Ekana Nursery & Landscaping

Ekana Nursery & Landscaping Full service garden center. Custom landscape design and installation. Tree and shrub plantings.

Nursery was started in March of 1987 – a relatively small number of trees planted in the field. Landscaping services began in 1989 by installing trees and small shrubs for residential customers. Fall 1991 – First retail tree sale from the nursery was offered because the public kept asking if they could buy trees – this proved to be very successful. Spring 1992 – Opened the Retail Garden Center off

ering plants and some supplies in a small area at the front of the building

Between 1992 – 1996
The growing nursery increased in size from .5 acres to 10 acres

1996-2004
Landscaping became a much larger part of the business offering a wide range of design and installation services including installations of water gardens, waterfalls, and ponds, new landscaping construction, and existing site renovations. In 2005 and 2006 our facility was improved by remodeling the building. A front patio, planter and water garden were installed to improve our shopper’s experience.
