Highest Quality and Amazing Customer Service!

Whether placing a large wholesale order or planning a small local project, the folks at 3 B Natives are great to work with! Their plants are of the highest quality and their years of experience offers a wealth of knowledge to customers. I have enjoyed watching the amazing growth of many thriving local native garden projects that began with 3 B plants, and I look forward to the next opportunity to work with Terra, Wendy, and the rest of the crew at 3 B Natives!

Wonderful Customer Service and Plants

3b Native Plant Nursery went above and beyond for me to receive my plants in Indianapolis! Terra was super patient in pulling plants for me and helping me decide what I needed for my project. I am super indecisive and she didn't hesitate to pull more plants last minute. My plants are thriving in the newly planted hellstrip. I will be ordering more plants soon!
