Rosedale Nurseries, Inc.

What Rosedale Nurseries, Inc. does

Rosedale Nurseries, Inc. is a vertically integrated retail nursery and landscape services company headquartered in Hawthorne, NY, founded in 1898 and led by second-generation owner C. Powers Taylor. It operates an 11+ acre retail Nursery Center at its Hawthorne headquarters offering trees, shrubs, perennials, annuals, houseplants, herbs/vegetables, garden décor, lawn and garden supplies, and seasonal merchandise, alongside more than 400 acres of field-grown tree and shrub farms in the Hudson Valley (Montgomery and Gardiner) that produce specimens up to 40 feet high. A separate Landscape Department provides design, site preparation, planting, and follow-up care for residential clients ranging from urban gardens to large estates, supported by a tiered delivery service covering Metro NY, Fairfield, Bergen, Putnam, Rockland counties, and three Manhattan zones.

The business generates revenue across four streams: retail plant and supply sales, professional landscape design and installation services, transaction-based delivery, and gift cards. Customer mix is horizontal — primarily home gardeners and landscape professionals purchasing through the retail center, supplemented by estate and large-property owners engaging the Landscape Department. Notable institutional references include The New York Botanical Gardens, Brooklyn Botanical Gardens, Wave Hill, The Frick Collection, The Metropolitan Museum of Art, Battery Park, The High Line, Lasdon Arboretum, Kykuit, Phillipsburg Manor, Boscobel, and Kensico Cemetery; these appear as showcase references rather than as contracted enterprise accounts.

The company has no disclosed funding, no parent entity, and operates as an independent private corporation. Its competitive position rests on vertically integrated growing capacity, 125+ years of regional brand equity, multi-channel distribution (retail, delivery, on-site landscape consultations), and educational content (Plantsman's Guides, horticulture calculators). Seed-brand relationships (Harts, Botanical Interests, Hudson Valley Seeds, Seeds of Change, Renee's Garden) and a native-plant partnership with American Beauties Native Plants support product breadth, while PR coverage (News 12 Westchester) and Facebook/Instagram presence extend reach.

Direct peers

• Hicks Nurseries: Long-established (since 1853) Long Island, NY garden center and landscape services provider. Directly comparable as a regional, multi-generational retail nursery with grower relationships, landscape design/installation, and a similar high-end homeowner/institutional customer base in the NY metro area.
• White Flower Farm: Connecticut-based grower-retailer specializing in perennials, shrubs, and landscape-grade plant material with a strong mail-order/direct-to-consumer channel. Closely comparable premium retail nursery with grower operations serving the Northeast.
• Monrovia Nursery Company: One of the largest wholesale nursery growers in the U.S., producing container-grown shrubs, trees, and perennials for retail garden centers. Comparable as a major grower-supplier whose plants end up on retail nursery benches similar to Rosedale's.
• Bailey Nurseries: Large Midwestern wholesale nursery grower with branded plant lines (Endless Summer hydrangeas, First Editions). Comparable as a multi-region grower producing landscape-grade trees and shrubs for retail and landscape contractor channels.
• Proven Winners: Major wholesale plant brand marketing annuals, perennials, and shrubs to independent garden centers. Comparable as a grower-brand feeding into the same independent-retail nursery channel that Rosedale operates in.

Regional players

• Armstrong Garden Centers: California-based chain of retail garden centers with grower relationships and landscape services. Comparable regional retail nursery model, though operating in a West Coast climate and market.
• Pike Nurseries: Multi-location retail garden center chain in the Atlanta metro area. Comparable as a regional retail nursery operator serving homeowners with plants, landscape services, and seasonal goods, but in a different geography.
• Andre Viette Farm & Nursery: Virginia-based retail nursery and perennial grower with on-site garden center and landscape services. Comparable mid-Atlantic regional grower-retailer with similar product mix and service orientation.

Broad incumbents

• SiteOne Landscape Supply: Public national distributor of landscaping supplies, irrigation, and nursery products to landscape professionals. Comparable as a supplier into the same landscape professional channel Rosedale serves, but at much larger scale across a broad product portfolio.
• The Home Depot: Largest U.S. home improvement retailer with extensive garden center operations selling plants, tools, and supplies. Represents the broad incumbent competing for entry-level gardening customers and exerts pricing pressure on independents.
