Terra and her team are great to work with and very helpful in providing information about the native plants. They have amazing ideas to assist you with your project. The quality of the plants are top of the line.
I have put in plants from the nursery in several areas on our farm with great success. It is great to see not only the beautiful grasses and flowers thrive, but the various types of bees, birds and butterflies that flock to these plants are wonderful.
