Floretum offers grants to Edmonds District teachers for school gardens and
horticultural education. Floretum offers scholarships to high school or college students who are planning a career in horticulture field. These proceeds come from our annual plant sale and boutique held the first Saturday in May. Members donate perennials, bulbs, herbs, annuals, small trees and shrubs, container gardens and other garden-related items to sell to the public.

Floretum provides scholarships to at least two horticulture students each year.
