    • Deer Resistant PlantsHere you will find deer resistant plants for the St Louis Missouri area. Bambi sure is cute but so destructive. But don’t give up, you still can have a garden by selecting plants that deer will leave alone. Deer dislike plants with strong scents and taste, and with textures that are hairy or not smooth such as Beebalm. Deer resistant plants include ones with thorns and some grasses with thin leaf blades. Below is a list of deer resistant plants  — but remember, no plant is “fool proof,” and what works for you might not work for a neighbor. We also recommend a variety of products, including Plantskydd, Bobbex, and Repellex. IMPORTANT NOTE: All plants listed here are offered in the nursery, subject to availability. Some of these plants may be ordered online for pick up at the nursery. We do not ship.

    • Rain Garden PlantsHere you will find rain garden plants for the St Louis Missouri area. WELCOME to our Rain Garden Plant Guide. Here you will find the best plants for rain gardens for the St Louis Missouri area. Rain gardens slow the flow of rainwater runoff by using plants and other elements similar to those found in nature. They can be shallow swales or depressions that catch and hold rainwater rather than let it run off unhindered. Plants with deep and fibrous root systems help make the soil more sponge-like, allowing the plants to absorb a large amount of rainfall. Missouri native plants are top choices due to their hardy nature. All plants offered here are available in-house, subject to availability. Some of these plants are offered online for pick up at the nursery. We do not ship plant.
