Feral Flora principally grows Michigan-native plants from wild collected seed.

Additionally, we offer some 'nearly native' plants along with natives that are not Michigan genotype.

1 gallon: We are using square gallon containers that come 8 to a tray. The tray is 10.62” x 21.25”, and each individual pot is 5.25” wide by 5.93” deep with a volume of 117 cubic inches.

5 gallon: We are mostly using fabric pots from RootMaker but also  a variety of re-used pots.

Although we are growing plants with an explicit mission to sustain life in all its diversity of forms, there are several potential drawbacks to large-scale nursery production. These include plastics use, peat extraction, chemicals, and water use.

We are attempting to address some of these issues, and looking into future solutions. As part of our effort, we accept returns of our pots and trays in good condition for re-use, with the exception of the 3” pots.

We do not use any herbicides or pesticides in any of our production, and are evaluating the feasibility of moving to organic fertilizers.

Thank you in advance for helping us save resources.
