HAND CRAFTING OUR SPECIALTY PLANTS
Long-term relationships guide our meticulous plant development. We spend years carefully pruning and cultivating our specialty pants, using traditional Japanese practices to bring out the optimal qualities of each unique plant. Note: Many of our specialty plants require regular and proper maintenance (read about the value of maintenance: parts 1, 2, 3).
UNIQUE AND EXQUISITE
Many of the plants in our nursery are rarely seen outside of arboreta; they offer rare forms, textures, and interest that enliven our gardens and enrich our lives.
A FEW OF OUR FAVORITES
We grow a wide variety of plants at our nursery, including hard-to-find plant species and sizes. We also develop a number of deer-resistant plants, such as Native American Hollies, Plum Yews, Ornamental Pines, Pieris, and Japanese Maples.
We welcome you to tour our nursery and see our favorite plants for yourself!
