The Corliss Story
Corliss is part of the community and we are fully involved in supporting local causes and charitable organizations and provide generous funding as well as plants and other materials. Don't hesitate to contact us if you are seeking donations. We are truly grateful to all of our patrons and supporters and humbly proclaim we couldn't do it without you. We are proud of our staff and recognize their shared role in our success and look forward to another 100 years of Corliss Brothers in the local area. Sorry, we are not a mail order company and cannot ship our products. All items must be selected in person at our facility with the exception of gifts (please call for details). Local delivery is available for a fee.
We are a local, full service family owned retail garden center and nursery located in historic Ipswich, MA at 31 Essex Road (Rt 133). The current families have owned the business since 1983 when the property was purchased from 'Kip' Corliss. We specialize in offering the widest assortment of plants in top conditon. Choose from all the latest flowering plants and shrubs in addition to mature trees and evergreens for instant appeal, no need to wait years for things to grow! Contact us if looking for something not in our catalog as we have many rare cultivars for the plant enthusiast which don't make it to the printed catalog. Our friendly staff is here to provide all the help you need to find the solution to any situation. Most members of our team have been here for 10 years or more and even some their entire career. We can coach you through the whole process of selecting and planting and proper maintenance thereafter. You get the right plant, for the right spot, the very first time. We recognize your time is precious and we won't waste it by offering plants which we know cannot work for you. For seasonal decorating make Corliss your first choice. We have a tremendous selection of Christmas trees and all the holiday trimmings. Throughout the winter season the store remains open selling a wide selection of wild bird feeders and seed, ice-melt, wood pellets and more.
