General Info:

Carl Ray Landscape Nursery, Inc. has been doing business in the Kentucky and Southern Indiana area since 1928. Founded by Carl Ray Sr., the company was operated by him until his death in 1983. Originally based in St. Matthews, Carl Ray Nursery has always been known for growing and installing specimen plant material. The company is still family-operated and owned by Mike Ray, the founder’s grandson. In 1988, Carl Ray Nursery moved from its original location to nearby Eastwood. In addition, a second nursery location in Finchville now provides much of the material used in their landscapes. The use of this locally-grown material greatly enhances the success rate of their installed nursery stock. Mike is a 4th generation landscape nurseryman. Mike has a lifetime of focused knowledge that began when he started working in the family-owned business at age 14 as a laborer on landscape and farm crews. For over 20 years, he has maintained regular attendance in short courses and education seminars for green industry. Mike continues to care for 80 acres of large nursery specimen plants. Mike also maintains an active membership in the Louisville Nursery Association, the Kentucky Nursery and Landscape Association, the Southern Nursery Association and the American Nursery and Landscape Association. Mike boasts an impressive list of offices and positions that he has held over the years including: serving on the Board of Directors, VP and President of the Louisville Nursery Association; serving on the Board of Directors, and VP of the Kentucky Nurseryman’s Association; is a Kentucky Certified Nurseryman, and was inducted into the Nurseryman’s Hall of Fame in 2009; just to name a few.

Liquid Fertilization

Applying fertilizer is an essential maintenance practice for achieving and maintaining healthy, mature trees and shrubs. Regular application provides essential nutrients that might not be present in your soil, helping to improve your landscape’s appearance and health.

Resist stresses like drought, insect and disease damage 
Have fewer insects 
Require fewer control applications over time 
Reduce run-off and erosion 
Provide cooling effect in the immediate surroundings
