Relevant Background: "A garden centre (American English spelling; U.S. nursery or garden center) is a retail business that primarily sells plants and related products for domestic gardening.[1] Gardening centers usually revolve around outdoor home improvement and décor, selling anything from plants to outdoor ordainments.

It evolved from the concept of a retail plant nursery, offering a broader range of outdoor products and additional on-site facilities.[citation needed]

Today, garden centres typically source their plants from specialist nurseries rather than propagating them on-site. In addition to plants, garden centres may offer a variety of other products and services, including homewaregifts, and cafes.[2].." (Garden centre - Wikipedia)
