plant nurseries
Where flora starts
Plant nurseries is the plural of plant nursery—a place where plants are grown and sold, typically for landscaping or gardening.
Nurseries propagate seedlings, shrubs, and trees until they're ready for transplanting: We picked up some tomato starts at the plant nursery.
The term distinguishes from nurseries for children.
