Rain Garden Kit

Grower’s Choice Rain Garden Kit

Are you ready to manage your storm water in a more sustainable way? Dig a giant hole in your yard, run a downspout and plant some plants—if only it were that simple? There’s a lot to do before installing a rain garden like research, marking utilities and making calculations for how much water your yard catches. Take the guess work out of the plant selection and let us handle it.

This kit requires Full to Part Sun conditions with medium to wet soil moisture. Many rain garden plants can grow quite tall up to 5-6 feet, so plan accordingly.

Recommended for 30 - 50 sq. ft.

What’s in Each Kit

• 18x perennial and biennial plants in 3.5" pots (*NOTE: 2.5" Substitutions below)
• 4–6x different species, depending on which kit you choose
• 30–50% graminoids (grasses, sedges, rushes)

Pricing & Savings

Cost: $120 

Base kit Includes 18x - 3.5" pots 

*If 3.5" stock runs short, you may receive two 2.5" POWER PLUGS for any one missing 3.5" plant — same value, just smaller pots.

If you bought these plants individually, you would spend $135 for the same 18x 3.5” plants, or $126 for 36x POWER PLUGS  — so the kit saves you money right away despite the size of the pot you receive.

Why kits make sense:

• Instant money savings.

• Instant garden design.

• Instant ecological impact. 

Why we changed our Grower’s Kit format from 2025 to 2026? Previously, our kits used a higher number of 2.5” Power Plugs. They were great plants, but we found that newcomers to gardening struggled with spacing, layout, installation and maintenance with such small starts. The 2026 kits now features larger 3.5" pots because they lead to higher success rates! Typically, bigger pots = quicker establishment, faster bloom time and a smoother experience for first‑time native gardeners without breaking the bank on gallon sizes you get at most conventional garden centers. 

More About Grower’s Choice Kits

If you are new to native plants, overwhelmed by choice or looking to achieve a specific goal with your landscaping, our Grower's Choice Kits are a straightforward way to get started with confidence. We have a kit for many nearly any native landscaping scenario.

There's only one hitch…we pick the plants. Just like chef's choice in a restaurant, you ask the expert to curate the best selection for you. The plants in your kit will be based on current inventory, prioritizing a multi-season bloom range with a variety of leaf textures and complementary flower colors.

Worried about design layout?

Don’t be!

We will label the plants in three categories: “Matrix”, “Seasonal Interest” and “Structural”. Start by arranging the structural plants 36-48” apart and then fill in the gaps with the matrix and the seasonal interest selections planting them 12-18” on center. Easy, Peasy, Lemon Squeezy.

If you want help, bring photos of your site at pickup or email us — we’ll talk you through layout.
