Welcome to Heritage Seedlings!

We are a wholesale propagator of unusual deciduous woodies, perennials, native plants and seeds for environmental restoration.

		Be among the top nursery firms in the country. Offer vigorous, healthy young plants to our customers, and a fun, rewarding place for our employees to work.

		Be a leader in environmental stewardship of our property, soil, and water resources. Use our employee talent and profit to help other growers, neighbors, public resource managers, school children and legislators understand that resource conservation is in everyone's self interest. It's our professional obligation to future generations.

To enhance our clients' success, we reliably propagate and deliver unusual seedlings, transplants, grafts and plugs of woody and perennial plants, and seed of select Pacific Northwest natives.

Our occupation should dignify who we are, not just what we do. Work should spark our imagination and offer daily learning opportunities. We aspire to lead our industry and cultivate a company culture of continuous improvement in our production practices, our plants, customer communications, shipping, and employee satisfaction.

Our clients recognize innovation and value in our relationship when they see that we are their business partner, not just a supplier. They look to us to lead them with the best options in new varieties, root systems, production and sales opportunities.

Our employees appreciate our advocacy for their workplace and career interests.

Our community and the nursery industry note our extraordinary standard in areas of volunteer commitments and environmental stewardship.

		When you contact us or see our plants, you note courtesy, fairness, and opportunity in our business relationship.

		We sell over 400 types of woody ornamental liners in small pots or bareroot from six inches to five feet tall. Here, you'll find exceptional rootstocks, a wide selection of rare seedlings from around the world, and the latest in cultivars propagated by grafting, tissue culture, or cuttings. Few firms match our availability and season-long selection in rare/unusual woody ornamentals. We also sell choice ornamental perennials and American native perennials for ornamental use and for environmental restoration.

		Emphasis on roots is fundamental to our propagation strategy. Greenhouse-propagated plugs with air-pruned root systems are offered directly from the greenhouse or transplanted by the hundreds of thousands to our raised field beds and immediately watered with drip tape.

		Year-round delivery for plug-grown items. Bare root plants are continuously dug in winter months and our large cold storage building allows us to ship dormant stock six months of the year, from early November until late April.

		Automated 5-acre retractable-roof greenhouse range.
		5-acres of winter protection (cold frames).
		140 acres of field-grown liner production, rotated for soil conservation and to match plant needs to soil conditions.
		500,000 cubic feet of cold storage.

		Heritage Seedlings was started in 1981 as a family business by co-owners Mark & Jolly Krautmann. It remains a family-run operation today.

		In twenty-five years, the business has grown steadily and now employs an experienced, diverse staff of 65 people, including 16 well-educated and experienced management employees.
