In the winter of 2007-08, we sent out a survey to find out what was most important about Van Berkum Nursery. Thank you!

Here are the 12 things you like best about our nursery.


1.

You love our website with its photos and information and the fact that your customers can use it as well. Check out the printable plant list under Perennial Photos and Info, where you can make a presentation of selected perennials for you or your clients. We’d love you to link us to your own website. Check out the reasons below.


2. You like our 165 page educational catalog, so we’ll keep sending it.


3. You want good availability from March-November, that’s our goal as well!


4.

You like our selection of tough rugged perennials that last a long time in the landscape with minimal care. That has been a specialty of ours for 20 years, but just this year we gave them a name….’Wicked Ruggeds’. Look for them under our Specialty Lists subpage.


5. Finding our New England Woodlanders, our trademarked series of perennials native to New England.


6. You want us to be environmentally friendly. We strive for that.


7. You want high quality tough plants that last through our crazy winters, not the forced greenhouse variety.


8. You like advice from our incredible staff – no introduction needed


9. You like getting deliveries from Dave and his crew of drivers who go above and beyond.


10. You often check our bud and bloom list, with what looks fantastic each week.


11. Our new size, true gallons for instant impact.


12. A delivery schedule that is organized around specific days to each area is best for you. We are adding more areas for 2008.


And honorable mention goes to the following 5 items:

  1. Spec racks on our trucks, so you can be enticed with more in bloom.
  2. An invitation to bring your customers to plan and peruse our display gardens.
  3. The ability to buy plants as singles if needed.
  4. Our discount program for regular buyers.
  5. Custom tags with our photos and information.
