About Us  >  History
In 1958 Carl Besse started a modest landscape business. Since that time, Rutland Nurseries has grown considerably providing professional service to several thousand commercial and industrial customers throughout New England. Today, Rutland Nurseries is one of the largest and most respected landscape construction and maintenance businesses in New England.

Rutland Nurseries offers full landscape design, construction and maintenance services. Beginning with the work of a professional landscape architect, we can complement your building design with a complete landscape plan.

Paying particular attention to land grading and drainage needs, Rutland Nurseries can develop a complete design including plantings and underground irrigation systems. Once the design is complete, we can transform those plans into reality.

After the work is completed, Rutland Nurseries doesn't just walk away. Offering a complete maintenance program, we begin early in the spring and handle every detail well into the winter. The end result is a facility whose beauty is greatly enhanced. Customers, as well as employees, will appreciate the difference.

Since 1958, Rutland Nurseries has worked hard to develop a reputation for excellence. By paying attention to every detail it can add value to any landscaping investment.

"Jay and I want to thank you for making our home so beautiful. We especially want to thank you for turning our bland, uninviting backyard into a magical, secret garden. Living in the heart of the city, we never imagined we could feel as though we were a million miles away. Your attention to every detail was more than impressive, as was your professional crew."
Rachel and Jay Egan
