2018 Plant List (pdf)
The 2018 Tree and Shrub Sale is over.
The new list for 2019 will come out in the Sept/Oct issue of the GROUNDWORK.
The tree and shrub list is available in the Sept/Oct issue of the GROUNDWORK. Trees and shrubs are specifically chosen for the arid climate of Wasco County and surrounding areas in the Columbia Gorge. Native and naturalized, most are particularly suited for riparian plantings. Shrubs are mostly fruit bearing for wildlife plantings. Plants are bareroot, however, Ponderosa Pine and Douglas fir can be plugs (though we won't don't often know until we complete our nursery order) and Willows and Cottonwoods are cuttings.
Payment is required at the time of order. The deadline to reserve your order is typically around the end of January following publication of the order list. We place our nursery orders based upon customer orders. Therefore, species selection may be limited on orders placed after the deadline. Money will be refunded for those plants ordered after the deadline that we are out of. For those making large orders of a particular species (100 or more), please call ahead, the earlier the better to ensure availability from the nurseries.
We will continue to take orders after the deadline until all plants are sold. You can call after the deadline to see what we have left of a particular species to ensure availability prior to placing your order. Plant stock is typically received the first week in March. Orders are filled in the order that they are received and purchasers will be called immediately when the order is put together.
The links below are for plants typically found on our plant lists. However, we do try to change some species from year to year. Click on the plant names to access pdfs directly on the USDA Plants Database. All but Noble Fir, which is a linked pdf document on this server. All links open in new windows.
