Springhouse Gardens - Where Buying Plants Is A Walk In The Park!
Springhouse Gardens is a unique garden center and landscape company specializing in rare and unusual plants and personalized garden design and installation services. Owner Richard J. Weber and his talented staff have transformed an old tobacco farm into a wonderful shopping experience. Comprised of 6½ acres just south of Lexington, Springhouse Gardens showcases beautiful gardens, dry-laid stonewalls and water gardens all in a rustic rural setting.
A native of Lexington, Richard has been a plant lover and a gardener for most of his life. After graduating from the University of Kentucky with a Bachelor of Science in Landscape Architecture, he earned a Masters Degree in Landscape Architecture from the University of Massachusetts in Amherst. Richard worked for a small, specialty nursery in Connecticut, designing gardens with highly unusual plants before returning home to Kentucky to join the staff of a large Design/Build landscape firm in Lexington. In 1995, Richard and his wife Debbie founded Springhouse Gardens on the site of an old tobacco farm on Historic U.S. 68, just south of Lexington.
