About

Rockledge Gardens was founded in 1960 by Harry Witte, a bulb farmer who had settled in Brevard County in 1948 with his wife Mary. In the earliest days, before the Space Coast boom, Rockledge Gardens was essentially a road-side stand run on the honor system; our sign said, “grab a bag of soil and leave your money in the can”. Through the 1960s and 1970s we evolved into a full-fledged nursery business; the largest and most complete garden center in Brevard County. In 2022, Rockledge Gardens was sold to new owners. Today Rockledge Gardens is owned by Devon Klingman and Brendan Hayes Morrison, friends of the family and admirers of Rockledge Gardens. They are joined in the day to day operations by a knowledgeable and friendly staff, several of whom are Florida Certified Horticulture Professionals.

Rockledge Gardens is a full service garden center that offers delivery and installation, as well as a Market for local produce and handmade goods. The Market at Rockledge Gardens is also the home of Garden Party, a Plant-Based Kitchen and Mad Utter Wonderland (local ice cream). Rockledge Gardens also hosts weddings, elopements, and private events.
