History of the Nursery

  • 1978

Back in 1978, this land wasn't a nursery at all – it was actually a hydroponic tomato farm.

That's when Chuck and Cay Dee started a small nursery in what was once a very rural part of town.

  • 1985

As Fort Bend County grew, so did the nursery. Chuck started by landscaping and growing plants for his clients.

  • 1995

Cay Dee developed an interest in rare and unusual plants, building a reputation as a knowledgeable source for tropicals and hard-to-find varieties.

  • 2006

Chuck shifted his focus to bamboo – something hardly anyone else inthe area was selling. It turned out to be a hit, especially for folks looking for natural privacy screens for their yards.

  • 2016

Expanded the nursery and gardens.

  • Present

Today, Chuck's focus remains the same – creating plant combinations to give customers inspiration, and offering unique plants so every customer can take home something special.
