About PlantNurseryHQ
PlantNurseryHQ is an independent, publicly-sourced directory of plant nurseries, garden centers, and related growers and dealers across the United States. It is not affiliated with any nursery, garden center, chain, or state agriculture department listed here.
Where the data comes from
Every listing on this site is built from two kinds of public source, combined and cross-checked, never invented:
- State nursery/dealer licensing registries. Several state departments of agriculture publish a registry of licensed nursery dealers and growers. Where a listing carries a license badge, it links directly to that state's own published registry and shows the date the registry was last checked, never a number we calculated ourselves.
- A public business-listings pull (Google Maps). For coverage a state registry doesn't include, listings are sourced from a public Google Maps pull, filtered to nursery/garden-center-relevant categories. Ratings, review counts, hours, and websites shown on a listing come directly from that source and are only ever shown when the source actually provides them.
Where a business appears in both sources, the two are merged into one listing: the state registry supplies the licensed identity, the Maps pull supplies the enrichment fields (rating, hours, website) it doesn't hold.

What "license verified" means, and doesn't
A license badge appears on a listing only when we hold BOTH the state registry's own source URL and a specific as-of date for that registry pull, never a badge based on a license number alone, since a number with no source or date proves nothing you can check yourself. Clicking a license badge takes you to the state's own published registry so you can verify the record directly, rather than asking you to take our word for it.
A license badge is a record that a state registry listed this business as licensed as of the date shown. It is not an endorsement, a quality rating, or a guarantee that the business is still licensed or still operating today. Registries change, and we recheck on our own import schedule, not continuously.
What we don't do
- We don't accept payment for placement, ranking, or inclusion in this directory.
- We don't write or edit reviews, ratings, or review counts. Those come directly from the public source and are shown only when the source provides them.
- We don't guess at hours, phone numbers, or addresses when a source doesn't provide them; a missing field is shown as missing.
Corrections
If a listing is inaccurate, out of date, or belongs to a business that's no longer operating, use our Corrections & Removal Requests page. We log and review every request; where we can verify a correction against a public source, we apply it directly rather than waiting for our next scheduled import.
