December Greetings!

PLANTS

Loomis Creek Nursery offers over 600 different garden-worthy plants for sale. We continue to expand our line of exceptional shrubs for sun and shade borders. Browse our listings of Perennials, Shrubs & Vines, Ornamental Grasses, Ferns, and Annuals.

Our perennials and shrubs are appropriate for northern climates (USDA hardiness zones 4-6), offer multi-season interest and are not invasive pests in our region. In addition, we like to ignore hardiness zones and grow a spectacular line of tender perennials and annuals for seasonal color and tropical effects in mixed borders and containers.

POTTERY We sell a distinctive collection of terra cotta, Asian earthenware, glazed, composite and polyethylene pots in both classic and contemporary shapes and designs. We offer many of these pots pre-planted with exciting combinations of flowers and foliage - or we will plant pots and plants purchased at the nursery for a fee.

Our Location

Loomis Creek Nursery is located in western Columbia County in the town of Claverack -- approximately 3 miles southeast of Hudson, New York, 100 miles north of New York City and 35 miles south of Albany. See Directions to Loomis Creek Nursery for more details.
