Welcome to Plant and Gnome

Plant and Gnome is a garden nursery with growing locations in Charleston and  Gilmer County in central West Virginia,  USA. From this website or by mail order you can purchase an eclectic mixture of bare root, (in season); and containerized ornamental trees, shrubs and have them shipped to your door.. We also sell willow cuttings, and Christmas wreaths. In Charleston and Central WV we also undertake landscape installations.

Look at Plant Price List for a quick overview of the plants we grow. We last updated our Price List, on March 27th , 2009.  We may have a small quantities of other plants not listed, or in other sizes to what is listed,  it never hurts to ask.

 On a personal level we are hoping to get into bees this year. Life is fascinating.

Save the date ! Once again Plant and Gnome will be an outdoor exhibitor at the Vandalia Garden Festival held at the WV State Cultural Center in Charleston on Saturday April 18th. This event will feature 25 exhibitors and Speakers and Workshops on gardening. More details will soon be published at: http://www.wvculture.org/

Happy gardening, Chris. Chief Executive Gnome
