No. While some plant sales require you to order a minimum quantity of 4-16 plants of the same species, our sale does not. If you want just one plant, we've got you covered at a great price! (Just $4 per plant)
When choosing your plants, you may wish to consider:
Site conditions are important to consider to provide optimal moisture and light to support the plant's best outcome and growth.
It's nice to have one or more species in bloom throughout the season to provide color and beauty, as well as food sources for pollinators.
Consider the height of the plants and where they will be placed.
Grasses often get overlooked because they don't offer a colorful bloom, however, grasses play an important role by providing a finer texture to the garden. Grasses often provide fall/winter interest to the garden. Additionally, they help provide support to the flowering plants in the garden. Grasses are a valuable partner in the native prairie.
Check out our downloadable/printable species list spreadsheet that includes site specifics, height, and bloom time for each species HERE
Plants are in pots that are approximately 2.5"x2.5"x3.5" deep
Generally, it's suggested to plant 1 plant per 12-18". Consider your area and use that spacing as a guideline.
Plants cost $4 each.
