Early spring at the greenhouses

As the days lengthen and the snow pulls back, our greenhouses wake up first. Benches fill with cheerful pansies and violas, forced spring bulbs, fragrant primrose and the season's earliest cool-weather color — grown right here in Andover and ready to shake off winter.

It's also the time to get a head start: seed-starting supplies, cool-crop vegetable starts, and honest advice from a team that has been growing quality for more than 65 years.

What's in season

The first color to arrive

A rotating early-spring lineup, grown on-site in Andover. Here's what to look for first.

🌸

Pansies & Violas

Cold-hardy, cheerful color for beds, borders and porch pots — the signature face of early spring.

🌼

Primrose & Ranunculus

Jewel-toned early bloomers that brighten a windowsill while the garden is still waking up.

🌷

Forced Spring Bulbs

Tulips, daffodils and hyacinth coaxed into early bloom — instant spring for the table.

🥬

Cool-Crop Veggie Starts

Lettuce, kale, spinach and other cool-weather crops that love these first mild weeks.

🌿

Fresh Herbs

Start the kitchen garden early with hardy herbs ready for a sunny sill or cold frame.

💐

Easter & Spring Blooms

Hydrangeas, lilies and spring florals to celebrate the holidays and the first warm days.

Your early-spring garden checklist

A few weeks of prep now pays off all season long. Here's where to start — and our team is always happy to talk it through.

Start seeds indoors
Tomatoes, peppers and annuals — about 6–8 weeks before our mid-May last frost.
Plant cool-crops & pansies
Lettuce, kale and pansies shrug off a light frost — get color and greens in early.
Prune & tidy the beds
Cut back last year's perennials and dormant-prune shrubs before the buds break.
Feed & refresh the soil
Work in compost and a slow-release feed so roots are ready when things warm up.
Force bulbs & branches
Cut forsythia and pussy willow, or pot up bulbs, for a first hit of indoor spring.
