51 million annuals.

11 million perennials.

7 million mums.

And 1.5 million gallons of water. Every day.

In a new series, How It’s Made introduces you to a variety of vendors and products in a way you’ve never seen before, taking you behind the scenes to see how things are made – from start to finish.

The first part of Lowe’s series takes you to Metrolina Greenhouses, the largest single-site heated greenhouse in the United States. 

From seed to shelf – see the whole process of how millions of plants are produced and delivered to Lowe’s Garden Centers.
