June 15, 12 PM – 8 PM
Our annual Spring festival where you can bring your houseplants and swap them for new ones. For one day only, the island Pavilion is transformed into an orangerie, although you can bring your plants to the New Holland Infocentre throughout the week before the event. A professional plant-expert will be on hand during the day to give advice and answer questions on caring for your indoor plants.
During June 11–14 you can also bring an unwanted plant to the Infocenter and it will become a part of a Plant Swap on June 15.
This time we also accept requests to help you dilver big houseplants to New Holland Island. If you need help with delivery, please send us a photo of the plant with your phone number and adress to info@newhollandsp.com
Rules for the Plant Swap:
– Bring plants that you would like to swap.
– Taking a special card from a Pavilion administrator, write the name of the plant along with instructions for its care.
– Place the pot on the shelf.
– Select the plant you would like to take in exchange, letting the administrator know your choice.
