How is American Plant different from other garden centers? For 95 years, we've been a popular garden center in the D.C. area, a third-generation family-owned business. American Plant has evolved into more than a garden center. While maintaining the company’s core values, Brett, Erik and Todd Shorb continue to expand the business and provide customers with something new and exciting each year. American Plant is a one-stop shopping destination with a wide selection of garden supplies, annuals, perennials, trees and shrubs. The stores' greenhouses have exquisite orchids, houseplants and creative custom arrangements. Tinge, our lifestyle boutique, offers home décor, and an amazing selection of gifts that can’t be found anywhere else in the area. Much of what we do is offering guidance and one-on-one service when you're shopping. We have a tradition of offering organic, earth-friendly gardening solutions, as well as a strong family legacy of quality service and personal attention. Our grandfather built American Plant treating his customers like they were guests in his own home. A trip to American Plant is an experience—not just an errand you have to run. Our locations offer an experience of tranquility and excitement all wrapped up in one visit!
