A
BRIEF HISTORY
Vineland Nurseries, owned by Jim & Simone Lounsbery,
has been a family based business since the 1970's. Back then, Jim
fell in love with dwarf and unusual conifers, Japanese Maples and
Rhododendrons, plants which were basically non-existent at the time.
With this passion at hand, Jim wanted to make these wonderful plants
more available to the homeowner and Vineland Nurseries was born.
Today, he & his wife along with their dedicated staff and three
children continue this mission. At present, in addition to dwarf
and unusual evergreens, Japanese Maples and Rhododendrons, one can
expect to experience a selection of numerous rare & unusual
trees & shrubs, perennials and a wide range of nursery plants.
