American Plant

Whether it’s the secret to growing orchids (northern exposure and no fussing) or an organic solution to weed control (limestone), American Plant has provided answers to Bethesda gardeners for more than 85 years.

According to General Manager Haynes Davis, employees try out new products on their home gardens so they can speak from firsthand experience.

Bethesda customer Michael Cairo says the vast selection of plants and shrubs keeps him coming back. “I was looking for a grapevine as a gift,” Cairo says. “American Plant had five varieties.”
