The Plant store is now closed for orders.

  • I'm planning on one last round of sales toward the end of September of plants that I'll be potting up from a nursery bed I planted in the fall of 2022. I'll post the details and the time once I have the plants ready to go
  • Please see the Using the Plant Library  page  for some tips on how to make the most of the information here to select species for creating a healthy native plant community suited to the conditions of your site.
  • Please see the Plant Nursery for a photo of the different sizes/prices on offer and for information on the sizing of these seedlings and the details of the sale
  • Species that were not seeded, didn’t germinate or that are sold out are marked with an asterisk *

* Hydrophyllum virginianum, Virginia Waterleaf

~I still haven't succeeded in providing these with the conditions they require for germination so they won't be available for 2023~

Hydrophyllum virginianum 

Virginia Waterleaf

  • Average to high moisture soils 
  • Partial to full shade
  • 2’ Tall, 12” wide, spreading to form a patch if they are happy with their location 
  • Spring Blooms
  • Ontario native, thrives in Open Woodland and Forest ecosystems

I have had poor success when it comes to germination of this species in the past, but I’m giving it another try with seeds from Prairie Moon Nursery https://www.prairiemoon.com/hydrophyllum-virginianum-virginia-waterleaf-prairie-moon-nursery.html 

These are a woodland species, thriving in areas with consistently available moisture, where they can spread to form a dense patch.

Please check out the Prairie Moon listing at the link above for more details.

While it rarely comes up, I do reserve the right to limit plant quantities, mostly to help ensure that as many native plant gardens as possible become a reality
