At Morning Sky Greenery, we take care to produce high quality native plants that adapt easily to harsh environmental conditions. Our plants are not heavily forced for quick sales and mass market. Rather, they are carefully grown: hand watered & fertilized, acclimated and even overwintered to ensure their healthy growth when placed in a natural setting. We grow our plants using integrated pest management (IPM), which means that we use a variety of methods at our production facility to control insects and diseases. We do not rely on highly toxic chemical pesticides and herbicides to grow them. Our plants are grown in a variety of containers. The advantage of these container-grown plants is that they may be transplanted in the spring, summer, and fall. They may be kept in their own containers until you have the time to plant them. These plants are available in ´SOXJSDFNV SODQWVSHUSDFN DQG³SOXJSDFNV SODQWVSHUSDFN 7KH\DUH DOVRDYDLODEOHLQ´ ´SRWVTo find the sizes of individual plants, please look in the product columns of the plant list inside this catalog or on our website. If we do not carry a particular size you are interested in, we will custom grow large orders in the size pot you prefer. In our continuing efforts toward environmental stewardship, we wash and reuse pots from a variety of sources, so pot sizes may, in some cases, vary slightly. Our plants are typically shipped to you through UPS or other major carrier. However, please inquire about special delivery of shoreline and other large projects. We pride ourselves on individual customer service. Our dedicated, informed staff is happy to work with you to find the right plants for your individual needs. We encourage you to call or e-mail us with your questions.
