Classic Gardens & Landscape
Inc. was founded in January of 1990. Mike
and Ann Pender are the co-owners. Previously, on the same corner
was another landscape/garden center business that Mike had worked at for
five years. When that business left they took everything with them and
Mike and Ann started over from scratch.
Classic Gardens is located in the North East
section of Birmingham known as Centerpoint. The location and mailing address
are the same or 1855 Carson Road, Birmingham, Al. 35215.
The name Classic was chosen to signify the quality
type of garden center that Mike & Ann had envisioned. But a name alone
does not a garden center make. So the questions were asked, what is most
important to the customers that shop at garden centers. Answers such as
excellent quality and a huge selection of hard to find plants were obvious.
But the most important aspects of a quality garden center were excellent
service and a very, very knowledgeable staff.
To us it seems unforgivable the casual way in
which horticultural advice is dispensed. We take painstaking efforts to
assure that what we recommend is accurate and reliable. That is why so
many customers have come to trust us for so long. Classic Gardens has
worked hard to deserve its reputation as a dependable source for information.
Along with that information we, as any business would, hope to make sales.

To help further with the flow of information, Classic Gardens provides
several other services. One is this web site in which information gets
updated periodically. In 1995 Classic Gardens started its own live
call in radio program Saturday mornings at 7:00 AM on News talk 960
AM WERC.
In 2000 Classic Gardens teamed up with Ken Lass and NBC 13 to bring you
gardening spots. These gardening spots aired every Monday morning at approximately
6:20 AM. Begining June 28, 2008, Mike’s radio show can be heard on
WERC 960 AM Saturdays, 7:00 - 8:00 am and on WTBC AM 1230, Tuscaloosa.
Classic Gardens also provides award winning residential
landscaping. Landscaping jobs range from
as little as $1,500 up to $60,000 but with the average job running in
the $3500 to $5500 range. Most of our work is done for home owners with
older homes and older landscaping. We remove the old overgrown shrubs
from in front of the house and put in an appropriate landscape that when
mature, will not be overgrown.
Classic Gardens newest venture has been into lawn
care. After years and years of giving out advice on how to
"do it yourself" lawncare, the next logical step was to provide
the service for those who did not want to do it themselves. The service,
started in 1997, has been very successful and we look forward to continuing
to grow this segment of our business. The lawn care service as well as
the landscape provides service in Jefferson, Shelby and St. Clair counties.
We hope that you will come to visit our location in Centerpoint and that someday in the future you will favor us with your business. At Classic Gardens you will find a full scale, year around garden center. Some of the departments we have include a large selection of perennials, herbs and annuals. Also there are acres of trees and shrubs to choose from including over 50 varieties of azaleas. We have lots of native plant material and include a section of our garden center to attract birds, hummingbirds and butterflies. In our greenhouses you will find many lovely hanging baskets and flowers to choose from. I almost forgot to tell you about all the statuary and concrete items that we have. You will find a knowledgeable and dedicated staff at Classic Gardens ready and eager to serve you.
We hope you come to visit us soon.
