Bernice and Dean Warren, owners of Warren’s Southern Gardens, acquired Kingwood Landscape Supply & Nursery in 2006. They have worked ever since to revitalize the selection of material offered and build a one-of-a-kind garden center for area residents.

Warren’s Southern Gardens offers 15 to 100 gallon trees, experienced staff and Master Gardeners to diagnose and solve garden problems, and referrals to local landscapers for residents seeking help.

Invite friends, relatives and neighbors to enjoy an afternoon exploring Warren’s Southern Gardens and the all-new Magnolia Blossom Home & Garden Boutique. The Magnolia Blossom offers distinctive items for the home, garden and more!

Gardening items include bird houses, “How To” books, hummingbird feeders, tools and watering cans. And the little ones won’t be left out with nature education items, gardening tools and aprons available for children.

The latest trend in home entertaining is bringing indoor living to the outdoors! Don’t miss the home décor items and garden art in the boutique that make perfect accents for any patio or outdoor kitchen, and make great gifts for any occasion. Searching for unique art?
