Welcome to the 2024 WNC Wild Ones Native Plant Sale
This year, we are offering 27 species of plants native to NC, with most found in the mountains. They have been grown from seed by WNC Wild Ones member Adrienne O’Brien. Most species offered have about 50 plants available – some more, a few less. Check out the Gallery for what Adrienne has been growing! The photos were taken a month before pickup, they will grow a lot more before then.
You can order online using the form below, or send an email to Adrienne listing the plants you would like and the quantity of each.
NOTE: These are small, first season plants – cell size is as follows:
Top: 1-5/8″; Bottom: 1-1/8″; Height: 2″. The roots are strong and will grow next summer. As an experiment, I grew many of the plants in 3″ deep paper/peat pots. The species that were happy did well. Others, were not as happy. However, I did grow back-ups in plastic trays – just in case…
Orders must be received by September 24, 2024
Quantities are limited and orders are filled on a first come, first served basis. We will email you if your plants are not available and you can make a substitute (preferred) or we can provide a refund.
