About Our Nursery

Durkin’s Nursery is a B&B Nursery in the foothills of the Cascades 20 minutes Southeast of Portland. We are a smaller family owned business that grows many varieties of primarily grafted conifers, some beech and a few maples. We tend to plant in smaller quantities usually 50 to 250, occasionally 500 of a particular tree. Mike and Laurie Durkin have owned the nursery for 20+ year’s, keeping staffing low along with our prices. We enjoy dealing with nursery people at all levels, but get particular enjoyment from dealing with businesses similar to ours, smaller, more personal operations. We provide nursery stock to garden centers & re-wholesalers in the Pacific Northwest and throughout the U.S.

We graft most of our own product, keeping a quality process. We use rootstock that has been in it’s container for at least a year. Once established, the grafted seedling is transplanted into a 1 gallon container helping to establish a larger but compact root system before transplanting into the field.

Some of Our Standouts

Here are a few pictures that we hope you will enjoy.

Sylv.-Nana-Strobus-Nana
Sylv.-Nana-Strobus-Nana 

Pinus strobus 'Nana', a dwarf cultivar of the Eastern white pine (Pinus strobus). It is a slow-growing, evergreen conifer with a compact, asymmetrical, flat-topped, and dome-shaped habit. This cultivar is known for its soft, blue-green needles and its suitability for borders, small landscapes, or as a centerpiece in smaller gardens.

Weeping-larch
Weeping-larch

A weeping larch, often specifically referring to the Larix decidua 'Pendula', is a cultivar of the European larch known for its graceful, drooping branches. It's a deciduous conifer, meaning its needle-like leaves turn gold in the fall before dropping. These trees are relatively cold-hardy and can be pruned to control their size and shape.

Skylands
Skylands

The Skylands oriental spruce (Picea orientalis 'Skylands') is a popular cultivar of the Oriental spruce known for its striking golden-yellow new growth that persists throughout the year. This cultivar, introduced by Skylands Botanical Garden, typically reaches 10 to 35 feet in height. It's a visually appealing tree, especially when the bright yellow needles contrast with the red pollen-bearing cones in the spring.
