Beyond the Garden Center

Lynde Greenhouse & Nursery goes well beyond our retail Garden Center. We sell wholesale to businesses, have a landscape design & installation team, as well as design and install on commercial properties.

Our wholesale customers range from small retail owners to big companies. We wholesale plants for every season all around the state.

Our landscape designer Joe Annis was voted "Best Landscape Designer" at the 2015 Best of Maple Grove Awards. From small projects to big he is your go to designer. Our landscape team has designed and installed retaining walls, fire pits, paver patios, flower beds, garden plots, water features, and so much more. Whatever your landscape aspirations we will be there from the initial concept all the way through the final product. We will work with you to design a product that is creative, unique, functional, and personal.

Kelsey Ness heads up our commercial design. Our commercial sites include The Shoppes at Arbor Lakes, Maple Grove Hospital, Excelsior & Grand, Woodbury Lakes, just to name a few. Most of these sites do summer and winter decor and a few do summer, winter, spring, and fall. The spring designs consist mostly of pansies, curly willow, and dogwood. The spring season for flowers is a short one so not many sites choose to do this. The summer planting options are endless. We work with a lot of petunias because they are durable, colorful, and hardy. We use Begonias, Coleus, and Impatiens for shady areas. Grasses and Canna Lilies add height and layers. We like to use blocks of color for impact and visibility. Our hanging baskets are exceptional. We start them early in the season in our greenhouses so they are full and vibrant when it is time to hang them. Fall, like spring is a short season so only a select few locations choose to do it. I personally love fall. From colorful mums, purple kale, to bright zinnias fall planters have so much to offer. The winter season brings out the spruce tips, birch, winter greens, and bling! We also string lights in tress as well as light wreaths and spruce tip pots.


Whether it is our Garden Center, Wholesale Department, Landscape Design, or Commercial Design we take pride in our product and are passionate about what we do.
