Martin Viette

MARTIN VIETTE HAS CLOSED PERMANENTLY, BUT, IN ITS PLACE HERITAGE FARM OPENED.  IT IS DEFINITELY WORTH A VISIT TO SEE THIS NEW NURSERY AT THE SAME LOCATION.



Located off of 25A, in Long Island's Gold Coast area of East Norwich, Martin Viette Nurseries sits on 42 acres of land and is home to some of the most beautiful flowering plants, trees, shrubs and garden accents we've seen. Whether you're an avid gardener or you just enjoy looking at beautiful flowers, Martin Viette should be at the top of your list of things to see when you come to Long Island's North Shore.


This full-service, award-winning garden center is open year-round. In the spring and summer the place is bursting with colorful and unique flowers and trees as well as interesting garden fountains, furniture and pottery. During the winter, from mid-September through December, the store opens a Christmas Shop. 


No matter what time of year you come, or what kind of plant or accent you need, the friendly and knowledgeable staff will help you find it. And, since Mother's Day is around the corner, this seems like the perfect place to find the perfect gift.

Planting Fields



Located in Oyster Bay, on the grounds of Planting Fields Arboretum State Historic Park, the former Coe residence is a great example of one of Long Island's Gold Coast estates.  With an amazing interior and wonderful views of the rest of the 409 acre property, it's no wonder the family chose to live here! The park is beautiful all year. In the fall, the foliage is beautiful. In spring and summer, the flowers are blooming. There are also a variety of activities happening in the park ranging from tours of the Coe Mansion to concerts in the park.  Visit the website for details and the calendar of events at www.plantingfields.org.
