Step Ups - Flowering perennials


Perennials make a great investment, and to make the most of your investment good initial planning will produce the most returns with the minimum maintenance. Selecting plants based on the location is the first step. Some plants prefer full sun, while others prefer partial sun and shade. Some will grow in most any soil while others need specific content to perform their best. Plant perennials for glorious color and texture to the garden and landscape all season long

The charm of a flower garden is the fact that it changes month by month, giving you new blooms to appreciate as spring moves into fall. The trick is to arrange your plants so that you will have continuous color all season long.

Skip a step with Step Ups!

Introducing, exclusively for Greenwood Nursery Club members and customers,
our NEW STEP–UPS ™ Perennial Plant collection.

What are Step-Ups ™? – Our perennials are cultivated and grown with an accelerated system. They are started in small containers, transplanted to quart containers, and then transplanted again to ONE GALLON SIZE CONTAINERS. This expands the root system, making our plants perform like a two year perennial the very first year. Step-ups ™ perform the first year you plant them.

you’re a step ahead with Step Ups!
