Working for 49 years in this business has been a blessing for both me and my family. And as I stated above, I'm not really retiring because I just can't do that, I just plan on working a little less and not have the responsibility that goes with managing a business.

I know they each have their thoughts and ideas of running a busin

Compare his lawn to a neighbor in the picture and you can see what a difference Ferti-lome 'GreenMaker' did for his lawn compared to the neighbor using a well-advertised lawn fertilizer. WHAT A DIFFERENCE! You will also find a picture of another lawn taken in March. We truly believe Ferti-lome products are the finest fertilizers and gar

Customers often want their plants and garden supplies immediately when they make a purchase, but they don't own a truck or trailer to take it home.

Like most nurseries in our area, we are often scheduled out from a few days to a week or more. Now you can buy all your shrubs, trees, potting soil, fertilizers, statuary, and more, rent a truck
