Shrubs That Do It All
Ideal for hedges or decorative accents, our selection of shrubs serves both beauty and function. Standby favorites include Boxwood, Lilacs, and vibrant Hydrangeas.
Edible Gardening: Fruits & Vegetables
Choose from fresh cucumbers, hearty tomatoes like Cherry, Grape, and Primo Red, and peppers ranging from sweet to spicy to grow your own meals. For reliable tomato production, we recommend ‘Early Girl’ and ‘Roma’ cultivars for their dependable yields and robust flavor, perfect for any gardener.
Edible Gardening: Herbs & Spices
Add flavor to your dishes with easy-to-grow herbs like fragrant Basil, zesty Cilantro, and earthy Thyme. They’re perfect for beginners and seasoned gardeners alike. Basil (Ocimum basilicum) enhances the flavor of dishes while also drawing beneficial pollinating insects to your garden.
Grab & Go Planters
Our pre-planted floral arrangements are expertly designed to add a pop of color to your front porch or create a cozy backyard oasis. Hand-picked by our florists, these arrangements feature a variety of flowers, such as petunias, marigolds, and daisies, planted in nutrient-rich soil to thrive through the seasons.
Indoor Gardening
Brighten your home with indoor plants like Snake Plants, Peace Lilies, and Aloe Vera. These plants clean the air and are easy to care for. Snake Plants are especially good at removing harmful chemicals and releasing oxygen at night, making them great for bedrooms.
