For over 80 years, Scott’s Nursery has been your trusted source for all of your growing needs.
Atlantic Canada’s Largest Garden Centre
More than eighty years ago, Oliver Scott started growing perennials and vegetables in Lincoln upon his arrival from Scotland. In 1935, with his wife Martha, they constructed their first greenhouse and increased the variety of products they grew.
The business has expanded to over 5 acres of greenhouses for growing bedding plants, potted plants, seasonal crops, spring bulbs, perennials, hanging baskets, etc. We also carry an extensive inventory of evergreens, flowering shrubs, shade and fruit trees, fertilizers, bulk soils, and much much more!
We feature a question and answer session on CBC radio, as well as here on our website. Please use this form to ask any questions and we do our best to provide you with the answer to your questions!
Tiny holes in my Virginia Creeper vine and other plants in the garden, what causes these?
It seems whatever we plant there is an insect to eat it: earwigs, rose slugs, leafhoppers, caterpillars, aphids, white fly, spider mite, slugs and snails. Keep your garden clean by removing dead leaves and waste plant material. Feed and water regularly because healthy plants will better withstand insect damage. Monitor the amount of insects and use insect dust and sprays when it seems these pests have the upper hand.
