What makes Effinger Garden Center special?

A grow-on-site model paired with a two-decade Proven Winners Certified designation gives the shop a distinctive depth across annuals, perennials, and shrubs, backed by representation of Monrovia and Greenleaf alongside Proven Winners.

  • The perennial offering leans into natives and pollinator-friendly plants, reflecting a Missouri Grow Native membership held since 2006, with a dedicated deer-resistant and native plants section.
  • Trees and shrubs cover Japanese maples, redbuds, and dogwoods alongside classic flowering shrubs, lilac, hydrangea, butterfly bush, and spirea, plus ornamental grasses across deer-resistant varieties.
  • Seasonal herb, fruit, and vegetable starts run from early spring through the cool-weather restock, complemented by organic soils and fertilizers from the Fox Farm and Espoma Organic collections.
  • Landscape design, container planting, and expert plant-selection consultation round out the services for home landscapes and patio pots.
