Description The business is a full scale garden center in the desirable community of Glenwood Springs, CO. Its picturesque setting with a magnificent mountain background across the Colorado River is enhanced by the historic landmark Lord and Burnham dome greenhouse which is the centerpiece of the retail center.
Through seed production and purchase of plugs, liners and bare roots, the garden center grows practically all of the plants it sells. This offers a distinct advantage over competition which trucks in live products to market from distant suppliers. Plants grown and acclimate on site have a leg up when planted at high altitude. There is also a distinct cost and diversity advantage when you grow your own rather than purchase finished product form others. The garden center has been in business for 75 years. The owners and staff are known for having figured out what works in the challenging environment of the Rocky Mountains.
A combination of location and climate offers a unique situation for a major part of the garden center business. Due to the short growing season and proximity to both Vail and Aspen, the business delivers custom grown containers and baskets to both these areas. These are planted and grown in greenhouses for six weeks and installed after danger of the last frost at private homes, hotels, resorts, restaurants, and golf courses. This is an area where there is a great deal of room for growth. Every year there is greater demand than supply as the reputation for quality product and service has grown.
Owner desires to retire. Owner is willing to stay for transition to fully educate new owners. Very little to no marketing has been done to promote the products and services of the business. Contact: Business World Brokers, Inc. (970) 704-1100
