Welcome to the Hidden Savanna Nursery web site. Our nursery has expanded! First, on the home front, we are happy to announce our son, Henrik, was born during this past September. Second, we have built an additional greenhouse to increase our spring inventory. And finally, we have added over 25 new species to our existing selections. We now have over 200 native species for you to choose from.

We are located in southwest Michigan and sell plants that are native to our region. Nearly all of the plants we propagate will be Michigan genotype with most of our seed sources being located in southwestern Michigan. For a select few species which have become rare (or even extinct) in Michigan, plants from seed that originated in northern Indiana, northeastern Illinois, or southern Wisconsin will be available. We specialize in upland prairie and savanna species, but we also offer a selection of both wetland and forest species. Small quantities of seed will also be made available for species that cannot readily be grown in containers; this will be noted in the species description.

Please visit our Plant Information page for a list of species we typically grow. This page includes cultural information and is sortable. You can select individual species for photos and additional infomation.

We will not be shipping our plants; they will be available during spring and late summer sale days at the nursery. If our retail sale days do not fit into your schedule, or if you are looking for an appointment to more thoroughly discuss your project, we encourage you to contact us to pre-arrange a date and time to visit the nursery.
