JC Raulston Arboretum at NC State University – Garden Party and Rare Plant Auction, Sunday, May 5, 2019

RALEIGH, NORTH CAROLINA, USA, April 30, 2019 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Designed for passionate gardeners and featuring rare and hard-to-find plants, JC Raulston Arboretum’s annual Garden Party and Rare Plant Auction will be held this Sunday, May 5, 2:30-6 PM at North Carolina State University.

The annual Garden Party and Rare Plant Auction is the Arboretum’s signature springtime event, featuring a white tent afternoon on the Great Lawn with wine, craft beer, light hors d’ oeuvres, and live entertainment.

The highlight of the day will be a live auction featuring very rare and special plants that will go under the gavel of the auctioneer. Other collectible plants, garden items, and special surprises will be offered during a silent auction.

“The Garden Party is such a fun event and the best time of year to get together in one of the prettiest settings in North Carolina,” said Mark Weathington, Arboretum Director. “It would be a fantastic early surprise for Mother’s Day, or a great opportunity to celebrate a special occasion. The live and silent auctions have something for everyone.”
