Description: We grow herbaceous perennials and shrubs native to Western Pennsylvania -- the Pittsburgh Low Plateau Section of the Appalachain Plateaus. We grow our own plants from seed collected locally in the wild. Currently we are growing about 85 species. We sell primarily to home gardeners, landscapers/landscape designers and for local restoration, wildlife habitat and public parks projects. We contract grow with a minimum of one year advance notice. We are a small but growing nursery. We love what we|re doing and offer workshops and talks on native plants in the landscape. Nursery tours are availabe to groups.
