Garden Center, Nursery & Greenhouses

Display Gardens: Adjacent to our garden center, we have constructed display gardens featuring an assortment of flowering trees and shrubs, evergreens and perennial flowers. The gardens also contain gravel and fieldstone paths, granite and wooden benches, a water garden, small brick patio, a natural stream and a walk-bridge The display gardens have been developed for our customers' enjoyment and education. Seeing specific species of trees and shrubs at a more mature size and planted in combination with other varieties is very helpful when selecting plants for your own landscape.

Nursery: Evergreen carries an extensive collection of nursery stock. We have always maintained a wide variety of trees, shrubs and vines. The diverse selection of plants and their quality have been Evergreen's trademark for years. Our nursery contains various sizes of plants from the 1 and 2 gallon size potted plants up to large landscape size, balled & burlapped trees including the most popular varieties as well as those somewhat unusual and often under-used plants. We grow all of our own ornamental flowering and shade trees along with certain varieties of flowering and evergreen shrubs in our fields at Evergreen. We also grow many varieties of flowering shrubs, including a large number of native plants, in containers. Our Christmas tree farms located in Warren, RI is open to our customers in the fall for tagging.

Perennial Flowers: Evergreen's selection of perennial flowers increases every year. With the interest in perennial gardening on the rise again, we have over 500 varieties of perennials, wildflowers and ferns available. Our perennial display garden has been planted with over 100 varieties, many of which are our favorites.

Annual Flowers and Greenhouses: In late winter, we begin the process of growing annual flowers in our greenhouses. These spring and summer flowers are available in an assortment of sizes and containers. Again, as with nursery stock and perennials, we are noted for our diverse selection of annual flowers and hanging baskets. In late spring we begin growing hardy mums and ornamental kale and cabbage for fall sales. Our greenhouse becomes filled with poinsettia cuttings in August, which are grown in several size pots and are bursting with lush foliage and beautiful color in time for the holiday season.

Seasonal Newsletter: Evergreen' s newsletter is written in house and mailed to our customers three times a year. We share our horticultural experience and knowledge and give gardening advice for each season. The newsletter also includes landscaping articles, a question and answer section, a section where a featured tree or shrub and a perennial flower is highlighted, updates on what's new in the nursery industry and at Evergreen, and information on gardening classes and workshops available at Evergreen.

Christmas at Evergreen: During the holiday season enjoy a walk through our warm, sunlit greenhouse filled with many varieties of poinsettias grown here in four different pot sizes. Several types of English ivy topiaries are available in the shapes of wreaths, Christmas trees and more. We also carry flowering cyclamen, which make great house decorations or gifts. You can select a live Christmas tree or a freshly cut tree from our Farm in Touisset available the day after Thanksgiving or select a gift from our enlarged 'garden' gift shop. Our designers will custom make a holiday arrangement just for your home. We have holiday greens, door charms, swags, wall hangings, fresh roping (white pine, balsam, laurel, and mixed), custom made wreaths and custom made bows while you wait. At our annual workshops we help you design, make and decorate a holiday decoration (a Boxwood Tree or Candle Centerpiece) for your home.
