Waterford & Muskego, Wisconsin
Ninety-nine percent of what we sell starts as a seed, a cutting, or a plug in our own Waterford greenhouses. Spring flowers, fall mums, and fresh evergreen containers at Christmas.
Two locations. Waterford year-round by season, Muskego every spring.
Welcome
Paul's Petal Pushers is a retail seasonal greenhouse grower in Waterford, Wisconsin. We have been growing flowers and plants here for over 30 years.
We grow 99% of our plants ourselves, from cuttings, seeds, and plugs, in five commercial greenhouses. That is the whole difference. We watched every plant on the bench come up, so we can tell you which one will actually be happy on your shady front porch and which one will sulk.
Shop with us and your yard comes alive with color that lasts through the summer and into fall.
“Since we grow them, we know them.”
Three seasons
We are a seasonal greenhouse. Spring is flowers, fall is mums, and November turns the place into a wreath shop. Here is the year.
Greenhouses open May 1
Annuals, perennials, herbs, and vegetable plants, plus hanging baskets and containers built for sun, shade, or part sun. We grow Proven Winner varieties and other breeders that perform as well or better.

Mums, when they are ready
Single-color and multi-color mums in both containers and hanging baskets. If the greenhouse is not staffed, there is a cash box set out and you are welcome to help yourself.

November 5 – December 15
Pre-made and custom evergreen containers, hanging baskets, and wreaths, built daily with boughs cut fresh in Upper Michigan.

We plant your containers
Every year we custom plant hundreds of containers for our customers. Drop off your pots, tell one of our staff what you are picturing and where it is going to sit, and come back in a few days to pick up a container that is already planted, watered, and thriving.
No bags of soil in the trunk. No guessing whether those four plants will get along.
Bring in the pots you already own. Any size, any style.
Sun, shade, or part sun. Colors you love. Our staff will suggest what actually works there.
A few days later it is done, professionally planted and ready to set out.
Container classes
Come make something. In spring you build your own container and leave it with us to grow on until it is full of color. In November and December you build an evergreen container or basket with fresh-cut boughs. Bring friends, bring family, or come by yourself and meet some.
Farmers markets
Find us at the Brookfield Farmers Market in May, June, September, and October. We always bring a great selection.

Who we are
He is an accountant by profession. His mom kept a yard full of flowers, his dad kept a big garden, and a job at a friend's retail greenhouse after college got him hooked for good.
Today 99% of what we sell is grown in our own five greenhouses. One of our employees has worked here more than 30 years. Many have been here over 10. Two are Master Gardeners. They, like you, cannot wait to get back to the greenhouse each year to begin the season.
Two locations
Waterford is where everything is grown. Muskego is a spring stand in the Piggly Wiggly lot, right off Racine Ave.
Five commercial greenhouses where 99% of what we sell is started from seed, cutting, or plug.

Questions?
Not sure whether we are open, whether the mums are ready, or what will survive on a north-facing porch? Call. We would rather answer the phone than have you make the drive for nothing.
