Native plants are flowers, grasses, trees and shrubs that have inhabited Michigan since before European settlement. Each year, we collect native seeds from West Michigan and propagate them in our greenhouses. The Native Plant Sale features more than 100 rare, unusual, and favorite varieties of native wildflowers, shrubs, and grasses for all growing conditions, including drought-tolerant, rain garden, and shade species.
When the online native plant sale is open, orders are fulfilled on Thursdays and available for pickup on Fridays from the glass house at 1750 East Beltline Ave. SE, Grand Rapids, MI 49546.
Proceeds benefit educational and stewardship programs at the preserve. Thank you for your support!
