Natives
What is Native? For us, a native plant is a plant in North America before the colonists arrived. What is Native to you? Is it also native to North America, or does it have to be to New England only? Or even more specific, native to the Atlantic Coastal Pine Barren on which we live, here on Cape Cod? We have you covered! We have taken care to offer you a selection of North American native plants that grow well here.
We are your local source for Natives- here are just a few we carry
