Coastal Plain Conservation Nursery, Inc. propagates wild-type native wetland and aquatic plants for projects in the Carolinas, southeastern Virginia, and beyond.  Unlike most nurseries, we don't just grow our plants for their good looks.  We grow them to improve water quality, manage stormwater, stabilize shorelines, and provide habitat for wildlife.

Our customers are businesses, government entities and nonprofit organizations.  They need plants that establish themselves quickly and reliably in rough sites, and persist through droughts, floods, and long hard freezes.  They need plants that thrive in the face of disease and pest pressures.  They need plants that will reproduce themselves for years to come, without ever becoming invasive.  And they need these plants delivered where they need them, when they need them, in a form that is easy and economical to install.

At Coastal Plain Conservation Nursery, we grow native plants that are

  • Genetically adapted to the Carolinas and southeastern Virginia
  • Propagated by seed to ensure genetic diversity and avoid contamination by noxious species
  • Container-grown in tall, narrow "large plugs" for low cost, fast installation, and reliable performance in rough sites
  • Removed from their containers and packed for delivery in protective, easy to transport bags, labeled by planting zone
  • Delivered to your site when your crew is ready to begin installation
