Come hear about which plants to avoid (and what to grow instead) from one of Indiana's best-loved garden experts.

The IndyPL Seed Library is great, but what is even better is learning what to do with those seeds!

Join Jo Ellen Meyers Sharp (The Hoosier Gardener) to learn why not every plant deserves pride of place in the garden. 

  • Which plants will take over if allowed?
  • Which plants don't live up to the hype? 
  • What should you plant instead? 

Get ready or follow up by learning from this book list about Plant Buddies.

About the branch

The Brightwood Branch opened in 1901 as the sixth public library in Indianapolis. It served the Brightwood community at several locations along Station Street, one street west of its current North Sherman Avenue storefront site which opened in 1972. A 1996 renovation at this location doubled the size of the branch to 5,400 square feet. In 2020, a brand-new branch building, across the street from the previous branch, was completed and re-named as the Martindale-Brightwood Branch.
