Google Business is incorrectly reporting our location. We are working to resolve this.

We'll be selling plants at the Arlington/City of Alexandria Master Gardeners' Fall Festival
this Saturday, October 19th. The festival is from 10 am to 3 pm at Jerome "Buddie" Ford
Nature Center, 5750 Sanger Ave, Alexandria, VA 22311.

We're still at the Four Mile Run Farmers' Market Sundays from 9 to 1. We bring
preorders and a huge display of plants for sale.

The market is at 4109 Mt. Vernon Avenue in Alexandria, just below S. Glebe Rd.,
on Sundays from 9 am to 1 pm. There is ample free parking!

We offer free delivery to all Alexandria mailing addresses and all Northern Virginia locations
inside the Beltway. Call us for a delivery estimate outside that area. We're looking for other
pickup points throughout the area; if you have a commercial spot w/parking, let us know!

You can place your orders by email or call us at (703) 683-4769.

We offer an outstanding range of native trees, shrubs, perennials, and
vines, including many unavailable elsewhere in the Washington area.

Our innovative approach to landscape design will:

  • Reduce maintenance
  • Protect our precious Chesapeake Bay watershed
  • Replace vanishing wildlife habitat, and
  • Transform your yard into a sanctuary of breathtaking beauty
