Our business is to supply you with a quality product. We specialize in working with small to medium size businesses to provide a complete line of live annual and perennial plants for every season.
We can work with not-for-profit organizations by providing plants for a plant sale.
We can work with corporate offices by providing plants for on-site landscaping; however, we are not experts in designing your landscape. If you need these services, please consult a local landscaper, please see our client list.
Our main customers are other greenhouses, garden centers, landscapers, and florists do not grow their own plants, or who grow some items and purchase other items as finished or prefinished products.

New Harvard
Study Reveals Factors That Impact Employee Well Being, Commitment and
Productivity
Expert
Shares Keys to Building Successful Workplace Relationships
Business executives from the C-suite and HR, to QC and R&D are, by nature,
focused on the corporate bottom line. A new trend in our dawning age of social
sustainability is that many experts believe more attention should be paid to the
dotted line – the one signed when a person commits to employment at a
company. New Harvard research validates this approach, affirming that trust and
purpose play a significant role in building successful, productive workplaces.
Some of the answers for fostering corporate purpose and trust can be presented
in three categories: environment, management and leadership.
§
Provide
Environmental Support:
Great employers
manage their physical environments as much as the workload. For example, studies
at Rutgers and Texas A&M universities have proven that something as simple as
adding flowers to the environment enhances moods, social interaction and
on-the-job creativity and productivity.
A
previous Harvard study confirmed that flowers have an energizing effect on
people at work. Other managers succeed by encouraging rewarding opportunities,
such as participating in a local cause marketing program or simply having
monthly team lunches or team-building exercises.
§
Practice
“Uneventful Management”:
Be ready for
crises but, on a daily basis, present yourself to your team and others as
prepared, calm and assertive. While there will evidently be unexpected
circumstances that require modifications and change, one’s leadership abilities
can help instill loyalty and trust. Honest, direct communications are both
expected and respected, and you should make time to reach out to your team on a
regular basis to keep them informed of progress and issues that they may face
down the road.
§
Exude
Leadership:
Employees commit
to leaders who demonstrate three qualities: confidence, credibility and
flexibility. Engage in substantive self-evaluation, acknowledge your weaknesses
and improve where necessary.
“Sometimes we get so overwhelmed with complex, capital-intensive innovations
that we miss the solutions right in front of us,” says Anderson, who also says
that a healthy work environment is a two-way street and encourages employees to
turn their cubicles into you-bicles. “Doing little things like adding flowers to
your workspace or taking a few extra minutes to get to know your co-workers will
make you happier at work.”
