LAST CALL 🌿 New for 2026: "Right Plant, Right Place" Plant Kits
Exclusively for our Pennsylvania Neighbors!

Love the idea of a native garden but don’t have the time to research? We’ve done the heavy lifting for you. Our new NATIVE PLANT KITS are "plug-and-play" solutions designed specifically for Pennsylvania’s unique climate and soil.

WHY YOU'LL LOVE THEM:
* PA-Hardy: 15 native plants grouped to thrive in our local environment (5 species, 3 of each).
* Zero Guesswork: Full-season blooms from spring through fall—all planned out for you.
* Simple "Pop & Drop": Just follow the included diagram. One kit covers about a 12x6' area.
* Scalable: For larger spaces, tile multiple kits together like wallpaper for a beautiful, pollinator-friendly pattern.

FIND YOUR PERFECT MATCH:
Note: These kits are currently available for Pennsylvania residents only for $49.95 each, plus applicable sales tax.

*Check the Light: Watch your garden for a day. Does it get 6+ hours of direct sun, 3–6 hours, or mostly shade?
*Test the Soil: Dig a small hole and grab a handful of dirt.
--Dry: The soil falls apart and won’t form a ball.
--Wet: The soil clumps easily or holds water long after it rains.
--Still Unsure? We’re here to help! Reach out and we’ll find the right fit for your PA yard.

Order now and pick up & pay on April 27-May 3. Let us know what date/time works best for you.

Kits come with 15 plug-sized plants, a laminated plant details & garden design card, and a push stick to aid in removing the plugs from their tray.

We are busy removing protective frost cloths and waking up our plants, which are grown in sync with nature—not in a greenhouse. I always get so excited seeing those pops of green break through the dormancy. Message us for our Spring availability—both retail and wholesale. All plants are chemical free and pollinator safe! The nursery officially opens April 10.

Wild rabbits survive winter on dry grasses and bark. Fresh vegetables cause GI stasis — a painful, often fatal digestive shutdown.

- Rabbit digestive systems are calibrated for low-moisture, high-fiber forage
- In winter, their gut bacteria specialize in breaking down woody browse
- Sudden wet vegetables ferment too fast, producing gas they can't expel
- GI stasis stops their entire system — they stop eating and die within days
- Wild rabbits don't recognize grocery produce as dangerous
- Leaving brush piles and unmowed edges helps them more than any food

You thought you were sharing your salad. You gave them a stomachache they can't survive.

On this gloomy Friday in January, I find myself longing to see this beauty again in my summer garden--Monarda punctata (dotted bee balm). Can you hear the bumblebees buzzing around too?

Plugs will be available this spring!

Merry Christmas all! 🎄

I’m running a little late, but the unexpected warmer temps this past week helped me get the rest of my 3,600+ plants to bed for the next 3 months. If you’re interested in seeing my native plant availability, send me a message.

Another white beauty that prefers a well-drained spot in full sun to partial shade--Silene stellata (starry campion). It primarily attracts moths, because the flowers are adapted to attract them: 1) white petals, 2) a long floral tube, and 3) a strong scent released at night.

It's a great year for Actaea racemosa (black cohosh), with just the right amount of rain/moisture here in central PA. I think it's my best year yet for this native species, which thrives in a part- to full-shade environment. Who doesn't love its whimsical, airy, and showy growth habit reminiscent of candelabras?! The flower buds are just starting to open and will provide a pollen and nectar feast for many pollinators, like bees, flies, and beetles. Plus, it's a larval host plant for several Azure butterflies.
