Lynde Greenhouse & Nursery has been owned and operated by five generations of the Lynde family. We first started producing plants and vegetables in Golden Valley around 1900 and found a niche in growing and selling flowers after WWI. In 1971 we moved to our current location in Maple Grove.

In 1982, Ed Lynde opened the original retail Garden Center, which is now a growing space we call old retail. The retail portion did so well a bigger and better retail Garden Center was built in 1989, which is the one our customers shop in today. As the business continued to grow the labor also increased, which is why in 1993 we became the first greenhouse in the state of Minnesota to install permanent conveyors to transport our plant products on-site.

Today, we produce plants for our retail garden center, residential and commercial off-site installations, wholesalers like landscapers and retailers, and our fundraising programs. We produce plant material for every season: Easter Lilies, Geraniums, Garden Mums, and Poinsettias are just to name a few.

Lynde Greenhouse & Nursery has been growing and caring for plants since 1896, and has been in Maple Grove since 1971. When you buy your plants from us, you can be assured that we grow our products ourselves, right here in Maple Grove, and care for them in the most responsible manner possible. From annuals for every season to succulents and everything in between, our garden center has what you need to get started both outdoors and indoors. Stop by our garden center for help with your perennial bed & container garden design, or consult with our landscape designer on your landscape installation project. From outdoor kitchens to paver patios, retaining walls, and plantings your project will be built to impress. Visit us today!
