About Our Plants We specialize in growing species that naturally occur in Virginia! Our native perennials are available in 4 inch, 1 quart, or 1 gallon pots. Shrubs and trees are sold as 1 gallon, 2 gallon, or 3 gallon plants. Our plants are grown with no sprays or chemicals. Most of our perennials are grown in deep pots, encouraging strong root development and healthy plants. We use a custom blend of soil made from local organic compost (Panorama Farms in Earlysville, VA) and coconut coir, a peat moss alternative. Fertilizer use is very limited, resulting in plants that understand how to find nutrients in the soil and are prepared for life in the real world! All of our stock is nursery propagated – we don't collect plants from the wild. Please visit the nursery to purchase plants. We do not ship. |
