What excitement! We decided to move our little shed building and open up the second half of the garden center - it is now an unbelievable view from the time you enter straight through to the arboretum entrance. We still have a bit of construction to do but we believe it is a tremendous improvement. Come see for yourselves!

January - A new beginning
The month of January is named after "Janus", the Roman God of beginnings. This first month of the new year let us start by relaxing, restoring and pampering ourselves.We have all made it through the holidays and now are dealing with unusual cold keeping us snuggled indoors. 


We can do this by nurturing our gardening instincts with brightly colored plants . Did you know that studies have proven the present of plants in the household or office place help you live longer, healthier and happier lives? By simply adding a plant or two nearby you can improve air quality and create positive and happy emotions.

Pinecone Perennials can help! By the end of next week our greenhouse will be filled with orchids, ferns, anthuriums and many other wonderful foliage and flowering plants.
Come delight, imagine, and nurture!

Why go local?

Here are six reasons to shop at an independently, locally owned and operated garden center
1 High-quality plants. Our shop is your source for the best plants for your area. We grow them locally, they aren't shipped in from some far away nursery with different climate-growing requirements. More exciting -because we grow them, we do not need to charge tax on our plants. What better way to save money?
2 Gardening expertise. Rob, our grower has a degree in horticulture and soil science. Then there is the rest of us with many years of experience in the garden center, with plants and connections with local experts. We all have soil in our souls - proof of our love and knowledge for our plants!
3 Personal service. Dedicated staff helps you find what you need and can offer "how-to" advice. From highly informed owners to seasoned employees hired to efficiently make your visit productive, quick and pleasant.
4 Passion to match yours. Rob and Wendy, owners of Pinecone Perennials have had green thumbs all of their lives, inherited from prior generations, so starting their business around their passion was the perfect way to promote gardening. They share their enthusiasm with the rest of the staff and finally with all of you!
5 Creative ideas.We at Pinecone Perennials offer inspiration. Looking for landscape ideas, indoor displays, holiday decorations? We can help make you decisions easier.
6 Opportunity to support local business. Shopping at our independently owned garden center fosters a greater sense of community and gives the local economy a boost.
