Cut
flowers were being flown into the Baltimore market
from warmer climates where labor was cheap, home
gardening was gaining in popularity with the American
public and bedding plants were the next turn in
the road. One problem, bedding plant production
left six months of the year with nothing to do.
What else would compliment the spring production
of flowering material? Foliage plants! Year round
demand. Throw in some seasonal flowering plants
and you have the potpourri that we offer our customers
in the Baltimore, Washington, and Annapolis area
today.
We
welcome you to visit our 50 thousand square foot
greenhouse range located in the Cub Hill area, one
and a half miles north of the Baltimore Beltway
exit 31B (Harford Road North). You will see we grow,
sell, and deliver seasonal flowering material such
as poinsettias, cyclamen, primrose, orchids, azaleas,
and violets. Easter flowering plants such as pot
mums, lilies, hyacinths, tulips, and daffodils.
Spring bedding plants such as geraniums, new guinea
inpatients, gerber daisies, tuberous begonias, and
new introductions as well as the old stand-by's
in market packs, pots, and hanging baskets. We also
stock a wide variety of foliage plants in pots sizes
from 3" to 14" and 6", 8", and
10" hanging baskets year round.

Our
employees hand pick the best plants available
from our greenhouses for each order and allow
the others to mature under ultimate growing
conditions.
Our customers get the cream of the crop, not
the run of the mill, no runts, no seconds,
no excuses! With the wide variety of plant
material that we grow it is easy for our smaller
customers to make up an order. Orders are
boxed in open boxes and loaded on our own
trucks and delivered in a matter of a few
short hours.
This
process insures that our customers get the
healthiest most robust plants and vibrantly
colored flowers.

Orders
do not sit in closed boxes in a warehouse or on
a truck for five or six days before they are delivered.
During busy holiday season deliveries may take slightly
longer.
Upon
the rare occasion that a plant should slip by that
is not up to your expectations, let us know, return
the plant and we will give you a full credit or
replace the plant whichever you prefer.
We accept
cash, check, or credit card payments, or with approved
credit, an in house 30 day account can be opened.
In order to earn your business we would
like to offer you a 10% discount on your first order.
Along with your first order you will receive a coupon
for 10% off your second order.
By offering you prompt delivery of greenhouse fresh
plants and flowers at competitive wholesale prices,
convenient payment terms and a hassle free return

persuade you to give Egerton Greenhouses a try.
