Bannister Creek Nursery

Information may not be reliable

We are a plant nursery. We are not a garden center. We offer ornamental and shade trees, shrubs, and perennials for the homeowner -- whether novice or gardening enthusiast.

We emphasize unusual and hard to find specimens. You won't find an over-used, over-rated Bradford Pear in our inventory! We travel to a lot of out of the way places in the North Georgia mountains or coastal South or across the country in Oregon searching for smaller suppliers who offer something unique and who take personal pride in their products. We echo their interest and dedication and maintain healthy, vibrant plants.

We have two passions: Specialty Conifers and Japanese Maples. There are hundreds of varieties of each and we try to maintain an excellent selection.

We take time with our customers.
We went into the nursery business because we enjoy plants and we like to share our enthusiasm with our customers. By taking time with you, we can ensure that you have an enjoyable shopping experience and that you leave with a plant that is suitable for the site and conditions you have as well as the time you are willing to spend taking care of the plant.

What we don't do. We carry only a narrow selection of perennials although we are always happy to help our customers locate more unusual or hard to find perennials on request.
