Trivia


We hope you will enjoy reminiscing with us this year...in the TRIVIA sections of this web site.

Did you know that Shady Acres was founded in 1958 when Dick Garbe purchased 8 acres of land on Martin Road in New Berlin, WI? Today, our nursery is operated at that same location on 18 acres. This includes growing facilities, storm water management pond and a garden center with display gardens.

Welcome to Shady Acres Perennial Nursery

We are delighted you are thinking about gardening with perennials! We invite you to visit the garden center at Shady Acres Perennial Nursery. 2008 will be our 50th year in business.

Shady Acres is a perennial paradise! Our vast selection of perennials offers many choices for your gardening needs. With over 1100 varieties to choose from, you're bound to discover the perfect perennials for your planting palette.

Perennials are a good fit in every aspect of landscaping. From containers to mixed border gardens, herbaceous perennials add bursts of character and integrate interest into the landscape. If you aren't sure how to incorporate perennials in to your gardening plans, Shady Acres offers educational workshops that will teach you how to put perennials in their place on your property.

Our ever-popular display gardens continue to be transformed from season to season and from year to year. One of the best ways to decide what perennials to plant in your gardens and containers is to see them growing in their appropriate environments. Display gardens will stimulate your creative senses and invoke ideas during the design process. Meander through our gardens and observe the fashionable ways we utilize perennials.

Perennials are our passion, and we want to share their charm. Allow our staff to assist you with perennial selection, garden plans, and container plantings. We're here to equip you with all you need to make your perennial endeavor a success!

Thanks from all of us at Shady Acres!
