How We Manage Beech Leaf Disease
Over the past several years Beech Leaf Disease (BLD) has become a topic of increasing discussion. BLD affects both Fagus americana and Fagus sylvatica. It was first discovered in Ohio in 2012,...
Read moreTake a look at our field operation and learn about our innovative 8 step growing process. Then schedule a nursery tour to meet our staff and see our plants in person.
Good soil is a gift and ours is a deep, well-drained, silt loam of the highest productivity available anywhere in the U.S. To absorb all the goodness of it, our plants spend more time in the ground. And our root balls capture most of the existing root system because they exceed industry standards by at least one size.
A recurring problem that all of us face in this industry is availability: finding the plants we need when we need them. This eBook will equip you to meet the challenges of sourcing plants that have consistent health, size, and fullness from year to year.
Here in the mid-Atlantic region, we benefit from growing conditions that sit comfortably between the hard long winters of the north and the prolonged heat and humidity of the south. A longer growing season accelerates our production timeline allowing us to grow hardy, healthy shrubs and ornamentals well-suited for planting in neighboring states to the northwest and northeast of us.
Waverly Farm maintains an extensive catalog representing more than 400 cultivars of the most in-demand shrubs and ornamentals on our 200 acre facility. Our stock is 100% field grown, 90% propagated on site, and available in larger sizes not readily available from most growers.

Is there a better way to install privacy hedges? Yes. Our way. The better, faster way to privacy screening is to install a finished hedge rather than wait years for smaller plants to fill in. We grow a variety of hedging plants in sets of three that are carefully pruned to grow together. At harvest, we separate individual plants for shipping. One face of each plant will be numbered for easy installation in the order they were grown. Instant hedge!
Does this thing let you go more than five stars? I’ve been buying plants for many years and from all over the country. In doing so, I have a pretty good idea of what to expect at your average nursery operation. That said, there are a handful of growers that exceed all expectations. These are growers who so obviously run a tight ship that it is apparent even just pulling up to the office. The property is immaculate. The stock uniform, neatly rowed and tended. Tidy. Weed free. Blemish free. When you place an order with them, you don’t have to cross your fingers about what you might expect to receive, and you certainly don’t have to worry about what your clients might think on the other end. Waverly Farm is one of those growers. I always look forward to getting stock in from them just to see folks’ reaction. I have yet to be disappointed…
Derrin Hayes, Plant Buyer J. W. TOWNSEND Landscapes, VA
We are an upscale Landscaping company, and dealing with clients and nurseries can be tough. Tiffany and Lindsey are a breath of fresh air, making the whole process seamless. I never have any surprises when it comes to inventory, service or deliveries. They are up front with everything and I love working with them. I've had some horror stories when it comes to dealing with other growers, but they are truly the easiest to work with.
