Types of plant nurseries

A plant nursery is a place where young plants and trees are grown and cultivated for sale. Let’s look at three main types of nurseries:

• Wholesale nurseries: They grow plants and flowers in bulk to resell to retailers and certain businesses, such as landscapers and building contractors. Apart from providing the plants you need, a reputable wholesale nursery can also advise you on how to care for your purchases, pest and disease control, wholesale garden supplies and more.
• Retail nurseries: They sell plants to their retail customers. Some retail nurseries grow many plants themselves but most purchase them from a wholesale nursery to resell to their customers.
• Mail-order nurseries: They sell their items via mail and typically grow their own plants. However, larger mail order nurseries purchase plants which they then offer for resale.
