At Direct Native Plants, we are committed to helping restore the balance of our ecosystem to the way nature intended. Industry and development have destroyed much of the natural habitat on which plants and animals depend for survival, but by planting native plants we can help restore a natural balance.
Native plants aren't just for the birds and the bees! They can help clean our water, purify our air, and provide food for the insects pollinating our food sources. Without these benefits, we as a species would cease to exist. Change starts in our own backyard with some simple adjustments to the way we do things.

Direct Native Plants was born out of desire to get native plants into more backyards - not just in faraway woodlands and wetlands! We already had success (20+ years strong now) in expanding the use of native plants to the restoration/reforestation industry with our parent company, American Native Plants.

LOCAL RESOURCES - your local university cooperative extension and native plant society can be great starting points when researching native plants. Homegrown National Park - A grassroots call-to-action to restore biodiversity and ecosystem function by planting native plants and creating new ecological networks.
At Direct Native Plants, we take many precautions to make sure your plants will arrive in the best condition possible. Our perennials are grown in a 4 quart-sized pot. These plants are then cut back to fit our packaging, placed in a protective clamshell container (made from recycled materials), and then shipped to you in a cardboard box.

I ordered two female winterberry plants and one male winterberry plant a week and a half ago and they were delivered via USPS this past week in perfect condition!

I also appreciate that they deliver within the continental US. It has been a hassle for me to try to find native plant nurseries that have items in stock and will ship to my area.
