About:
Babylon Gardens provides a free community service for recycling unwanted houseplants and salvaging overgrown garden plantings, thus generating merchandise for sale at the Santa Fe Farmers Market: Cheap Used Plants.
Exotic houseplants, primarily succulents and cacti, are sold year-round; with the sprouting of spring many perennials such as Maximilian sunflowers, daylilies, lamb’s ear need thinning; and all summer and into fall the bulk of sales is in iris, a plant which simply must be thinned to keep blooming.
