Having a hard time finding any more space in your yard for native plants? We know the feeling. Pennsylvania sedge (Carex pensylvanica) and heartleaf foamflower (Tiarella cordifolia) are small species that will squeeze right in. Go on… you know there’s always room for a few more.

Looking for local-ecotype native plants? We get it; they're hard to find. Luckily, we still have several species, including New England aster (Symphyotrichum novae-angliae), heartleaf foamflower (Tiarella cordifolia), and Culver's root (Veronicastrum virginicum).
Act fast; sales close April 19. muddy-branch-alliance.square.site/

Did you know native grasses host many species of butterflies? Switchgrass (Panicum virgatum) and Big Bluestem (Andropogon gerardii) are host plants for the Delaware skipper (Anatrytone logan), which is on the state rare watch list!

Help out this adorable skipper by providing it with more Switchgrass and Big Bluestem: muddy-branch-alliance.square.site/

Have you been hesitant to garden with native plants because your local deer will decimate them? Not to worry. We’ve still got 11 species that deer dislike. But don’t hesitate any longer: our native plant sale closes April 19.

Choose Virginia mountain mint (Pycnanthemum virginianum) or narrowleaf mountain mint (Pycnanthemum tenuifolium), both cousins to mountain mint (Pycnanthemum muticum). All three are pollinator powerhouses!
