What we're all about

We started Toadshade Wildflower Farm to make native wildflowers, particularly perennials, more easily available. Our intention is to 1) provide native, perennial, propagated wildflower plants, 2) identify available plants clearly by both common and scientific name, 3) and clearly summarize the native range of the wildflowers for sale.

Accordingly, all of the plants that we offer are native (not alien, introduced, or naturalized) as well as we can determine, and they're all propagated here at the farm. For each plant species, we have tried to list the most often used common names, the scientific names, the preferred growth habit, and the native range based on information from a number of sources (see references below). I would encourage you to order plants that are native to your area. Planted within their native ranges, in sites appropriate to them, native perennial wildflowers will provide lasting color and interest for years to come.

The spring shipping season is now complete!

Order plants now to reserve them for the fall shipping season, which begins after Labor Day.

The 2008 catologue is still available. Request your copy today!

Let us know if you have any particular native plants that you're looking for. We always have new species coming along, so we may have what you are looking for (in small numbers.) If we don't have it, we'll try to add it to a future catalogue!
