Adventurous gardeners everywhere, welcome to our website for 2012!  In business for 27 years, and gardeners for many more, we are a well known and popular destination nursery in southwestern Illinois, near St. Louis, Missouri.  Our specialty?  Plants that grow well in hot and humid summer climates and cold winters. Enter our website for truly unique plants, and amazing ideas on how to use them in containers and beds. Our tropical plant listing continues to grow, trial tested in containers and display beds throughout the nursery area. I adore nature friendly plants that attract beneficial insects and birds, and our list reflects that passion. I also love color, texture and architecture in my plants, and continually seek out a diversified plant palette that never seems to stop growing. Yes, I am truly among the horticulturally addicted! 
 Bill and I are especially proud to host a large selection of plants from the Missouri Botanical Garden Plants of Merit program (plantsofmerit.org). These under-utilized, lesser known plants are selected by the staff at MoBot for outstanding qualities and performance in our lower midwest climate, where hot and humid summers, cold winters, and wide climatic swings prevail. They are tough stuff!
