Native Plant Resources

It's Spring!!

Time to think about what you will choose for your garden or that pot on the balcony. EVERY plant makes a difference!

Here is a quick collection of links to resource information about seeds and plants.  Some links are hot, otherwise just copy and paste.

Before you buy seeds for native perennials, be sure that they have been cold moist stratified (CMF) if required for that particular plant. If not, buy a plant and you will have seeds come fall.

This website provides loads of resource info including help in narrowing down the choices for your particular conditions. eg woodland edge shade, dry sandy, clay, full sun etc.
