J.R. Johnson Supply, a 93 year-old distributor of horticulture supplies announces the on-line availability of products for the enthusiastic backyard gardener. As one of the most trusted names in the horticulture industry JR Johnson Supply has an extensive inventory of products for professional growers in the greenhouse, nursery, landscape, and retail garden center space, and now is offering products and services to the serious non-commercial grower.
"There are many serious gardeners and growers who do not grow commercially, but have the same supply needs as the professional," said Paul Wilmes, President of JR Johnson Supply. "The local garden center or retail outlet is not going to have the selection of professional grade soil mixes and organic fertilizers that we offer."
Some examples of products that can be purchased at their on-line store are Hobby Greenhouse Kits, Compost Tea Brewers, Raised Garden Beds, Compost Bins, Compost Aerators and Rain Barrels. These products along with a vast assortment of chemicals, soil mediums, accessories and fertilizers will provide the growing enthusiast exactly what he or she needs to create that flourishing garden.
In addition, JR Johnson has tremendous growing experience and knowledge that a serious backyard gardener could rely on for help with those challenging gardening issues that also plague the professional greenhouses growers.
