The kits will include three plants of four different species, which are selected based on bloom time and their attractiveness to pollinators. See the list of plants.

The plants are grown at a certified organic native perennial farm in New Hampshire and come in quart size biodegradable pots. You can purhcase a kit of 12 plants (three plants of each species) for $65, which is a highly discounted price. The kits will be available for pick-up towards the end of May.
