The following nurseries, garden centers, landscape designers, and landscape/lawn companies provide plants and services that support Colorado birds and wildlife. This is not a complete list. We do not endorse these businesses and provide this information only as a resource.
When shopping for Colorado native plants, use the scientific, botanical name. Common names vary from region to region and nursery to nursery and are sometimes also used for non-native ornamental plants of a different species. Example: the North American Linum lewisii could be called Lewis flax, blue flax, or prairie flax, and there is a similar European species that is also called blue flax or prairie flax.
