St. Augustine Nurseries

10 years ago

Making plans for the annual trip from Hilton Head down to the Leu Gardens show. I was talking to someone who mentioned that there were some good nurseries in the St. Augustine area. Since that is on our way, I was wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction. I tried the search function but kept coming up with posts about the grass! Thanks. With our warm weather I am getting excited to go to the show and hit all the wonderful nurseries like the Ace Hardware stores in JAX.

I like the Ace Hardware store in Mandarin the best (a suburb of Jax). It is large and new and has an awesome greenhouse. I always find something neat in there lol and I am picky sooo..

When we take a day trip to St. Augustine, a "must" stop is Southern Horticulture at 1690 Anastasia (A1A). Phone 904-471-0440.

SJN, thanks for your recommendation; I'll add it to my list.

Not really looking for anything in particular secretsquirrel. Of course always looking for something unusual. I started bringing back bromeliads a couple years ago and have been very pleased with the results. I know that is one thing I will be looking for particularly neoregelias. They seem to do well here with minimal protection. Just found out we may be moving to a house about a mile away so that means all new gardens. I have really gotten into cold hardy gingers and cannas the last couple of years. I will definitely be increasing those if we move. Oh my, the imagination is running wild now! Thanks for any suggestions. Can't wait to get down there!
