Southern Branch is the best place to buy healthy, native plants. Carly is awesome! She really knows her plants and has helped me many times in selecting just the right plants for our pollinator garden. Highly recommend going here!!

This is a wonderful nursery that stocks a wide variety of native plants. The staff is friendly and helpful and answered all my questions. It's a small business, owned by women veterans, which is a plus to me, and the prices were better than I saw at the big stores. Their plants are beautiful healthy. Last fall, I bought plant plugs from them, and all of them made it through an unusually cold winter. It is well worth the hour drive from the Peninsula and I will go there again when it's time to stock up.

Southern Branch Nursery is a true hidden gem and an absolute must-visit for anyone interested in native plants. This veteran woman-owned nursery has an incredible selection, beautifully laid out grounds, and a mission rooted in sustainability and habitat restoration. I came in with a long list of native plants, and to my surprise, they had every single one. But what truly made the experience special was the owner herselfβ€”she personally took the time to walk me through the nursery, explain the plants in detail, and help me find each one. Her knowledge, passion, and generosity made me feel completely supported and inspired in my garden journey. Additionally, she introduced me to Virginia’s Throwing Shade VA program, which encourages the planting of native trees and shrubs by offering discounts. Thanks to her guidance, I received a $25 discount on each native tree and shrub valued at $50 or more, totaling nearly $300 in savings. If you’re looking to create a pollinator-friendly, environmentally conscious landscape and support a business that truly walks the walk, Southern Branch is the place. I’m so grateful and can’t wait to return!

I contacted Wild Works of Whimsy to solve a few problem areas in my yard. The back and sides were long and narrow and with a slope, and the back was full south facing. I had a difficult time getting anything to live there besides Bermuda grass and I was tired of mowing. The yard was very ugly. Trista designed a beautiful yard full of native plants that has filled in incredibly since the end of April! The birds, butterflies and all types of bees love it. The yard also blooms in some capacity about 9 months out of the year. It is low maintenance and we don’t have to mow! Now when I come home I have a beautiful and unique yard waiting for me. Trista and her crew were great to work with and I appreciated Trista listening to what I hoped to accomplish. With her botanical expertise, she gave me a yard of beautiful, hearty and Sun loving scrubs and perennials!
