All About Us

Since 1982, R.P. Tuthill & Associates has been a trusted name in the world of horticulture, providing reliable service and top-tier plants to garden centers and landscape contractors across the tri-state area.

We take pride in representing some of the finest growers located in prime growing regions throughout the U.S.

 

These distinguished growers offer a range of B&B and containerized plant material, ensuring a fresh and diverse selection every year. This enables us to bring new and exciting varieties and cultivars to our customers with each changing season.

​

What truly distinguishes R.P. Tuthill & Associates from others in the field is our dedication to building and maintaining strong connections with our growers. We commit to visiting each grower 1-3 times annually. These visits serve multiple purposes: they allow us to forge closer working ties, facilitate the exchange of feedback between growers and end users, and provide us with crucial insights into the industry's ever-evolving landscape.

 

Moreover, during our visits, we meticulously photograph hundreds of plants from each grower. This is not just to catalog our offerings but to provide a transparent look into the quality of the plants. Many of our photographs include a measuring stick, giving our clients a clear sense of scale and perspective. This attention to detail ensures that our customers receive an accurate representation of what they're purchasing.

​

Beyond our catalog, our team is adept at guiding our clients in making the best choices for their needs. Whether you're a quaint, family-owned garden center or a vast wholesaling operation, we invest time in understanding your unique requirements and preferences. Our goal is to build lasting relationships so that we can consistently match you with plants that will not only thrive but also delight your clientele.

​

At R.P. Tuthill & Associates, it's not just about plants; it's about cultivating trust, quality, and enduring partnerships.
