Gardening is art… a process with a will of its own, reflecting nature’s inner clock and a gardener’s attentiveness.  Our nursery provides the palette, both soft and hard, living and inanimate.  Gardens is filled with plants in all forms: seed, bulb, cutting, rooted. They have an affinity for Texas, but are chosen from around the world, for particular attributes like shade, shape, taste, screen, cover, color, scent, and seasonality. 

Often plants found here cannot be easily obtained at other nurseries.  Many are chosen individually by our buyers who travel cross country to select species that transplant well to our climate.  In the spring, we have over 40 varieties of heirloom and hybrid tomato starts, including tried and true favorites of the staff along with new and exciting ones we want to try out and taste.  In the fall, an equally large variety of amaryllis bulbs arrive, with the same mix of old and new for gardeners to enjoy throughout the holiday season.

In addition to our special plant selection, we offer many vessels.  Concrete planters designed by Gardens and made here in Austin, along with beautiful and simple Vietnamese ceramic containers as well as our popular Italian terra cotta.  Our shipments from Italy are always met with excitement as customers rush to choose their favorites from these handmade pots.
