And of course, our classic geranium is a must-have. Choose from over 40 different varieties, whether hanging or upright, with double or single blooms.

This year, too, our extensive selection of plants is complemented by matching, stylish accessories such as planters, window boxes, baskets, and much more. There’s something for every customer.

80 Years of Melle – Three Generations Through the Ages

1946

The Company's History Begins In 1946, Georg Melle laid the foundation
for the company. Immediately after World War II, the focus was on growing fruits and vegetables. Later, a wide variety of ornamental plants were added.

2011

Carolin Melle Suddenly Becomes Company President
At the age of 20, Carolin Melle takes over her late father’s business and continues to run it alongside operations manager Cord Drücker and with the support of the entire Melle team. Traditional values meet innovative ideas, and Melle Nursery evolves into a driving force behind the Gardengirls® brand.

2026

Looking to the Future In 2026, we will celebrate our 80th anniversary with pride and joy. Eighty years of passion and growth. We are also working to optimize our production, logistics, and inventory management. The first new open-field areas have already been implemented. Additional construction projects are currently
in the planning stages.
