They Don’t Tell You The Hard Part About Loving Plants

It’s not just the watering schedule.

Or remember to fertilize.

It’s walking into those big box stores… staring at rows of half-dead succulents under fluorescent lights… and feeling completely lost.

Which one will thrive in my home?

How much light does “partial sun” really mean in a Maine winter, indoors?

And why does everyone on Instagram make it look so easy?

Here’s what I’ve learned after 30+ years of helping people with plants…

The difference between a healthy fiddle leaf fig and a sad, brown one isn’t some hidden talent.

It’s having someone actually help you that knows.. We Grow 10’s of thousands of plants every year.

Because plants aren’t decorations.

They are what that brings your home to life when everything outside is frozen and gray.

They’re the quiet morning ritual of checking new growth while your coffee brews.

They’re proof that you can nurture something beautiful… even in the middle of a Maine February.

And you deserve to succeed. You deserve beautiful healthy plants.

That’s why Broadway Gardens exists.

We aren’t trying to sell you the trendiest plant and send you on your way.

But to be your partner in creating an indoor garden you’re actually proud of.

When you walk into our greenhouses… you’re not just another customer trying to figure it out alone.

You’re someone we genuinely want to see succeed.

Got questions about that pothos you’ve been eyeing? Ask them. All of them.

Killed three snake plants and feeling embarrassed? We’ve heard worse. (Trust me.)

Not sure if your north-facing window gets enough light? Let’s talk it through.

Because here’s the truth…

Those big stores? They’re great at stocking shelves.

But they can’t tell you why your rubber plant keeps dropping leaves.

Or which soil mix has the right ph for your ficus tree.

Or why your orchid hasn’t bloomed in years.

We can.

And we will.

What You’ll Find At Broadway Gardens:

Healthy, thriving plants that were actually cared for before you got them… not just shipped in yesterday and shoved onto a shelf.

The right soil, pots, and fertilizers for YOUR specific situation… not just whatever is on sale.

Honest answers from people who’ve been doing this for decades… in Maine… where winter is real and indoor gardening isn’t optional, it’s survival.

Local delivery available… because sometimes hauling a 6-foot monstera in your car isn’t realistic.

And most importantly?

A team that celebrates when you come back and tells us your plants are thriving.

Fresh herbs  On your kitchen window sill

Your bedroom can have a Spider Plant that actually helps filter your air.

This isn’t going to happen because you became a plant expert overnight.
