Wild. Local. Beautiful.
Center for Native Plants is Flathead Valley’s only retail native plant nursery. We grow a diverse collection of plants—over 200 species of wildflowers, grasses, groundcovers, shrubs, and trees—that are native to Montana and the Intermountain Northwest. Located in Whitefish, MT, our plants are grown outdoors, making them hardy and well-adapted to our climatic extremes. Come by for a visit!

Benefits of native plants:
- Save water as they require little to no irrigation.
- Need little to no maintenance, such as fertilization, pruning, or replanting.
- Are adapted to the local soil and environment, making them hardy against our cold winters and dry summers.
- Have natural defenses against insects and diseases.
- Improve native pollinator and wildlife habitat for food, shelter, breeding, and nesting.
- Create a sense of place—from your own landscapes to your favorite wild places.
- Enhance biodiversity by restoring our quickly vanishing regional landscapes.
