Picking Prized Perennials of Practicality

Updated: 5 minutes ago


Open EVERY Day; Monday – Saturday 9a – 4p; Sundays Noon – 4p!


While the arrival of annual flowers and vegetables is always eagerly awaited, and yes—we do have a limited early selection—let’s shift the spotlight to the real MVPs of the garden: perennials! Specifically, our 4” pot-sized perennials are the unsung heroes of long-term beauty and value.


These little powerhouses may look modest now, but plant them today and by August, they’ll rival the size of a 1-gallon container—at a fraction of the price. At just $3.79 each, these perennials offer outstanding value, and if you’re looking to really stretch your gardening dollar, grab a flat of 18 for only $59.99. That brings your per-plant price down to $3.33, and yes—you can mix and match to your heart’s content.


Here’s the best part: this isn’t a sale. These are our everyday prices, and with hundreds on-hand, you’ll find plenty to love. But if we don’t have exactly what you’re looking for today, don’t worry—our inventory is always growing. Come back soon and be delighted by what’s just arrived!


We’ve got spacious, paved parking, new carts galore, and an ever-expanding selection to make your shopping experience smooth and inspiring.


This year marks our 93rd year in business and the 50th anniversary of our garden center. These milestones wouldn’t be possible without the dedication of my grandmother and father, whose vision planted the seeds for everything we offer today.


So, come see us—whether you’re planting a patch or a paradise. You’ll leave amazed, inspired, and ready to dig into a garden beyond your wildest plant-filled dreams! And when digging, we always recommend the pinnacle of planting mixes (with no peat) EarthMix®!  Whether you need a few bags, a couple of scoops, or a SuperSak™, we have what you need, the way you need it!


Every Saturday morning, we’re live at 8 AM (or delayed broadcast, any time), we provide our shared gardening experiences while answering your questions on: “Gardening Inside Out”. Listen to our Podcast anytime! Follow and contact us:  FacebookYouTubeInstagram
