Native
Plant Sale
Here's your chance to
purchase ferns, trees, shrubs, vines and wildflowers
that are native to Michigan. Plants that are propagated
from native genotypes are easier to establish in your
home landscape than non-native plants. We will have some
of the most sought after species that are not readily
available from local retailers. Come early for the best
selection!
