Welcome to Baker's Acres Greenhouse!

Here at Baker's Acres we love people, we love plants and we love to have fun.  Hopefully, we have successfully combined all three.  Being unabashed plant nerds ourselves, we realize what joy and delight a new plant brings...especially if it lives.  By searching the world over, by rummaging through countless greenhouses and garden centers, and by swapping with our many generous friends in the industry, we have amassed a huge variety of plants that should satisfy most horticultural fanatics as well as all of you 'normal' people.  Producing all these plants is very hard work, so we try to make it as enjoyable as possible by having a good laugh whenever we can.  Laughing is supposed to be very good for you (unless your suffer from a broken rib).  To this end, we're including some of the so-called funny stuff from our famous catalog as well as our plant lists.  We hope you will enjoy it all.

OUR FAMOUS CATALOG

WHAT IS THIS?

     What is this thing you’re looking at?  We’ve struggled for years for the right term for our catalog.  It’s not actually a catalog, having no prices and no descriptions.  It’s too large for a pamphlet.  Would that make it a pamph?  Is it a brochure...not sure.  We could call it a roster but that could foster a sports allusion.  If we called it a list we would miss the gist of what it’s all about.  Printed matter sounds strange and horticultural compendium is way too stuffy.  A booklet implies that it’s almost a book which in turn implies literature, which this certainly is not.  I guess we’ll just have to call this ‘The Papery Thing with the Words and Stuff’.  That’s got a nice ring to it.

THE DREADED DISCLAIMER
At the risk of causing a great and mournful outcry from the masses, we must tell you that WE DO NOT SHIP plants listed in our retail catalog at this point in time (perhaps in the future).  You gotta come to the greenhouse to get 'em.  We do not take orders - it's first come first served.  A word of advice - call first to make sure the plants you want are in stock.  It is almost impossible to have all the plants all the time.


We periodically update this website (usually when we can't get to sleep), so keep checking back as we add more information!
