Native Plants

 

 

 

D&R Greenway Land Trust’s mission is to Preserve and Care for Land and Inspire a Conservation Ethic, Now and Forever. D&R Greenway’s Native Plant Nursery is dedicated to restoring a rich diversity of native flora to the local landscape by providing plants to the public. The nursery also supplies our preserves and restoration projects.

 


Now is the time to Plant Native!

When you plant perennials in the fall, you are working with nature!

In the fall, plants use less energy on growing flowers and foliage, so they can focus on building a strong root system both in the fall and also in the spring, as soon as the weather starts to warm up.

This could mean several months of additional root growth before the summer heat.
