Plugs, Bulbs & Seedlings

Introducing – Roots & Shoots!

We have retired from selling cut flowers.
Our new and evolving goal is bring you specialty and unusal varieties of flower seedlings, plugs, perennials, woodies, bulbs & tubers. We want to help YOU grow the same amazing cut flowers that we have been selling for over 10 years.

We sell to all kinds of flower lovers – cut flower farmers, flower farmer ‘wannabes’, garden clubs and backyard growers.
Our ‘niche’ is annuals, perennals, bulbs, roots, tubers… anything that makes a nice cut flower.

We trial new varieties as they emerge, and we can also source specific varieties you are interested in.

We grow some of these plants ourselves. Others we source from larger greenhouses in Canada and the US.

You do not need to be a business to order from us. But some of our sales have minimums.

Our sales are seasonal. We do not operate a nursery with regular hours.


Below is a description of our seasonal sales. And subscribe here to get email notifications when various sales are opening.
And note – all our shops are at a NEW link – coming soon.
