Why our Plants are Better
1Trial Tested
Plants must thrive in our trial gardens for 2 years prior to making it to our Garden Centers.
2Natural Soil
Helps our plants look better, last longer, and reduces transplant shock.
3Real Acclimation
Local selections bred and acclimated for your garden. Frost, heat, drought and wind tested.
4Locally Selected Varieties
We use industry and university research as well as our own trial gardens to make sure plants perform in the challenging conditions this area poses. That's one big difference between KVG and others: If you see a plant in our store, you can be sure it is well suited to the area.
5Neonicotinoid Free
We do not use neonicotinoid pesticides that may be harmful to bees, birds, and animals. We’re doing our part to protect pollinators.
