Ralph's Greenhouse is Closing

Dear Friends, Customers and Family,


After more than 55 years in business, on December 3, 2012, Ralph’s Florist and Greenhouse will be going out of business.  We wanted to inform you, as our valued customer, about our closure.  This is a decision, which has been a long time coming, and was not taken lightly.  The greenhouse, along with the things I've learned and the people I've met, has been a major focus of my life for the past 24 years.


I would like to take this time to thank all of my past and present employees, especially my family, without their help this greenhouse would have closed long ago.  Through the years my wife, children, nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends have all taken turns planting, watering and helping customers.  I am thankful for my family’s support and I am glad that my grandsons were able to spend so much time here during our last months in business.

I also wanted to take the time to thank you for having been a loyal customer.  Many of you have been Ralph’s customers for years and we have appreciated the support you have given our local, family-owned business.  We have looked forward to seeing you year after year, and we will miss you. 


Final Sale Dates are December 15 and 16 from 9-4
