​

Why grow native plants?

​

Native plants are the corner-stone of our world and are key to the health and function of our environment; they have evolved to work together in unique ways with our regions challenging elements. They work with our local flora fauna to create habitats and provide food for wildlife, clean our water and air, and offer many other durable and practical solutions to difficult garden problems.

​

 Planting native plants offers us the best opportunity to create a resilient, healthy, and restorative environment!

​

Whether you are working to add a few pollinator host plants to your city patio, looking to replace your lawn with a drought tolerant "green mulch", or even working to restore a large area back to a functional eco-system, we can provide plants that fit your needs.

​

Our broad selection of sustainably grown perennials allows you to create a diverse & healthy ecosystem in your garden, regardless of your landscape conditions or gardening experience. 

​

 Beyond providing healthy & resilient plants, it is also our purpose to help provide equitable & meaningful experiences with nature for everyone, regardless of any of our perceived differences.
