Eddi's Wholesale Garden Supplies Ltd. is a growing dynamic distributor of hard goods for indoor and outdoor gardening needs. We ship throughout western Canada serving over 1000 wholesale clients. We manufacture soils, soil amendments, and grass seeds. We direct import products from around the world. We distribute several national name brands of merchandise. Eddi's Wholesale Garden Supplies was founded in 1968 by Ed and Diane Les, working from their home with one van and four product lines. Thanks to our customers' loyalty we have achieved enviable success and growth. In 2010, we opened our streamlined, 160,000 square foot distribution centre to better service all our western Canadian customers. Ed and Diane, whose names form the Eddi (Eddi) in our company name continue to be active in the business as President and Vice President.
We are first and foremost a display and hybridizing garden, with our hybridizing efforts taking a lot of our time (next to weeding of course!). We have been honored over the years with several awards, starting with the Fraser Valley Real Estate Board’s award for Best Large Garden in the early 90s. We became the first national display garden recognized for daylilies in Canada by the American Hemerocallis Society, started the first Canadian daylily club in 1991 and I became the first certified Canadian judge for daylilies by the AHS. To date, we have over 60 hybrids of our own creation - plants borne right here in Langley that are now making their way around the world.
We hope you can come by and visit us and other attractions in the area. A garden is never finished as long as you have imagination, so come back often! less...
