100 (+) Square Feet of Native Plants

Go With the Flow

Got a spot with variable conditions? This garden can roll with it.These easy-going natives are happy in full sun to part sun and can handle a range of moisture conditions, from wet to dry spots and plenty in between.

Think rain gardens, spots that get wet in winter and dry out in summer, or anywhere you need plants with a little flexibility. The result is a beautiful, hardworking garden that creates habitat, helps slow and filter stormwater, and brings the B’s (bees, butterflies, and birds) to your yard.

How Much Work Are We Talking?

This is a DIY garden, so yes—you’ll need to get your hands dirty. But we’ve already done the plant research, design, spacing, and planning. You get to take it from here with the four tasks below.

Prep your site

Clear the planting area of grass and weeds and get it ready for planting. We’ll walk you through it in the getting-started guide.

Plant your garden

Follow the planting plan, get everyone in the ground, and water thoroughly. Everything is labeled, so there’s no botanical matching game required.

Help it get established

Keep an eye on water and weeds during the first growing season while your plants settle in and establish their roots.

Watch what happens

Your garden will change as it grows in. Plants get bigger. Flowers show up. So do pollinators, birds, and other wild visitors.

“I have never been more thrilled with the performance of a new garden bed. We planted our kit this April in the most inhospitable spot—a glacial till parking strip. The tiny plugs established so fast! They didn’t skip a beat in summer heat, and all the flowers were blooming this summer in time to help the bees. I also love that the plants are coordinated and go together beautifully. I can’t wait to see it next year.”
