We do not ship live plants.
The Native Plant Store is now closed for the 2024 season. The store will reopen February 2025 for preorders. Pickups will start after we have all of our 2025 stock, in late May. Plants will show as Sold Out until we open the webstore.
Where does our plant stock come from? We grow many plants from seed and also propagate seedlings from existing, mature stands in our gardens. Generally, we purchase plugs from Wild Type Nursery in Mason, Michigan, and bare-rooted trees and shrubs from Cold Stream Farms in Free Soil, Michigan. We also purchase native bare rootstock and plants from Walters Gardens in Zeeland, Michigan. The plants from Wild Type are grown in deep plugs. We pot them up in quart pots. You can be assured these plants will have strong deep roots 6-8” as opposed to the smaller starts grown in 2 - 2.5” pots.
We have added new shrubs, butterfly host plants, and perennials to our stock, some of which are suited for wetter and shadier conditions. You will find the plants in this order - Perennials, Grasses, Shrubs, and Annuals. We have added a search option by category to make it easier to find specific plants. This is located right above the plant listing.
The plants in our store are listed in alphabetical order by genus. Check out our special lists for Wet Conditions and Full Shade in the buttons below!
