Mile 5.2 Greenhouse & Gift Shop, LLC is a privately owned corporation operating year round and centrally located in Downtown Eagle River, Alaska, just a fifteen minute drive from Anchorage. As the big box store epidemic expands to Eagle River, a small business such as ours has become noticeably unique.
We have a fantastic selection of 125+ varieties of second year Zone 3, Perennials, Berry Plants and Fruit Trees wintering over under several feet of snow to increase hardiness and eliminate transplant shock. We grow 150+ varieties of colorful annuals along with beautiful hanging baskets in every color of the rainbow for both sun and shade. We're well known for our huge selection of Herbs, especially Basil. Our Herbs are also available Fresh Cut by the bag ready for your dinner tonight.
Year round we have one of the largest selections of unique and unusual Tropical plants that you just won't find elsewhere. Lemon Trees, Lime and Orange Trees, Banana Trees, Hawaiian Volcano Plants, Jasmine, Gardenias, Bromeliads, Tillandsias, Air Plants and Juniper Bonsai are just a few of our specialties.
We are much more than a Greenhouse. We carry a variety of Gifts and Gourmet Foods from around the world. Drop by for a present for any event or for anyone on your list. Our gifts are truly unusual and won't be found elsewhere. Our shopping environment is warm and humid year-round with pleasant smells wafting through the air. Even on the darkest coldest of days we are here to provide you with a tropical paradise. It is always spring at Mile 5.2 Greenhouse. Or you could always visit our online store!
Employees at Mile 5.2 Greenhouse are friendly and knowledgeable. We have years of experience so feel free to ask us questions or share stories about your garden when you give us a visit.
