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.”

Meet the Locals

6 Common Yarrow

Achillea millefolium

Season long bloom!
Butterflies and small bees love the landing pads that the umbel bloom provides.

4 Showy Milkweed

Asclepias speciosa

Big flowers, bigger ecological résumé.
The clustered blooms are a nectar source for bees, butterflies, and other pollinators, while the plant supports a whole community of insects.

15 Great Camas

Camassia leichtlinii ssp. suksdorfii

Spring’s blue-violet showstopper.
A favorite with bumble bees, mason bees, hover flies, and beetles when early-season flowers are still in short supply.

16 Harebells

Campanula rotundifolia

Tiny flowers, surprisingly determined.
The nodding bell-shaped blooms offer nectar to pollinators and bring a little vertical delicacy to the garden.

7 Tufted Hairgrass

Deschampsia cespitosa

The quiet structural genius.
This native grass adds fine texture and year-round structure while making itself at home in everything from moist meadows to drier slopes.

5 Wooly Sunflower

Eriophyllum lanatum

Sunshine, but make it fuzzy.
Its golden flowers are a bright landing spot for pollinators, while the silvery foliage keeps things interesting after the flowers are gone.

14 Idaho Blue Eyed Grass

Sisyrinchium idahoense

Looks like a tiny iris. Is actually not.
Its small blue flowers bring early-season color and nectar to the garden.

7 Aspen Fleabane

Erigeron speciosa

Season long bloom!
Butterflies and small bees love the landing pads that the umbel bloom provides.

18 Roemer’s Fescue

Festuca roemeri

Lupinus rivularis

Blue spikes with serious ecological credentials.
Like other lupines, it supports native insects while bringing tall, cool-toned flower spikes to the garden.

7 June Grass

Koeleria macrantha

The understated one.
This compact native bunchgrass thrives in dry, sunny conditions and adds seed heads, texture, and structure without demanding the spotlight.

30 Early Blue Violet

Viola adunca

Small flower. Very useful plant.
Violets are important host plants for butterfly caterpillars, making this little plant more than just a pretty face.

3 Douglas Aster

Symphyotrichum subspicatum

Late-season purple power move.
Aster’s fall flowers keep nectar and pollen on the menu after many summer bloomers have called it a year.

3 Canada Goldenrod

Solidago canadensis

A late-season burst of unmistakable golden yellow.
Keeps nectar and pollen on the menu as summer flowers wind down.

1 Annual Seed Packet

The opening act.
These native annuals bring first-year flowers and habitat while the perennial cast gets its roots together.

Plants are living things! If something isn’t available or doesn’t meet our standards, we may substitute a comparable native plant. Plants will come in 4″ pots or bareroot bundles.
