King County: Cool Plants, Hot Topics: Become a Pollinator Protector

The WSU Extension King County Master Gardeners present “Cool Plants, Hot Topics,” the annual 2025 Master Gardener Plant Sale in partnership with the Bellevue Botanical Garden. This year’s theme is “Become a Pollinator Protector,” offering gardeners an opportunity to learn about the importance of pollinators while stocking up on plants for autumn and beyond and enjoying the beauty of the botanical garden. The Plant Sale will feature local vendors offering a variety of plants for sale. Our cut-flower bouquet table will return, with bouquets of colorful blooms for that spontaneous purchase. There will also be a table for seed sharing. Three local experts–Daniel Mount, Sue Melgaard, and Molly van der Burch–will offer talks about native plants, pollinators, and their place in PNW gardens. We will celebrate the grand opening of the new Habitats at Home exhibit, hosted by a panel of Extension Master Gardeners. The Bellevue Botanical Garden and the Plant Sale are free and open to all. The three talks will require registration and a small fee. Full details on our event page.
