Plant Sales
We sell native Hawaiian plants and Polynesian introductions. We have an extensive line of native ground covers, shrubs, and trees for the home gardener or commercial landscaper. You’ll find many hard-to-get natives, like endangered species and wetland sedges. We have many varieties of Hawaiian taro and other traditional crops for the home garden.
We do not sell plants on-line. The Garden nursery is open M-F, 8:30 a.m. until 5:00 p.m. We can also grow by contract to supply landscapers, private landowners and non-profits with plants for large landscaping projects, restoration plantings, and community projects.
Proceeds from nursery sales help support the Garden and its educational and conservation programs. Much of the nursery work is done by volunteers and school groups and by our after school propagation program, Ho‘okupu.
For more information, call the Garden at 808-323-3318, email to agg@bishopmuseum.org, or drop by the Garden to see our plants and talk to staff about your needs.
