Native Plant Materials Directory

HOW TO USE THIS DIRECTORY

Each business is listed alphabetically with essential information about its operation, products, and services. Some businesses chose to pay for an enhanced listing that includes their name in larger print, their URL, and a more detailed description.

The location index provides an alphabetical listing of business by state, province, or insular area and by whether they produce plants or seeds.

Please remember that directories are out-of-date as soon as they are printed. Although precautions were taken to include only valid information, we cannot guarantee the accuracy of any given listing.

THE 2023 DIRECTORY

The basis for our directory is the database maintained by the USDA Forest Service, Reforestation, Nurseries and Genetics Resources (RNGR) team. Each year, representatives from the University of Georgia, Southern Regional Extension Forestry (SREF) contact one-third of the list to verify information. The database is also available and searchable on the RNGR website (http://www.rngr.net), which also holds a vast amount of information about growing native plants.

To report an error or omission, please contact SREF at [email protected].

In addition, each producer of native plant materials will have an opportunity to publish a free basic listing or an enhanced listing for an additional fee. For more information about this service or to report errors in current listings, please contact University of Wisconsin Press, Native Plants Journal Materials Directory, 728 State Street, Suite 443, Madison WI 53706-1418; Ph 608.263.0534; E-mail [email protected].
