About us

Durham Garden Center is a locally-owned, plant-first shop located in West Durham, just a short skip from the Eno River.

Don’t hesitate to come in and share something you just learned, we are a ready audience. Check out our Instagram and Facebook for nuggets of knowledge and new plant pals.

Our philosophy is: dream it, plant it, grow it. We are here to support your plant parenthood.

Keith is the guy behind our rebirth during the pandemic. Our manager and resident horticulturist since August 2020, he is transforming our store into a public classroom for horticulture.

He graduated from NC State with a degree in Horticulture, and went on to pursue graduate studies in Public Horticulture and Community Planning at Auburn University.

Most passionate about temperate landscape plants, Keith will light up if you ask about conifers. Originally from coastal South Carolina, he fell in love with flowing fresh water, exposed rock, and temperate plants after many trips to Appalachia.

Rosa remembers everything. With a map and inventory always pulled up in her mind, she is listening to the plants’ needs and can help you find that ever-elusive variety of Osmanthus. Las plantas comunican con ella, y ella siempre está disponible para sus necesidades.

Rosa worked at our parent nursery for 22 years before joining us. She can spot a diseased plant from a mile off and knows how to prevent spread.

She gives everyone a huge good morning each day, and has us all listening to cumbia on repeat.

Tom comes to us after a hiatus in the cyber security industry. Tom and Keith go way back to their days studying Horticulture at NC State where they became friends during a departmental horticulture trip to Europe.

Tom received his Bachelor's degree in Ornamental Horticulture from NC State and has worked a variety of roles in the industry including nursery production, pest management and landscape maintenance. Needless to say, we welcome everyone to utilize his knowledge while shopping. 

When not at the shop, you can find Tom cultivating his perennial garden in Raleigh with his young daughter or trimming and admiring his bonsai collection.
