What's in store for planting
during the dormant season at
Full Bloom Nursery?
Fall and early winter is THE best time to
plant and we're growing beautiful crops of perennials, shrubs, and trees- just in time for the planting season. Plants grow roots all winter long and planting now will give them a head start before summer arrives.
Did you know that planting during
the dormant season is one
of the best ways you can use water responsibly? We all must do our part to conserve water and planting now will
keep you from having to pamper your
plants next summer.
It's raining now, but it will get
hot & dry next year so why put your plants through the stress of planting in spring
when you can plant now?
For a wealth of information on fruits & berries, click on the purple tab at the top of the page that says "Fruits & Vegetables".
We're the largest garden center/nursery in Hall County and one of the largest in the entire northeast Georgia area. Over 4 acres of plant material and 8,000 sq ft of greenhouses. Our inventory is huge! You won't find a bigger, healthier selection anywhere. New varieties, tried-and-true, the latest and greatest selections- it's all at Full Bloom Nursery. Can't decide what to plant? We'll give you suggestions of our favorites; plants we know will perform no matter what your conditions are.
Our prices are competitive with anyone, including the big box stores. You can be assured that the plants you purchase from us are healthy and well-cared for; you won't find better quality anywhere. It's important to purchase plants that are not stressed, diseased, or root-bound. We give volume discounts and we can deliver anything you purchase.
For your convenience, we also sell soil amendments and mulch in bag and bulk. Amending your soil with organic matter is the absolute best thing you can do to make your plants more drought-tolerant and able to withstand our hot, dry summers and clay soil that stays wet in winter.
You’ll find a lot of information here on a wide assortment of plants and gardening tips. Check our "Gardening Calendar" page for the latest on upcoming gardening events. Click on the "water issues" links to the left for good, detailed information on drought tolerant plants, using less water, and suggestions on how to keep your plants healthy with very minimal water. We all must do our part to conserve water and your plants usually need a lot less water than you might think. We hope you will find the tips we’ve provided helpful.

Come shop a true nursery......Over 4 acres of plants displayed in a garden setting!
Our plants are either grown right here at the nursery, or locally in the Southeast.
That means they'll thrive in our Georgia conditions.
In other words,
"Our Plants Live...... or Die Trying"!
There will be some exciting new bedding plants and flowering perennials introduced to the public this spring and Full Bloom Nursery will have a great selection. In fact, we've already booked many of our spring plants with our growers to make sure we can provide you with new and one-of-a-kind plants. Stay tuned!

Conifers are excellent plants suitable for any type of landscape. They come in every shape, size and texture. Pictured: On left, Gold Mop Cypress. On right, Grey Owl Juniper. These are our plants for sale, displayed in a natural setting.
'Winter King' English Hawthorne (pictured above) blooms heavily in spring with clusters of white blooms, followed by enormous amounts of red berries in fall & winter. A female cardinal was on the tree eating berries moments before this picture was shot, but was too shy to have her picture taken. Photo taken December 3, 2009.
Thanks to everyone for another great year! We believe nature and the outdoors provides mental benefits, relief from the stress of a busy & hectic lifestyle, and just plain fun! We are honored to provide a service to our community, and to be a source of relaxation for our customers.
