Read the 2017 Top 100 Independent Garden Centers issue online

One of Garden Center magazine’s most exciting issues of the year is now available online and as a digital edition.

The September issue includes our highly anticipated 2017 Top 100 Independent Garden Centers List, which includes companies from across the U.S. and Canada with a combined sales volume of $1.2 billion.

Each year, we share stories from some of the businesses on our list, as well. This year, we included profiles of siblings Sandi Hillermann McDonald and Scott Hillermann of Hillermann Nursery & Florist of Washington, Mo., who were featured on our cover, Stephen Flynn Jr. of Nunan Florist & Greenhouses in Georgetown, Mass., which recently opened a mini golf course on its property, and Bob Young and Lynn Hawkins from Stein’s Garden & Home in Wisconsin -- No. 2 on our list -- which recently updated its brand, merchandising and store landscapes. 

Read on for more features, including Q&A articles with leaders from Louisiana Nursery Home & Garden Showplace in Baton Rouge, Roger’s Gardens in Corona Del Mar, Calif., and Ravenna Gardens in Seattle.
