Oglesby is well known in the plant industry as a leader in the development and marketing of new plant varieties. We firmly believe that our industry needs a constant infusion of new and superior plants to help growers maintain profit margins and to keep the buying public interested in our products.

To ensure the continuous flow of new varieties, we have committed significant resources to our new product development department where we manage an extensive breeding program. Every year we literally grow thousands of seedlings of numerous genera to find that one special and hopefully superior plant. Our breeders are not only looking to improve the aesthetic quality of the plant but to improve disease and insect resistance that benefits the grower and consumer alike.
