Beaux Arbres is a pioneer farmstead, settled circa 1830, now a native plant nursery. We specialize in plants native to the Ottawa valley and garden-worthy wildflowers from eastern North America. Our plants are nursery propagated — we do not sell plants dug from the wild. We use no pesticides in our nursery.

Trish, Any plans to add hierochloe odorata (Indian sweet grass) to your catalogue in the future?

Yes indeed! Thanks for asking. I am growing a patch of sweet grass for my partner Michael, who is a basket maker. I should have divisions ready to sell this spring. I don’t know when I’ll have seed – sweet grass is notoriously stingy about seed production.
