When you are planning a garden or looking for flowers and indoor plants, Pesche's Flowers & Garden Center brings several departments together at 170 South River Road in Des Plaines. The family-owned business combines greenhouses, outdoor growing and shopping areas, a flower shop and a gift department.
Plants for outdoor and indoor spaces
You can browse annuals, perennials, shrubs, trees, roses and hanging baskets alongside vegetable, herb and fruit plants. Houseplants and tropical plants provide options for indoor growing, while seeds, bulbs and gardening supplies support other types of planting projects.
The company says it grows many of its plants on site. Its website also includes a searchable plant library and Garden Help Desk articles, giving you additional information to review when considering plants and seasonal garden tasks.
Flowers, gifts and home accents
The flower shop organizes arrangements by occasions such as birthdays, anniversaries, congratulations and sympathy. Seasonal floral collections appear alongside its everyday offerings, so the available selection changes through the year.
Beyond flowers, Pesche's describes gifts, home decor, pottery, fountains and holiday items. These departments let you compare living plants with other decorative pieces during the same visit.
Visiting the Des Plaines garden center
