Leaders in a

Welcome to the Intrinsic Perennial Gardens (IPG) website. Our goals for the website are to provide information that may not be feasible in our print catalog. First and foremost is our Picture Gallery where we have over 300 pictures. Second would be many plant lists we have generated due to customer interest and requests. Then there is much more about the company and what we do including information about the founder, our plant introductions, and links to other plant related websites.

Enjoy your look around and comeback to see the rest when you have time. Be sure to add our site to your favorites.
Intrinsic Perennial Gardens, Inc. is a wholesale container nursery growing mainly 1 gallon perennials including tender perennials, ferns, grasses, shrubs and vines.

Best Regards,
Brent Horvath
President



The Green Line- Ferns grown greener Our first plants to be grown using a biodegradable pot. From now on the ferns from Intrinsic will not only be grown in a biodegradable pot, but the soil will come from your own back yard, which consists of local leaf compost. This type of soil is what ferns grow in naturally. These plants will be fertilized with organic fertilizer. All plants are grown from spores, tissue culture, or nursery grown divisions to eliminate wild collected roots as a source. Ferns are naturally pest free and so insecticides are never used on these plants. They also tend to be deer resistant. Ferns combine great with other shade plants like Hosta, Heuchera, and Astilbe.
