Visitors to our website use native plants to support pollinators and herbivorous insects. While pesticides and fungicides can be useful in nursery production, certain formulations persist on plants after purchase, resulting in harm to insects in the landscape. We respectfully ask that you answer these questions to the best of your ability, so that our visitors can make informed decisions about the materials best suited for their plantings.

Xerces Society for Invertebrate Conservation researches the pesticide residues on nursery plants, and we have borrowed their wording for the following questions. For more information on growing bee-safe nursery plants, visit their website here: https://xerces.org/pesticides/bee-safe-nursery-plants
