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).

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!

I ❤️❤️❤️ native grasses!

I didn’t know that! Do they spread readily?
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.

The fifth annual Lands Green Waters Clean native plant sale is open now! Looking for something similar to what you brought home last year? Choose Virginia mountain mint (Pycnanthemum virginianum) or narrowleaf mountain mint (Pycnanthemum tenuifolium), both cousins to mountain mint (Pycnanthemum muticum). All three are pollinator powerhouses!
