Kittens In Need Of A Home...

We've got these 3 cute kittens we found in one of our greenhouses. They are free to good homes. Very affectionate, friendly and adorable! Litter box trained, two girls and a boy. Boy is in the middle of the picture. If you are interested, send us an email.

Announcement...

The Schannen Family and RareFind Nursery Staff regret to announce that Henry 'Hank' Schannen, founder and owner of RareFind Nursery, passed away on Wednesday, September 16, 2009. We are committed to continuing his vision for RareFind Nursery and hope you continue to support us. Your caring and concern in this difficult time is greatly appreciated.

RareFind Nursery grew out of Hank's passion for Rhododendron's. His focus was on growing and producing rhododendrons that would survive and thrive in the challenging eastern U.S. climate. Hank introduced plants he bred, such as his signature R.'Solidarity', now grown worldwide, R.'Hank's Mellow Yellow', Golden Globe, and Purple Elf'. He also introduced plants bred by others, such as R.'Jurassic Fantasy' and R.'Visiting Angels'.
