Only the Best Plants

My ‘semi-retirement’ will continue to include occasional shopping excursions at my favorite New Hampshire wholesale nurseries. Plant species are ‘beyond the norm’ and typically not available to consumers at local garden centers or big box stores. My wholesale purchasing ability means I can help you gain access to unusual, pesticide-free, New England hardy specimens at a reduced cost.

Each grower offers unique inventory, so it's not uncommon for me to source trees, shrubs and evergreens from one location and herbaceous perennials, ornamental grasses and groundcovers from another.

indigenous plants = maximum bio-diversity

I source mostly New Hampshire grown plants of exceptional quality that are:

  • native to our region of North America

  • grown without synthetic chemicals

  • beneficial to our native pollinators and insects

  • If you would like me to source plants for you, the cost is 2 times my wholesale price plus time and travel. Plant pickup is at my southern New Hampshire location (or I can arrange for delivery directly to your home or business).

  • If you would like to accompany me on a nursery visit, the cost is $400 for a half day excursion or $800 for a full day excursion. You will not pay an upcharge on my wholesale plant price and you will take your own plants home and/or schedule delivery directly from the nursery.
