Welcome to Bluestem Hollow!
Hey, there! Thank you so much for promoting the native plants of the Ozarks!
Bluestem Hollow is a plant nursery specializing in native plants indigenous to the Ozarks region of Arkansas and Missouri. Started in 2023 and based in northwest Arkansas, our for-purpose nursery is rooted in an immense passion for environmental education and landscape ecology. We aim to empower homeowners, businesses, and agencies by giving them ecologically-driven land-management solutions, sustainably offering the highest quality native plant materials as well as expertise on how to successfully integrate your landscape with the local ecosystem.
Our Vision
Our vision is to offer ecologically sustainable and ethically-produced native plants for retail and wholesale buyers looking to incorporate native plants into their projects. We prioritize working with regional landowners to collect local-genotype seed ethically sourced from native habitat remnants to produce containerized near-wild type plants perfectly suited for landscaping and restoration projects. We never use systemic insecticides like neonicotinoids on our plants or grounds, unless required to do so by state law. Wild-harvest of plants is proving to be a major contributor to the decline of numerous plant populations. As such, we do not practice or support wild-harvest of plants. In cases where imminent population destruction of wild populations is unavoidable, we work with landowners to rescue and relocate populations to safe locations or incorporate them as nursery stock.
We are excited to assist you with providing Ozark-native plants for your home or business landscaping! Please check out our current availability or reach out if you have any questions!
