Welcome to the Macphail Woods Native Tree and Shrub Nursery.

Specialing in native trees, shrubs, ferns and wildflowers. Sales from our nursery help support our restoration and educational efforts. You support our Island environment and help support our work.

Here you will find information on purchasing, identifying, collecting, and growing your own native trees and shrubs. The Macphail Woods nursery has grown by leaps and bounds in recent years, and has become a major source of native plants for other habitat restoration projects around Prince Edward Island. These have included many school ground plantings and raparian zones around streams.

We offer planting ideas and solutions for everyone, from woodlot owners wanting to restore native woodlands to the urban homeowners interested in attracting wildlife. We have a great selection of native trees and shrubs to choose from in a variety of sizes.

Community Nurseries

Community nurseries are a source of inexpensive plants for environmental restoration, beautification or wildlife enhancement. The following pages lay out the steps you can take to start your own nursery, large or small. Since many of our more unusual native trees and shrubs are not available commercially, a community nursery may be the only source of these valuable species. The nurseries already set up across the province are promoting the use of native trees and shrubs, which must be present if we hope to preserve and restore natural ecosystems.
