Research & Development
WE BUY WHAT WE'D LIKE TO TRY.

Stonehouse Nursery pays attention to what our customers are looking for, while at the same time keeping a close eye on trends in the industry. In the past, having something "new and different" was enough to satisfy our customers. Today's growers and retailers demand not only a quality product but a plant selection that adds a nice mix of the "new" along with the "tried and true".

New plants are constantly being introduced to the market, but not all are garden worthy. It is important to us to be selective in our catalog choices so that we are confident the consumer will be successful.

When choosing plants to offer, it is valuable to have experience growing them both in the greenhouse and in the garden. This knowledge enables us to offer plants with good retail appeal while at the same time being reliable in commercial production. Through experimentation we are able to offer plants that will not only work for you, the grower, but also keep your customer happy, succesful and coming back for more plants!
