Our Native Plant Selection
One of the most frequent requests we get at plant sales and conferences is for a list of our native plants. We have now assembled a list of the natives we currently offer -- more than 500 overall -- and we're posting it here to make it available to all our visitors. We've included the common name as well as the Latin or scientific name. Be sure to contact us for sizes and availability, as well as to inquire about other varieties you're interested in. Not all species are available at all times.
