This year we even have exciting news! We’re partnering with the NOVA Loudoun Campus Parking Office to offer credit and debit card transactions for the first time ever! That’s right! No more worrying about remembering the exact amount in cash or forgetting your checkbook!

From 11 am to 5 pm on 11/28 and 11/30 , the Loudoun Campus Greenhouse located at 46447 Ankers Shop Cir, Sterling, VA 20164 will be open to the public for general sale.

This year we have 16 premium and unique varieties, some of which won’t be found anywhere else in the area! Each 6.5″ pot is $10 and includes a hand wrapped decorative pot foil, a support stake, a protective paper sleeve, and care instructions.
