411 Southwest St, Sorento 62086

Overview

Fred's Greenhouse & Nursery is a long-running family-run greenhouse in Sorento, Illinois, in operation for more than 25 years. The shop pairs a substantial annual and perennial offering with a working landscaping side, with reduced off-season hours running on appointment.

What makes Fred's Greenhouse & Nursery special?

An unusually deep hanging-basket inventory, more than 2,000 baskets across flowering, fern, and foliage varieties, gives the greenhouse a clear retail anchor that draws drive-from-the-metro shoppers.

  • Hanging baskets come in multiple container styles: 10-inch plastic, wire baskets, and moss baskets in three sizes, a variety unusual for greenhouses at this scale.
  • The plant offering covers annuals, perennials, shrubs, and trees alongside vegetable starts during the growing season.
  • A landscaping side handles garden maintenance and lawn mowing, with the greenhouse and landscape operations running out of the same property.

What fellow gardeners are saying

  • Shoppers describe the basket and bedding-flower selection as consistently healthy and well-presented across visits.
  • Returning customers single out the hydrangeas and broader perennial inventory for quality matching the basket lineup.
