Sources of Ohio Native Seeds and Plants
The following is a short list of nurseries
offering native and nursery-propagated plants or
seeds. Many nurseries offer plants that have been
rescued with proper approval and this type of wild
digging is ethical and is a good source of native
plants. Supporting nurseries that propagate their own
stock or sell properly rescued plants helps
conservation efforts.
Nurseries that offer wild-collected plants should
not be supported since this leads to habitat
destruction. In addition, some nurseries use a
loophole and “hold” plants for 3 months and then call
them “nursery grown” even though they are actually
wild-collected.
It is hard to verify the accuracy of this list,
so inquire about the identity of the plant’s origin.
Note: This listing below is not necessarily exhaustive; nor is it intended to constitute an endorsement of the businesses listed.
