Red amaryllis flowersThe Women of the University Community (WUC) will hold its annual plant sale this year to benefit three endowed scholarships: The Mildred Eggers, Ruth Tolley and Beverly Whaley Scholarship Funds.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the annual poinsettia and wreath sale will not be able to be held. Instead, the WUC is partnering with Flower Power Fundraising to sell beautiful Amaryllis (six colors) and fragrant, easy to grow Paperwhites kits. The WUC will receive 50 percent of all plant sales which will go directly to scholarship funds.

Individual bulbs are $22 each and the value kit (three bulbs) is $58. Plants will be shipped directly to the delivery address indicated at a flat shipping fee of $6.

Orders must be placed online by Nov. 30 and are guaranteed to be shipped by Dec. 1.
