The nursery was founded in 1896 by Heinrich Junge. I am the fourth generation to run the nursery, which I took over in March 2000. Our
nursery is about 2.5 hectares in size with 1200 m² in greenhouses. We employ 15 people, with more in high season.Our Customers
Our customers are landscape gardeners, garden architects and many other nurseries. Most of our plants are delivered within Germany, but we also have customers in Switzerland, Austria and Great Britain.
At our nursery you will find a retail shop about 4000 m² in size. We sell plants for the garden and some hardware. We will do mail order for anyone both in and outside Germany.
Our Plants
We propagate a wide range of perennials, grasses, ferns, herbs,
water plants and water lilies. In addition, we produce a range of plants that are used as “sewage helpers” to clean waste water (like Phragmites australis or Scirpus lacustris), plants for the securing of
riverbanks/riversides, and plants that are grown in a special way to be suitable for rooftop gardens.
Worldwide known water lily Pennisetum alopecuroides 'Hameln' was selected from our
nursery and got several awards from gardening societies.
Rare Plants
Our catalogue contains more than 1000 varieties. We are growing an
interesting range of variegated and double flowering perennials. We travel regularly to several european gardeners and specialists to find new plants which are worth propagating. The variegated plants are
especially interesting. Since leaves are present in a garden for many more months than flowers, variegated plants could become a very interesting way to design and celebrate a garden. Almost every
season of the year could be colourful. The use of variegated plants has yet to be fully actualized in German gardens.
