting selection of plants for attracting butterflies and hummingbirds to the garden. Look for Agastache aurantiaca ‘Apricot Sprite’ and ‘Navajo Sunset’, Fuchsia triphylla ‘Gartenmeister Bonstedt’, as well as several types of Salvias and Pentas . Both sun-loving and shade plants will be available.
