Mark Burnett began growing plants in his backyard in 1979. Today, Burnett's Wholesale Nursery has blossomed into a thriving business that is a member of the Manatee County Chamber of Commerce, the Florida Nursery Growers and the Landscape Association. The nursery is now run by Mark's son Mike. Like his father, Mike has spent his whole life in Manatee County.
The other employees at Burnett's are all friendly and knowledgeable, but two of them deserve extra notice. Resident horticultural expert Marcus Ballano has 15 years of experience in his profession. Meanwhile, in addition to writing a gardening column for the Bradenton Herald, staff member Chase Landre has had two books published—Snowbird Gardening and Design Your Own Landscaping.
Please note that Burnett's is only able to deliver within Manatee and Sarasota counties.
