Busy Bee Garden Center
Whether you're looking for the usual or the unusual Busy Bee is the place to be. Because we actually grow all of our own annuals, vegetables, herbs and perennials, we know our plants will perform well in your landscape. Quality over quanity is a belief that has set Busy Bee apart from other garden centers. We grow healthy, vibrant plants from start (seeding/plug/bare root) to finished product. You will not find the Busy Bee quality and selection at box stores or other wholesale-grown retail garden centers.
If you're not sure what you're looking for or need help with a project then Busy Bee's knowledgeable staff including seven Master Gardeners and two horticulturists will help you with your selections.
