Plant and See opened it's doors in 1976 and has been one of Eastern North Carolina's finest garden centers ever since. It remains a family business with Tom, Patrice, their daughter Lindsay and son-in-law Seth all on board.
Plant and See Nursery was started on the Lassiter family land. Tom Lassiter had received an English degree from ECU but had a passion for horticulture and a love of growing. This passion has stayed with him as he has remained owner, operator, and grower of Plant and See for over 40 years. Tommy has dedicated his life to locating and growing the best crops for this region while staying up-to-date on the newest varieties.
