Perennials are carefully selected for this area. They will actually come back each year and some will even bring their friends.
We've chosen not to carry annuals. (There's a joke in the nursery business that "annuals" means the customers keep coming back each year to buy plants and "perennials" means the plants come back each year.)

Are yechy soil, rocks or sandy soils making your plants puny?Want a spring tonic for your lawn?Try topdressing or mixing compost with your garden soil.Be sure to wet the compost thoroughly before using.The composting process that kills the weeds and bad stuff causes the soil to actually repel water until it is thoroughly soaked. We carry compost from Cedar Grove or Silver Springs; it's certified organic and is weed free.
Ground bark makes a great mulch to help keep down the weeds and reduce water evaporation from the soil.In time it breaks down andenriches your soil. Compost and bark are sold by the cubic yard loaded in your truck.
Landscape Fabric, Bamboo Stakes, Fertilizer and Tried and True Garden Remedies We stock landscape fabric in 12' widths up to 300' per roll. Other sizes are available by special order, please call for current pricing.
We personally test all of the products we offer. We are chemical minimalists and believe that good plant culture and choosing the right plant will avoid most diseases and pests. But when you just have to kill that pest, we offer some real solutions.
Mycorrhizae Soil Drench or How to add Good Bacteria and Fungi to Your Soil Good healthy soil is alive with all kinds of microorganisms. These microorganisms aerate the soil, break down organic matter and make the nitrogen and other nutrients available to plants. (Highly simplified explanation, point is that this is good stuff for the soil.)
Plant Sucess Soil Drench is in a water soluble form. It contains 13 carefully selected mycorrhizal fungi, 2 tricoderma species and 17 bacterial species well-suited to a variety of soils, climates and plants. Plant Success contains mycorrhizal fungi that colonize an essential link between plant and soil, producing plants of the highest quality. Also included is specially formulated natural root biostimulant. The plant enjoys improved nutrient and water uptake, and superior field performance.
Pot Deposits and Recycling Nursery Pots Nursery pots are made from petroleum products and have become increasingly expensive.Rather than add the cost of a pot to the price of your plants, we list the price for the plant and charge a deposit on larger nursery pots.Simply return the pot with your receipt showing the deposit amount on your next trip to the nursery and we will refund your deposit.
We also accept 6” (#1 or ‘gallon’) and larger nursery pots in usable condition for recycling. Smaller pots are returned to the growers, given to the master gardeners, horticultural programs or to any other gardener that would like them.If you want some small nursery pots, just call or stop by, we usually have plenty.
