· EASTHAM, CAPE COD · 40+ YEARS LOCAL
A boutique, hand-watered garden center in Eastham — natives, perennials, tropicals in the solarium, custom containers and local artisan finds. Come wander.
THE PONDEROSA EXPERIENCE
We're the only garden center in Eastham — and a genuinely different experience from the big, automated nurseries down-Cape. Every single plant is hand-watered, with eyes-on, hands-on attention most days. It's why our plants leave healthier.
Wander among the deepest native selection on the Cape, step into the tropical solarium to meet our resident parrots, browse custom containers made to order, and find local honey, soap, candles and photography in the gallery.
STEP INSIDE
Fountains, blooms, natives and the tropical solarium — here's a look at the yard.
WHAT YOU'LL FIND
That's the fun of it — photos only go so far. Here's a taste of what's in the yard.
Beach plum, bayberry, native perennials and grasses — the Cape's best native selection.
Color all season long, plus herbs, vegetables, trees and shrubs.
Made to order — seasonal arrangements, sympathy planters and more.
A warm solarium of tropicals — now home to our resident parrots.
Local honey, soap, candles, syrups and a photography gallery.
Premium soils, compost, biochar blends and mulch — bagged or in bulk.
MADE TO ORDER
Seasonal centerpieces, sympathy and get-well planters, and one-of-a-kind arrangements — built by hand with live plants.
ALL SEASON LONG
A favorite thing to do on a Cape afternoon — hands-on classes for adults and kids in our conference room and event tent.
