Because We Care About You and Your Health
The Greenhouse has been a family-owned and operated business since 1958, dedicated to serving all gardening and landscaping needs in the greater Richmond area. Our family takes pride in providing quality plants and knowledgeable, friendly service to our customers. With over 50 years of experience in the industry, we have become one of Central Virginia's most beloved nurseries.
Our History
In 1958, Gilbert Miles and his wife Margaret opened up the greenhouses at Hollywood Cemetery in Richmond, Virginia. Due to the success of the business, the greenhouse traffic began to interfere with cemetery traffic, prompting the Miles to move to a new location. In 1969, they found the perfect place in Glen Allen on Mountain Road and started from scratch. The Greenhouse has operated at that location ever since, and in 1981, a second location was added on Patterson Avenue in Richmond to serve the needs of customers in the West End. Today, The Greenhouse is run by Gilbert and Margaret's son George, who has been working at the nursery since he was a child.
Our Locations
The Greenhouse has two locations, one in Glen Allen on Mountain Road and the other in Richmond on Patterson Avenue. Both locations offer a variety of annuals, perennials, landscaping plants, and decor, and our team is always available to provide top-notch customer service tailored to our customers' individual needs. Visit our Locations page for contact information and directions to each of our nurseries.
