Asheville nurseries and tropicals

11 years ago

I'm visiting Asheville area next week. Any nurseries or greenhouses you'd recommend? I'm currently smitten with rhizomatous begonias and I'm suffering in this in between time: those sold as annuals are winding down and the houseplant season hasn't begun. But the hunt is part of the fun...

I can only speak with respect to Pine Island as I've been to their nursery and website too many times. They are very good. Its a big operation, producing hundreds of quality trees. They pretty much have the corner on the tropical fruit tree market in South Florida. Their prices are decent. Excalibur (west palm beach)is also good. They tend to have slightly larger trees for sale, however, I do not believe they ship trees. They are also slightly more expensive, but they do carry a some different varieties.
