North Carolina Wildlife Federation and Wildlife Habitat Stewards of Northeastern NC Chapter will be hosting a Fall Native Plant Sale, Sunday, October 13th from 1:00pm - 3:00pm.
Shop our collection of southeastern native perennials, grown locally in Edenton by Wetland Plants, Inc, an exclusively native plant nursery. The collection will include:
Blue Mistflower, Swamp milkweed, Spotted Joe Pye Weed, Oxeye sunflower, and Seaside goldenrod.
Planting native species is beneficial because they offer essential food and habitats for wildlife, ensuring their survival. They demand minimal upkeep, conserve water, naturally control pests, and promote environmental sustainability.
