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 you 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.

Arrangement and design by the lovely Sarah Baker

In years past we have mailed copies of the catalog, but times being what they are, we need to cut costs wherever we can and we are forced to discontinue these mailings.  Do not fret, however.  While we are out of hard copy catalogs, you can browse this website to get most of the information contained in the catalog or, for those who want their very own e-copy, CLICK HERE or click on the flowers to the left.
