Perennials, Ornamental Grass & Ferns

While annuals and bulbs are only temporary, perennials give the garden perpetual excitement with a wide variety of colors and textures. Whether it’s spring, summer, fall or yes even winter…the perennial garden continues on season after season to brighten up a shady corner, to add a burst of color to a sunny border or provide a much needed winter interest, not to mention food for birds…

GET READY, GET SET, GROW…

Welcome to Beaver Creek Nursery at Briar Thicket

Our beginnings…

We are a family owned and operated business that started in Knoxville, Tennessee in 1984.

We first started out solely as a landscape company and knew it was important to grow local stock for our installations, which we did.  A year later, people continued to ask if they could buy plants from us directly.  Long story short…our retail division was born.

Our focus is on rare, unusual, and hard to find plants for the decerning gardener.  You will not find the common, everyday plants that you will find at other nurseries or the big box stores.  We never collect plants from the wild.  All plants we sell are nursery grown from seed, cuttings and division.  We also trial our stock for hardiness, which ensures we deliver you a long-lived healthier plant.  Sorry… we do not sell Fruit Trees or Annuals.

Also, being an agricultural grower, we are exempt from charging sales tax…which means more savings for you!  This being the case, we do not sell, Mulch, Rock, Topsoil or Garden Art.  We are just plant geeks here!

Our main concentration is on Japanese Maples, Stewartias and Native Trees, Shrubs and Perennials.  However, we also grow Conifers, Camellias, Hosta, Ferns and Wildflowers.

 

Thank you all so much for supporting local businesses.
