US (MT): Nursery and garden center is blooming with a diverse selection of plants

Everything’s coming up roses at Nana’s Bloomers, not to mention daisies, sunflowers, begonias, petunias, and all sorts of other annuals, perennials, herbs, and vegetables — nearly 3½ acres of them, in fact.
“In late April and early May, we’ll have at least half a million plants in stock with more coming in all the time,” owner B.J. Martin says.

“Unless you’ve been here in person, it’s hard to even imagine how big our volume is. We have plants displayed overhead, on walls, and on tables. Some people can’t believe we don’t charge admission to come in and look around.”
