Product Description


Ordering has never been easier. We ship at the beginning of each week to minimize the chance or your garden spending the weekend without you. These beautiful plants are guaranteed to arrive in great condition and ready to plant. Plant gardens are scheduled to begin shipping in May.

The mix of plants in this Rain Garden are suited for areas that receive 30% to 70% shade. It is composed of all native floodplain species that can tolerate a wide range of soil moistures. Rain garden soil moistures can vary widely from soaked or submerged during wet periods to very dry in the summer or in drought conditions.
