Beds & Borders, Inc.
Beds & Borders, Inc. is another excellent wholesale grower of specialty plants located on the very beautiful North Fork of Long Island. Beds & Borders was founded in 1987 by the late Kathryn Pufahl, who began growing unusual plants previously unavailable to the wholesale trade in one small plastic greenhouse. Since that time, the business has grown tremendously to 90,000 square feet of growing space in a computer controlled production facility. Their specialty are annuals and tender perennials, which can be found in garden centers from Vermont to Maryland and are used extensively by the industry's best garden design professionals. Andrea and I found a wonderful selection there.
