Hi I'm having a lot of difficulty finding native plants at my local nursery. I am looking for trillium, phlox, and native ferns. Do you know of any good sources for these plants?

Hi Carol,

Thank you,thank you, thank you! We have spent two years trying to find a good source for native Ohio plants. We were able to find bare root plants from Tnnursery.net. They were very reasonably priced and we are planting them right now. 

Happy planting, 

Renee Benns
