About us

Find native plants suited to Pittsburgh’s climate, soils, and growing conditions, with practical guidance for choosing and caring for them.

Native Plants, Local Knowledge

Three Rivers Native Plants helps Pittsburgh gardeners choose native plants suited to the region’s growing conditions. From sunny borders to shaded spaces, thoughtful plant selection can support a garden that fits its site and needs less intervention once established.

A successful planting starts with practical details: light, soil, drainage, and the amount of space available. Use those conditions to guide your choices, and ask for help narrowing options when you need it. The goal is a garden rooted in regional ecology and built to thrive in its setting.
