From a roadside stand in 1939, to the largest family owned production and retail Nursery in Michigan, our roots are steadfast and growing. Our founders, Darrell and Marian Bordine instilled in us that Bordine Grown means The Best…The Best Plants…The Best Quality…The Best Selection…The Best Service, brought to you every day by our Plant-Loving 'Purple People'. Darrell and Marian Bordine risked everything to start a roadside stand selling flowers. They had a vision to build the area's best nursery in a then undeveloped Avon Township. They believed in growing their own plants to insure the highest level of quality and variety for their customers. Today, the same principles hold true at Bordine's. We are as committed as ever to our heritage of growing our own plants. Nowhere else in Michigan will you find a retail nursery growing more of their OWN annuals, perennials, trees, shrubs, and roses as we do. Nor will you find another retail nursery with our size, variety, and selection of plant material. We have four convenient locations in Southeastern Michigan to serve you. Our original location in Rochester Hills, which was the site of our roadside stand in 1939; our second location in Clarkston which was established in 1978; and our Grand Blanc and Brighton Garden Centers which both opened in 2001. Please see our maps to exact locations. During our spring, we employ over 600 "Purple People" throughout our retail locations and locally based production (growing) facilities to insure you enjoy the "Bordine Experience" and the best quality plants possible. With more than 70 years of growing outstanding plants, we are proud to be MICHIGAN OWNED & FAMILY OWNED since 1939. |
