We are located just outside Ithaca, New York in the Finger Lakes Region. On our website you will find separate pages explaining more about who we are and what we do. Some examples include: locally grown plants of old-fashioned high quality; healthy, pesticide-free nursery and landscape practices; complete customized and creative landscape services from design to installation; exceptional and friendly service from our staff, a great group of people; and natural display gardens on our peaceful, accessible nursery property.
Many of our customers are becoming aware of the unique, ecological landscapes we offer--from design to installation. For those of you who are just checking us out for the first time, what makes our landscapes "unique" and "ecological"? We use our own plants in our design and installation work, almost entirely, so the plant component begins with the exceptional and less-common plant palette you already expect from The Plantsmen Nursery. Because we grow plants at the nursery, we're not at the mercy of a regional distributor for our plant selection, so we have a far greater depth of choices than most other landscapers who only order plants from distributors.
I'm honestly not sure why anyone would go anyplace else.
Thank you so much for the beautiful work you did at my parents gravesite. My family and I are very grateful - it looks great!
Greenhouses do collapse sometimes under heavy snow. Our fern house did just that either Thursday or Friday a.m. Yesterday, Doug, Bridget and I shoveled out the other covered houses to make sure we don’t lose another one. The plants inside will be fine...they’re dormant. Just some rebuilding in Spring.
Nature’s patterns: frost on the greenhouse doors.
Almost 3 feet of snow up at the nursery, beautiful dry powder. Won’t be long before we start seeding. Enjoy the snow!
