Plants include herbs, shrubs, trees, veggies, native plants, grasses, annuals, perennials, plants to attract pollinators (bees, hummingbirds, butterflies) and, of course: our annual Plant Fair is famous for the quality and variety of our tomato plants … more than 40 varieties – including slicers, salad tomatoes, cherry, and plum types, many of which are heirloom. The Plant Fair covers the entire fairgrounds with one whole building just for tomatoes. The pavilion building is the new home for all of our other annual and perennial plants, leaving more room between plant tables for wheelchairs, wagons, wheelbarrows, and carts. Easier check-out, too.
For 46 years our Master Gardeners have been helping this community with its gardening needs – providing answers to plant production and plant problem questions.

Gardeners across the Northwest are hungry for safe garden shopping opportunities. At Hortlandia 2021, plant vendors from all over the Northwest will offer the latest plant introductions as well as the time-tested (and hardiness-tested!) plants. Complementing the plant vendors are specialty garden artists bringing one-of-a-kind pieces made from metal, wood, glass, ceramic, fabric, and stone. Each work of art is handcrafted by the vendor. Even though this year’s event will be smaller than our usual spring sale, we are creating a safe, fun space for shoppers to interact with nurseries and artists offering many plant choices and specialty artworks.
This year’s sale will be designed to comply with Oregon state regulations related to Covid-19. The rules continue to evolve. expect limits on the number of people who can be present at the sale at any one time. In order to comply with these regulations, we will be offering timed ticket entry for the sale. More details about this process will be posted in May 2021. Masks and social distancing will also be required and strictly enforced.
In 2020, we created a virtual Hortlandia with pandemic shopping and contact information for the Hortlandia vendors. Many of our longstanding nursery partners also took time to give us insights into their history and love of horticulture.
Read our exclusive interviews with some of Hortlandia's specialty nurseries.
In recent years, Hortlandia has featured the Grow With Us Lecture Series at the sale. While we can’t promise lecture programs at a 2021 Hortlandia, we are hoping that our other digital offerings this spring through the Gen(i)us Program and Garden Stories will help to fill your mind with new garden ideas.

Join us for a day full of botanical shenanigans, and tour our display gardens situated on the scenic Skykomish River!

Judith will be giving an informative fern lecture and mini plant sale at Joy Creek Nursery:
Sunday September 23, 1:00 p.m.
All About Ferns with Judith Jones
“The many evergreen and semi-evergreen ferns are mainstays in our gardens throughout the year. However, there are many deciduous ferns that have spectacular color as spring arrives. Judith reminds us that autumn is an ideal time for planting. Not only does rain return to the Northwest, but it is still possible to see where additional plants are needed after a long summer drought. Judith will bring a variety of ferns from her nursery for sale.”
Judith Jones is the owner of Fancy Fronds Temperate Fern Nursery in Gold Bar, WA, which was established in 1977. During the course of her lengthy fern career, she has been privileged to work with some of the world�s foremost pteridologists and fern enthusiasts. Her main areas of fern production are the named Victorian cultivars, new introductions, garden ready xeric ferns and marginally hardy tree ferns. Visitors to the Northwest Flower and Garden Show have seen the playful, yet educational, side of her talents in the delightful display gardens she has created with friends and colleagues. There is a $10 fee for this class, please pay the day off the class at the nursery.
