Evergreen
Deciduous
The shrubs we carry vary with the season and with what our growers have available. If there is something specific you are looking for that is not listed, call or come in and ask us about it.
All plants require more care before they get established. This means watering regularly, especially when it is over 85 degrees F outside. If you have questions about the plants you are purchasing and how to care for them, please ask one of our associates so we can give you a recommendation.
If you want a specific variety of something, ask about getting on our wish list. Keep in mind we are not able to fulfill every request because we are reliant on the availability of our growers. See wish list for more details.
