GARDEN CENTER • GIFT SHOP • LANDSCAPE DESIGN • FIREWOOD

At Reds, selection and quality are our top priorities. Whether you're looking for seeds, soils, fertilizers, tools, or information to keep your lawn and garden healthy and looking terrific, we have everything that you'll need in the Garden Shop.

We carry only the finest brands of bulk and bagged topsoil and soil amendments, mulches, pesticides, fungicides, fertilizers, and seeds; we do not carry gimmicks or products we know to be ineffective and a waste of money. Among the many quality products you'll find at Reds are Bayer Advanced™ disease and pest control solutions, Scotts® lawn care products, and Miracle-Gro® plant foods. Reds has also formulated our own custom blends of fertilizers and grass seeds for the conditions we face here in northern Illinois and the surrounding areas.

Choosing which fertilizer or grass seed to take home, how much to apply, and when to put it down can be challenging. That's why we're here! Come in or call us with your problems and questions – we can help!

The Garden Shop at Reds features the following soils, custom-blended fertilizers, mulches, and grasses:
