Nursery Information

Sources of Native Plants (Wholesale and Retail)

Purchase your native plants from sources as close to home as possible even though this list covers a wide geographical area. Please make sure when purchasing the plants that they are nursery propagated not collected from the wild. Each nursery listed in this publication varies in percentage of natives sold. A retail nursery is where one can purchase small quantities of planting material and can answer questions about plant problems for the home gardener (landscaper). Wholesale nurseries sell plant material in large quantities but may not be a resource in diagnosing plant problems for the individual homeowner.

Disclaimer. Use of commercial businesses on this list does not suggest any preference, recognition, endorsement, or approval by the Alliance for the Chesapeake Bay, Inc., National Audubon Society and Audubon-Pennsylvania. This list is provided as a resource for individuals interested in purchasing native plant stock. Individuals should contact the nurseries directly for the information concerning a particular plant.
