History

Established in 1985.

Mary Lou Herd opened up her nursery in 1985 at the site of a former chinchilla farm. She became an immediate hit as the nursery became widely known as a place to get unusual perennials. After being diagnosed wi th colon cancer she closed the nursery in 2002. There is a Memorial Garden Tour held in her honor every year in the first week of May. After her death, two sisters reopened the nursery as Cottage Nursery. They were open for a couple of years and then closed for a couple of years before Regina Poudel, a long time customer of both Mary Lou and the two sisters found out they were closed and decided to reopen it as Heavenly Vintage Nursery in 2012.
