The honor stand is closed. I will reopen in May.
I am all done selling plants for 2025!
I have seedballs for sale. I have single species seedballs (milkweeds and a few other species) and mixed species seedballs for sunny dry and sunny wet conditions. Contact me for details.
About The New Yankee Garden
About 10 years ago my son found a caterpillar on the rue plant in our garden. I was a city girl and had actually never seen a caterpillar 'in the wild'. I learned it was an Eastern Black Swallowtail. I needed to know more. Then I kind of became obsessed with providing host plants and attracting more and more butterflies and caterpillars.
As I learned about host plants I kept coming across information on native plants. The more I got into planting to attract butterflies, the more I became interested in growing native plants to support native insects. Eventually I started growing native plants from seed because I could not find them in garden centers. I always ended up with more than I needed so I figured I might start selling them. And now here we are. Each year I add more and more species and take up more and more space in our basement!
You can find me most weekends fiddling in my garden and adding plants to the little honor stand I have. Stop by and chat anytime!
