Dow Jones Description

We have been a trusted source of quality merchandise and gardening information since 1923. Our two locations in Bethesda, MD are convenient to Washington, DC, Maryland and Northern Virginia. We are proud of our commitment to EarthWise gardening. EarthWise gardening means adopting good gardening practices so plants flourish naturally, without reliance on chemical pesticides. Our goal is to educate our staff and customers about sound horticultural methods and the use of alternative products. Our specialties include outdoor trees & shrubs, an extensive selection of perennials & annuals both usual and unusual, as well as native species. Indoors, our selection of orchids is unparalleled. The garden supplies departments have a complete line of tools, seeds, soils and mulches. We have the most extensive supply of organic products in the area. The garden gift department, including hats, gloves, pots, fountains, garden accouterments and home and garden accents is a gardener's delight! We invite you to browse our web site to catch up on the seasonal activities and gather information from our handouts. And, we look forward to greeting you in person when you come into our stores. We are offering ice cold Light the Night water bottles for $1 at all three locations. Proceeds of the sale of the water bottles are to benefit the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society.
