Why Grow Native Prairie Plants?
Manitoba Native Prairie Plants
By Did you know only 1/20th of 1% of the original tall grass prairie remain in Manitoba. By growing native prairie plants you are helping restore
Manitoba’s heritage and keeping alive the memory of what once covered this land. In addition to creating a beautiful landscape that is in harmony with its surroundings, you are providing habitat for wildlife, protecting edible and medicinal plants, and conserving water and soil.
Our Prairie Native plants are specifically adapted to the climate and soils of Manitoba and are vigorous and exceptionally hardy. They tolerate harsh winds, periodic drought, and severe winter weather. Many of them are long-lived perennials that come back from the same root system year after year. Once established, these plants are maintained with little effort and little resources.
We collect seed from our own nursery stock or with landowner permission from indigenous Manitoba prairie plants and use 100% natural fertilizers and non-toxic pest management on all plants we grow.
