Gardening in Brooklyn: Brooklyn Nurseries

As planting season is wrapping up, I thought it would be helpful to share a list of some of the bigger nurseries and plant shops in Brooklyn.  I know there are a lot more than this--there are some great plants for sale on bodegas on 5th and 7th ave.  If you have a favorite that is not listed here, please share with the rest of the garden in the comments section.

  1. Another great source for plants is our Greenmarkets. The larger ones, such as Grand Army Plaza and Union Square, have multiple growers, and lots of choices.

  2. That's a great point--and also a great idea for another blog. I'll try to do a survey of Brooklyn Greenmarkets sometime soon. Thanks for the idea!

  5. The tree has always been a cultural symbol. The tree is often used to represent nature or the environment itself. In South America a tribe of Indians hold the belief that the trees of the forest hold up the sky. Click resources

  6. Organic gardening supplies leave no hazardous residue and break down naturally into the soil. Natural predators such as bats, praying mantis and ladybugs are great organic insect controls. Light deprivation greenhouse
