Native Ohio Plants, LLC

The nursery grows and sells only trees, shrubs and wildflowers that are native to Ohio, mostly southwest Ohio. Plants are grown from seed collected from local sources, propagated and grown outdoors at the nursery.  The goal is to enable customers to obtain plants that can thrive in their landscapes and eventually self-propagate, providing continued growth of native habitat for wildlife, including food sources in the form of foliage, seeds, nuts, berries, nectar, and pollen.
