Absolutely amazing place! Soo much knowledge and care from him and his wife! I could spend days here just talking and learning! Fabulous place to go for super healthy palms and trees!

50 years ago Gary landscaped our yard. So he and Missy have just finished landscaping an addition and replacing a few struggling bushes.He went to great lengths to find bigger bushes that would blend in with the old! I’d never use anyone else.

What a great experience. The only problem was deciding which of these incredibly healthy plants to take home! They were so helpful and knowledgeable.

Gary’s Nursery designed my beautiful gardens and flowerbeds and planted them when we renovated our house and yard 4 years ago. Gary and Missy have generously given me advice on their care, and have been happy to answer questions when I call. Neighbors and people passing by our house often stop and tell us how much they love our spectacular yard. BTW: I had never grown roses or palms before, but these are perhaps the most strikingly vigorous and “head-turning” features of all! I’ll include some photos I took today (April 14/2025).

Gary is the undisputed King of palms in the state of North Carolina. His prices are very reasonable & his selection is about the best you will find in this part of the country. I know all of this because I did hours of research before I finally made my move this morning. Gary has a passion for palms which are native to this state and climate. Listen to him and your warm weather plants will never conceivably freeze to death in the Tar Heel State.
