Growing Northeastern Native Plants
Opening Earth Day, April 22, 2026
Full Circle Gardens is a nursery in Essex, Vermont, that specializes in sustainably-grown native and pollinator-friendly perennials. We grow what we sell by plugs, seeds or propagation. Our perennials are grown sustainably with the safety of our native beneficial insects and pollinators in mind. The quality of our plants speaks for itself. We believe our sustainable growing practices lead to long-lived plants with excellent transplant vigor. We carry a wide variety of natives and native selections, pollinator-supportive perennials, and rain garden/bioswale plants.
Because of customer demand and the increasingly urgent need to save and support pollinators and wildlife, Full Circle Gardens grows more native and pollinator varieties. We continue to grow those non-native varieties that are known to support local pollinators. While we eliminated many non-native varieties we have grown in the past, we grow many new varieties of Northeast natives. If you haven’t already, ask us how to succeed by landscaping with native and pollinator supportive perennials. We’re here to help.
What exactly is a native? For many horticulturists, it’s a very broad definition. Native to North America? Native to the East Coast? Native to the Northeast or even more localized? We can supply most natives that meet your definition. We do grow some varieties from seeds that are locally collected.
OUR POT SIZES
You asked, we listened! Many of our perennial varieties, especially natives, we will now be growing in 4″ pots. Of course, some larger varieties will still be grown in larger pots. Smaller plants mean smaller prices and easier transplanting. We also have a full 12 count tray discount.
Customer service and education is our priority!
