Description
~ Hima Nursery was established about ten years ago to fulfill the ever-increasing demand for Pacific Northwest native plant material and passion for native plants. ~
We grow a range of species in sizes ranging from plugs to seven gallon containers. Offering a large assortment of quality material including ferns, native shrubs and grasses, as well as a small array of ornamental shrubs, Hima Nursery continues to supply high quality products to landscape trades, public municipalities, wholesale and retail nurseries.
Recently, with the purchase of a large, 80 acre tree farm on the outskirts of Everett, WA, the range of material being supplied by Hima Nursery has increased to include a vast selection of large trees, from 2" to over 7" in caliper. The nursery continues to grow (literally) and with that growth, continues to be on the cutting edge with quality, availability and supply.
