I you are an experienced gardener, you know that plants have specifc needs. I you can
meet those needs, you know that your plants will thrive and require little rom you later
on. The same is true or native plants.
Here are some things to think about when you order your plants:
What kind o soil do I have? Clay, sand, loam? Does it drain quickly or slowly? Is the site in ull or partial sun or ull shade? Will the tree or shrub eventually be too big, tall, or wide or the space? How ar is the site rom water? Will a hose reach? Will it impact your neighbors view, or yours?
Here are some common questions we are oten asked:
Do I have to water native plants?
For the first two or three years, you will need to water the plants to getthem established. How much you will need to water depends on the
weather. Dry, hot summers may require a ew more waterings. Water
deeply to encourage the roots to grow down deeply.
Do the plants need to go into the ground right away?
The plants you purchase are in
plastic bags and will need tocome out o those bags as soon
as possible, however, you need
to keep the roots/plugs rom
drying out. You can either pot
them up, plant them in their
permanent home, or heal them
in temporarily by placing them
in a garden or cool place withmulch over the roots.
Will I need a truck to pick up my plants?
Likely not, most orders will fit in
a trunk or on the floor o a car.
