NACOGDOCHES, Texas - Stephen F. Austin State University's Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ Gardens will host its annual Fabulous Fall Festival Plant Sale from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Oct. 6 at the Pineywoods Native Plant Center, located at 2900 Raguet St. in historic Nacogdoches.

The sale will feature a variety of hard-to-find, "Texas-tough" plants, including Texas natives, heirlooms, perennials, shrubs and trees, with an emphasis on pollinator-friendly plants, as well as exclusive Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ introductions. The featured plants are extensively trialed before being offered to the public and are produced by Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ Gardens' staff members and volunteers.

This popular event benefits the Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ Mast Arboretum, PNPC, Ruby M. Mize Azalea Garden and Gayla Mize Garden, along with educational programs that are hosted monthly at the gardens. Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ Gardens' educational programs reach more than 15,000 participants annually.

Parking will be available at Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ's Janice A. Pattillo Early Childhood Research Center, located at 2428 Raguet St. Visitors are encouraged to arrive early and bring a wagon for their plants.
