In 1985, the Rulfs Orchard dream began with one small wooden greenhouse. Another greenhouse was built and from that point on, the Rulfs "seed" grew. We now have seven greenhouses, including our show house, which contains a display of all of our annuals. By the first week of May, all of our greenhouses will be full of color - just in time for Mother’s Day!
All of the plants grown in our greenhouses start from a seed or plug. Our team begins planting towards the end of February and continues through May. We plant a variety of six packs, 4 ½ inch pots, 6 inch pots, hanging baskets, patio pots, window boxes, perennials, and mums.
We are a certified Proven Winner Source and also have a vast assortment of perennials zoned for the area. Shrubs and trees from May until November, including apple trees, fruit trees, and berry bushes. We can even order saplings for you, if you don’t see it in our greenhouses. Talk to us in April and let’s talk about your plans!
Our greenhouses offer a full line of vegetable plants: tomatoes, cucumbers, lettuce, peppers - the list goes on! Check out our greenhouse designated just for just veggie plants.
Come pay us a visit and experience the grounds and greenhouses, and simply enjoy the beauty! In the Fall, our hardy mums are ready to go in a wave of colors.
The staff at Rulfs are experienced and here to advise and help you in your gardening projects "from seed to the ending plant."
In our greenhouses you will find annuals, perennials, herbs, veggies. While stocks last! What we grow changes each year, and our plants are very popular and sell quickly. Please note that we cannot guarantee availability of any one item.
Do you have old plastic plant containers taking up room? We can reuse or recycle them here!
In 2020 we opened our new greenhouse, the Veggie House! In there you can find all of our veggie starters and herbs. We ask that all visitors please follow social distancing guidelines of leaving 6 feet between you and others, and, where possible, wearing masks to reduce the risk to yours and other households. Thank you in advance!
