Emerald Forest Nursery, Ohio, Pricing system?

9 years ago

Does anyone know how the pricing is done for hostas? The website only says determined by plant.

Do they count eyes? Will they divide big plants if you can't afford whole plant? Do they have a base price?

I've never seen no price list. Thanks.

    Last line poorly written. I've never seen a retailer website that did not include a price list.

    Maybe call them and ask? It IS odd to see no pricing, for sure!

    We can be reached during the following hours:

    Tuesday-Sunday 9 a.m. to 8 p.m.

    Phone: 440-552-7851

    Ken, I do plan to drive there soon. I usually use mail order, that's why I was surprised at no prices. It's about an hour &15min drive and I enjoy the planning of purchases, and drooling over hosta pictures makes me want to get just the right ones and try to stay in a sort of "budget".

    My3dogs. I probably will end up calling, but will have to get a short list together first.

    Just thought I'd ask. Thanks for replying.

    It's located very close to me. You get the whole pot and he has lots of crowns in most pots. The plants are very healthy. It's my favorite local nursery to shop. His perennials are great too! The owner is extremely helpful and knowledgeable.

    Ken, you are way TOO good as a detective. I just joined North Coast this year and they are visiting this nursery soon so I'm sure it's good. I was away from home with only my tablet and time on my hands, so what else to think about but hostas. I remembered a couple posters here had been there, so I posted my question here instead of waiting til I got home to call. I called them today and left message.

    As Karma would have it ...... They were in desperate need of a redesigned website so I volunteered and did my 2nd website.

    You sent my website page BACK to me. Lol TY, at least I know it's findable.

    Miles, thanks, that sounds great. I'm at the point now that sometimes I really want more than 1 eye on a hosta. Can't always find that.

    Nice website - but check the spelling on RECEIVE. I am a spelling and grammar nut. Runs in the family.

    Thank you for the nice comment. I will check that immediately. That drives me nuts too.

  • 9 years ago

    Eleven, Oh my gosh, now I want to go today. Thank you.

    Update - This is what I bought:

    They were very nice hostas and reasonably priced. It was a little difficult finding specific names without asking because some rows had little or no labeling. They are trying to get better.


    Back row Left to Right: None Lovelier $13, Seducer $15, Winter Snow $14

    Middle row: American Choo Choo $15, Devil's Advocate $18, Sacramento $20

    Front American Hero $17

    Darn! I was in that area a month ago...Wish I'd known about this place! Anything good near Columbus? I'll be there in a month.

    Linnea, define close. The best place I've ever seen is about 1 hr drive from Columbus.

    Dick in Ohio, I just reread these posts. I was not clear. I developed North Coast Hosta Society website, not the nursery. Lol, I searched every page and didn't find "recieve" in my website. Hahaha, serves me right, not being precise.

  • 9 years ago

    I should have been more clear. Close as in, I'll be driving west from Columbus, toward Indianapolis, then toward Chicago. I'm already planning a stop about 3 miles north of Indianapolis, But I pretty much know what they will have for hostas.

  • 9 years ago

    The place I was thinking about is an hour south of Columbus. Out of your way.

  • 9 years ago

    Wade and Gatton is near Mansfield, which is north of Columbus, you would take I71 north. Emerald Forest is in Columbia Station which is south of Cleveland and would take I71 further north. If you wanted to visit Emerald Forest you could go to Chicago by way of the Ohio and Indiana turnpikes. I do it all the time.
