Gertens is one of North America’s largest garden centers and home to Minnesota’s largest selection of annuals, perennials, natives, houseplants, trees, shrubs, and evergreens. We’ve been “Growing in the Grove” in Inver Grove Heights since 1921 and our campus now covers over 100 acres of shopping and growing facilities. Gertens is still a family-owned business with a focus on giving customers the ability to buy high-quality plants and trees directly from a local grower. After all, IT'S ONLY NATURAL TO BUY FROM THE GROWER.
Song birds will go wild for Coneflowers, Chokeberries, Serviceberries, and Crabapples, and they will love the cover provided by the Spruce tree. Hummingbirds will appreciate the inclusion of their favorite Weigela, Honeysuckle Vine, and Monarda. A variety of both host and nectar plants will keep butterflies fluttering through your garden. They will be drawn to the Butterfly Weed, Coneflower, Asters, Monarda, and Liatris; while the smooth stone path provides a great place for them to bask in the sun after feasting.
All of these materials provide a diverse collection of food, an inviting refuge, and a season full of captivating color, texture, and form.
