We are working to find ways to connect with and serve our customers during this time of uncertainty. Your health and safety are important to us. We are currently shipping plants from the nursery as well as taking appointments for nursery visits. Additionally, we can accept orders for "curbside pick-up" through our new Square store page located at https://carolina-wild-native-plant-nursery.square.site/. You are also welcome to call or e-mail us to place an order and give us an approximate arrival time and we will invoice you through your choice of Square or PayPal and have your plants pulled, boxed and on a cart for you in our driveway when you arrive!
Please be patient as we work on our spring events list for 2021. This year will continue to present challenges for us and our event sponsors, we will post information and updates as we have more information. As of January 15, 2021 we have only 1 event that we can confirm will be happening. Several others are looking at how best to proceed and we hope to be able to share more early next month.
Established in 2002, Carolina Wild is a family owned and operated native plant nursery located in Anderson, SC. We provide quality nursery-propagated native perennials, shrubs, and vines for the Southeastern United States. Our selection encompasses plants for nearly any condition. With over 100 species in our propagation program, almost everyone from beginning gardener to native collectors will find something different and unique for their garden.
The source of our parent materials is one of the qualities that make the natives we produce uniquely adapted to this region. Our plants are propagated from seed and stock materials that have been legally harvested, and most come from local sources. Habitats are not destroyed in acquiring our stock plant materials with the exception of rescue sites where destruction is imminent because of construction. Through the use of native plant material, we hope to encourage gardeners to use a more environmentally friendly and ecologically sound approach to gardening.
Our native plants are ideal for creating backyard habitats for wildlife, as well as enhancing butterfly and hummingbird gardens. Whether you are creating a new prairie, woodland, or wetland, or restoring an existing site to its former natural glory, we hope to provide the wildflowers needed to achieve your goals.
We strive to provide an exceptional value in our perennials. Our 3 1/2" pots are 5" deep, creating a well-developed root system that will allow for rapid establishment. Deeper roots at planting help to achieve durable drought and heat tolerant plantings in less time. Best of all, these containers allow us to produce a premium product that we can offer at significant savings over traditional one-gallon pots without sacrificing quality.
Our horticulturalists will be happy to assist you in choosing plants that are appropriate for your site when you visit. It is helpful if you make obervations about the number of hours of sunlight and the times of day you are getting that sun as well as relative moisture levels in the areas you wish to plant. Photos of your planting areas can also be helpful as we work with you to determne the perfect plants for your new garden or to add to your existing landscape.
