About Walters Gardens, Inc.
Established
1946
We have over 70 years of experience growing
perennials, but it all started with the small flower
business founded by Dena and John Knoll. Dennis
Walters helped set the foundation for our company
when he married their daughter, Harriet Knoll, and
eventually took over the business in 1946. The original
farm was 5 acres; everything was grown from seed, bare
root, and hand dug.
Bare Root Field Production
Through the years it is our Bare Root Production
Devoted Greenhouses which has kept us unique in the industry. Thanks
For us, it’s not just about offering the best plants to our location along Lake Michigan, we enjoy
on the market, but offering the best value as well. sandy, well drained soil that helps our roots grow
That vision starts with dedicated employees, the bigger faster. We’ve been growing high quality
best growers in the business, and a diligent plant bare root product from the very beginning and
health staff. that still rings true today.
Our reputation is only as good as our product.
You can be confident in our product because our
goal is to provide you with nothing but the best of
everything you order.
Today,
2017
That 5-acre farm has grown to 1,500 acres and we’re in the process
of expanding our 500,000 square feet of greenhouses. Walters
Gardens is still family owned and run. We haven’t lost sight of our
(bare) roots or the values that made this company what it is.
Our commitments to high quality plants and genetics have led to
an expansive collection of Walters Gardens introduced varieties
and a close relationship with the Proven Winners® brand.
All our success can be attributed to the employees who have spent
countless years working and contributing to Walters Gardens.

Reference Pages Our Commitment to Plant Health
Walters Gardens, Inc. has made a strong
commitment to provide only the most
healthy, vigorous stock to our customers.
We are working to ensure that all of our VIP
designated crops are virus indexed regularly
for the most common viruses as well as
any crops that show symptoms of a virus.
Plants are tested here at Walters Gardens,
Inc. for the viruses listed below and are
designated with a bow tie symbol.
WGI Plant Health Team
Virus Tests vi • rus – in • dexed adjective

General Perennials 1. A virus-indexed variety is one that has been
• Alfalfa Mosaic Virus (AMV)
tested and deemed free of the viruses it was tested
• Alternanthera/Papaya Mosaic Virus
(AltMV/PapMV) for up to the point of testing.
• Arabis Mosaic Virus (ArMV)
• Cucumber Mosaic Virus (CMV)
How to identify virus-indexed plants (VIP)
• Impatiens Necrotic Spot Virus (INSV)
in this catalog:
• Potyvirus Group (POTY)
• Tobacco Mosaic Virus (TMV) A bow tie symbol is located in the key code of each
• Tobacco Ringspot Virus (TRSV) variety that has been virus-indexed.

Dianthus In the Fields
• 11 General Perennial tests (listed above) Understanding the vital importance of plant
• Carnation Etched Ring Virus (CERV) health, we remain vigilant in preventing prob-
lems in our fields. Before a crop is planted in
• Carnation Latent Virus (CLV)
the field, we make sure our planting stock
• Carnation Mottle Virus (CarMV)
is clean and disease-free. We then diversify
• Carnation Necrotic Fleck Virus (CNFV)
our plantings so that disease prone items are

between cultivars. We also scout weekly for weeds, insect damage, unusu-
• Arabis Mosaic Virus (ArMV)
al variations in growth, trueness to type, and overall plant health.
• Cucumber Mosaic Virus (CMV)
• Hosta Virus X (HVX) In the Greenhouse
• Impatiens Necrotic Spot Virus (INSV) As in the fields, prevention is key when it
comes to pest and disease management in our
• Tobacco Ringspot Virus (TRSV)
greenhouses. We do weekly scouting for any
• Tomato Ringspot Virus (ToRSV)
pest, disease, or nutritional issues and do pre-
• Tomato Spotted Wilt Virus (TSWV)
ventative spraying in regular intervals to pre-
• Tobacco Streak Virus (TSV)
vent the onset of disease. Our goal is to catch
problems at the earliest stage possible and
to target the treatment to the specific crop
before it spreads to other plants. When treatment is needed, we use
beneficial insects or reduced risk pesticides which target specific pests
rather than using broad spectrum chemicals.
