Fall is for planting – and for plant sales, too!
Branching out from its specialty, the Sacramento Perennial Plant Club will offer a lot more than perennials at a special “pop-up sale” on Saturday, Sept. 25.
To be held at 4440 G St., Sacramento , the sale will feature many kinds of plants, all propagated by club members.
“Plant club members have propagated a varied array of herbs, succulents, perennials, winter vegetables, and even a few trees for your fall gardening pleasure,” says member Linda Hax.
Sale hours will be 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday . Bring cash or check.
Club members will be on hand to help with planting suggestions and offer advice. Bring a box or other carrier to transport your sale discoveries back home.
Due to pandemic restrictions, patrons are asked to wear face masks while shopping.

Garden Checklist for week of Feb. 9
Be careful walking or working in wet soil; it compacts easily.
* Keep the irrigation turned off; the ground is plenty wet with more rain on the way.
* February serves as a wake-up call to gardeners. This month, you can transplant or direct-seed several flowers, including snapdragon, candytuft, lilies, astilbe, larkspur, Shasta and painted daisies, stocks, bleeding heart and coral bells.
* In the vegetable garden, plant Jerusalem artichoke tubers, and strawberry and rhubarb roots.
* Transplant cabbage and its close cousins – broccoli, kale and cauliflower – as well as lettuce (both loose leaf and head).
* Indoors, start peppers, tomatoes and eggplant from seed.
* Plant artichokes, asparagus and horseradish from root divisions.
* Plant potatoes from tubers and onions from sets (small bulbs). The onions will sprout quickly and can be used as green onions in March.
* From seed, plant beets, chard, lettuce, mustard, peas, radishes and turnips.
* Annuals are showing up in nurseries, but wait until the weather warms up a bit before planting. Instead, set out flowering perennials such as columbine and delphinium.
* Plant summer-flowering bulbs including cannas, calla lilies and gladiolus.
