Hey friends! If you’ve been around Southern Illinois for a while, you might know our story—we’ve been growing here since 1987. But if you’re new, welcome! What started as our parents' 138-acre orchard has grown (quite literally) into a family-run greenhouse and strawberry plant nursery.
We’ve been planting, growing, and getting our hands in the dirt for over 30 years and, more than anything, we love being a part of this community—helping neighbors, fellow growers, and families fill their spaces with beauty, life, and homegrown goodness. We can’t wait to see you this season!

Can't wait!!!
Mother Nature might have a flair for the dramatic, but spring always wins in the end. Soon enough, the only ‘storm’ we’ll be talking about is a storm of color in our greenhouses!
Stay warm, Southern Illinois—better days are ahead!

A Year of Planning, Growing, and Curating for You
We've spent the past year processing your favorite sales, reviewing the most-loved blooms from last season, and attending trade shows to scout the latest and greatest in the gardening world. We've been hard at work, researching what you love and what’s new on the horizon, so we can bring you fresh, exciting, and beautiful blooms for this season.
See ya soon!
Can’t wait!

Looks like we’ve got some winter weather heading our way!
.
While snow might mean extra layers and slow drives, it’s a good thing for the garden. A blanket of snow helps insulate the soil, protecting roots from harsh temps, and as it melts, it gives the ground a deep, steady drink—setting things up for a strong start in spring. Even the cold itself plays a role, helping break down organic matter and keeping pests in check. So, while we wait out the winter, just know the land is getting the rest and care it needs.

Stay warm, neighbors!
Greenhouse prep is in full swing! We’re knee-deep in soil, seedlings, and all things green to bring you the brightest blooms for your spring garden. 🌸🌿
The cold is keeping us on our toes, and every day brings us closer to sunny days. We’re looking at you, April!
