High quality plants and good value
Advice that empowers you to plant the right
plants in the right places
And, if you don’t see the plant you need, we
will order it for you when possible.

DESIGN ADVICE SERVICES begin with a
visit to The Growing Place with printed pictures
and dimensions of the area of concern. With
those tools, we are better able to assist with plant
selection and placement or, for more involved
needs, schedule an appointment at your home.
We also offer INSTALLATION SERVICE

We moved this historic farmhouse to our Aurora location where it serves as our Garden Gift Shop. This year we celebrate its 150th year and 10th year at The Growing Place. The anniversary party was great fun! Memorabilia is still on display.

Great Fall Planting Days Continue!
Did you know that you can plant TREES, SHRUBS, EVERGREENS & BULBS through October and even early November? Most thrive when planted in the cool moist weather of fall. Remember that roots continue to grow after tops go dormant. Our Huge Mums are $9.99 and bursting with color. Pansies, Grasses, ornamental cabbage and kale, fall blooming perennials, and shrubs round out the spectacular show. See the fall coloring of trees and shrubs to help your selection.
