About Us
We are a small nursery in Fairview, North Carolina. We started out with a few specimen Japanese Maples like "Red Feather." Our nursery has grown and we now have over 1,500 containerized plants and shrubs at the Nursery.

We encourage customers to visit the nursery to find your unique tree, since we only take a small selection to markets and shows. Please call (828-779-1981) or check the contact page for an appointment.
