Goods & Services
Although we concentrate our efforts on growing our plants, we do offer several other services that we think you will find helpful, fun, and informative.




Plants

We grow a full range of sizes and varieties of shade trees, ornamental trees, broadleaf evergreens, and shrubs of all types. We have a huge selection - from Azaleas and Beautyberries to Yaupon hollies and Zelkovas. Our perennial selection is somewhat limited but full of the choice varieties as well as some unusuals. Our containerzed plants range from
  • 1 gallon to 40 gallon containers
  • 4 feet to 16 feet tall evergreens, balled and burlapped in wire baskets
  • 1- to 5-inch caliper ornamental and shade trees, balled and burlapped in wire baskets (Caliper is the diameter of the trunk measured 6 inches above the ground.)

We have over 75 acres of plants.





Delivery

We deliver our plant material on our own trucks to locations in the northern half of Georgia. Delivery charges are based upon distance and size of order. Orders containing plants that weigh more than 125 pounds or so require appropriate machinery at the site for unloading.

NOTE: We are NOT a mail order nursery. And we do not deliver small retail orders (ex: a few small container plants) since it would be cost prohibitive to you.




Discount Policy

Retail customers can enjoy a discount for quantity purchases. On ONE-TIME PURCHASES ONLY: --of $500 or more, receive 10% off; --of $1,000 or more, receive 20% off. There are no additional discounts on sale or special items, although they count towards the total amount purchased.




Landscape Consultations

We offer residential and commercial landscaping consultations. John Dunleavy, President and Owner, has been providing these services for over 30 years. For a fee, he will come to your site and help you plan your design. He, and others on our staff, will help you for free if you come to the nursery, bring pictures, measurements, and other materials that may be helpful in determining what your site may need and what you like. You can see the plants we are talking about and decide if you like them or not. If you already have a design drawn by someone else, bring it to the nursery, and we will show you the plants listed on your plan and help you make substitutes if you don't like what was specified.




The Leaflet™

We create and publish in-house a seasonal gardening publication that has been winning accolades since 1994. It is filled with useful information about plants and ornamental landscaping as well as fun and fanciful facts and inspirational words. The Kid's Kolumn includes a thematic word search. Current issues are free at the nursery and for those signing up to be on our mailng list. You must come to the nursery to add your name to the list. Past issues (there are over 35 of them) are available for sale for only 25 cents each. Go to The Leaflet page on this site for more information and pdfs of some issues.




Advantage Trees™

A special feature at our nursery for the homeowner (and landscaper alike) is our Advantage Tree™ program. We harvest some of our trees and shrubs in sizes that are more manageable for the do-it-yourself homeowner - an Advantage you cannot find in any garden center. These balled and burlapped plants have heads and trunks that exceed those found on container stock at similar heights. We use root balls that are a healthy size for transplant, yet as light as possible for ease of movement. Most importantly, these Advantage Trees™ are economical, being priced so you get more for your money in size and health of the plants. Some varieties available: Oaks, maples, hollies, magnolias, birches, crapemyrtles, zelkovas, elms, and hollies. 18-inch rootball sizes are $69 retail and weigh about 80 pounds. 20-inch rootball sizes are $99 retail and weigh about 120 pounds.
  • A - affordable
  • D - dug from ground
  • V - variety of selection
  • A - acclimated vigor
  • N - named cultivars
  • T - tall sizes
  • A - ample heads & trunks
  • G - grower direct
  • E - easy to transplant.




Specials

We have special pricing on various plants throughout the year. Watch this site for those deals. Also, come to the nursery for unannounced specials. Click on SPECIALS button to left.




Mulches & Amendments

We have pine bark mulch (shredded and nuggets) for sale in bulk (you pick up or we deliver). We recommend bark mulch over pine straw since it lasts longer, looks better longer, and decomposes, creating a richer soil. The slightly higher cost is far outweighed by the longevity.

HINT:

  • 1 yard spread 2" deep covers 160 square feet.
  • 1 yard spread 3" deep covers 120 square feet.
  • 1 yard spread 4" deep covers 80 square feet.
A full size pickup, level load, is about 2 yards. Our truck carries about 12 yards. We do have a delivery charge.

We also have soil conditioner bagged and in bulk This composted, pulverized pine bark is good for incorporating into the soil when planting. It's also good for mulching annual and perennial beds.




Tools (Not Toys) To Tend Your Yard

We have a wonderful line of professional tools for you to tend you yard. Tools are a lifelong investment and most of our tools have lifetime warranties or 5-10 year warranties. You deal with us direct should you need a replacement. Union Tools, Razorback, Sandvik, Felco, van de Koek, and Corona are some of the brands we carry. We have shovels, rakes, spades, hoes, mattochs, forks, hand pruners, loppers, shears, saws, and much more.




Tea & Talk (sm) Meetings & Library

We welcome garden clubs and any other organizations who would like to have a meeting at our nursery. We will provide an instructional talk for 20-30 minutes on a topic of your choice or ours. And participants are invited to take a tour of the nursery. Call Pat for more details or contact at info@pinebushnursery.com. We also have an extensive gardening library that anyone is welcome to use on premises.




Gift Certificates

We have gift certificates. You can use them for plants, gift shop items, and landscape consultations (those that we charge for). Gift certificates are particularly appropriate for plants since you may want to give a plant at a time that's unsuitable for the recipient to plant. With a certificate, your loved one can come to the nursery when she/he is ready to plant and can pick out just what will suit her tastes, location, landscape, etc.
