Hellebore Season is here !
We love these hardy perennials, and try to offer a good selection of sizes and cultivars. The newer introductions can have upward-facing flowers and gorgeous variegated foliage!
Me, at age 13 in my first greenhouse in Regina, Saskatchewan, with my guinea pig, Zachary.
Where did 50 years go?
It was on November 1st, 1975 that I opened my now famous flower shop on West 41st Ave. in Kerrisdale!
I was from Richmond, BC, and knew nobody in Vancouver! I followed my dreams and flew by the seat of my pants! I liked moss and twigs, orchids and clay pots, not triangular arrangements of “glads” and “mums”… As it turns out, I was very creative and attracted a fun and appreciative clientele. This included celebrities and Royalty.
Although I have moved on to the nursery industry (my childhood dream), my florist shop still bears my name and is still thriving in its original location.
Could it be that dreams do come true?
When artistic talent, sweat, business savvy and encyclopedic plant knowledge are combined, it seems they can…..
Southlands Nursery is a walk-in fantasy,
where beauty always comes first.

Beautiful iron garden furniture
has just arrived from Europe !
Several years ago, at the massive ‘Maison et Object ‘ trade show in Paris, I encountered this amazing manufacturer of reproduction French antique garden furniture. It is all hand forged in Romania, and I never dreamt we would ever have it…..
I lost their contact information, of course…….
I found them again via a random garden/business email, and now, six months later, it is here in Vancouver. By dealing directly with the manufacturer, I was able to negotiate a fair price !
I feel good about supporting an artisanal small business so far away !
Berg’s Pots Are Here!
These very popular, Danish- designed pots are back in stock. They are made in Italy and are available in several vintage and modern designs. Prices start at $20.00 for a pot with matching saucer.
FRENCH POTS
We have just received a large shipment of hand-made traditional pots from Provence, France. These pots are frost-proof, but the solid coloured glazes can spall [chip] in severe cold temperatures. Surprisingly, the pots with the most chippy glazes are the most valuable! [Google antique Provence garden urns to see what we mean].
Genuine antique Anduze pots [shown above] are thousands of dollars each. They are EXTREMELY rare!
ENGLISH POTS
Handmade in England, these traditional British flower pots are frost proof and come with a 10 year warranty. Completely charming for a few herbs, favourite geraniums, or primulas… Prices start at ONLY $25.00!
Thomas Hobbs and Southlands Nursery are Canada’s ONLY importer of these cottage treasures!
Did you know that we now have a FREE cafe ?
Thomas Hobbs has modelled our little cafe after Parisienne street cafes, with the same wicker chairs and tables seen in France.
Come down to Southlands, go for a walk along the Fraser river with your dog and warm up in “Cafe Fleur”.
Choose from delicious hot chocolate, espresso, lattes, cappuccino, vanilla hot milk and more.
Come and check out our new
layout under our new roof!
This meant we
had to empty the entire building, and allowed us to
create a more “open” look inside. New displays, new antiques and garden furniture
are incorporated throughout.
Customers are encourage to sit and enjoy all the beauty!
