The "Native Plants Journal" was established in January 2000 as a cooperative effort between the University of Idaho and the USDA Forest Service, with assistance from the Natural Resources Conservation Service  and the USDA Agricultural Research Service. The "Reforestation, Nurseries and Genetic Resources" (RNGR) department of the USDA Forest Service were the originators of the idea of having a journal that covers native plant species. This led to an agreement in the spring of 1999 between the Service and the Forest Research Nursery at the University of Idaho to publish material that would be incorporated into the first issue of the journal. The journal was published by the Indiana University Press between the fall of 2004 and fall 2010. It moved the University of Wisconsin Press in the spring of 2011
