Busy Bee Garden Center

Busy Bee Garden Center We grow plants the way they should bee! Busy Bee is a garden center created by a young woman with a dream to start her own business.

Around the age of 20, the idea of owning came true and Busy Bee officially opened in 2008. Since then, Busy Bee has continued to grow each season. The business was built upon the belief that beautiful plants would make beautiful yards. In order to ensure the best quality of plants, Busy Bee grows all of their own annuals and perennials. We invite you to see our quality firsthand and discover how well our plants will perform in your landscape.

In typical Busy Bee fashion, we had great plans to tour a plant trial Friday and instead we got stormed out. Well more like we left in a big hurry to avoid a very nasty looking storm, but I still managed to take about 500 pictures of plants 😅
We love to tour PlantPeddler’s trial each August to research and gather ideas for next season. I wanted to share a few of the highlights in the blur of taking notes and photos in a serious time crunch.
Can’t wait to start picking what newbees will bee making their appearance at Busy Bee next spring! Any special requests before I start the long mission of deciding what to grow next season?
