				Martin's Yard &amp; Garden is a family owned and operated lawn and garden maintenance company located in Southwestern Lower Michigan, <A HREF="graphics/zones.jpg">Zone 5</A>. Our mission is to provide timely quality affordable lawn and garden maintenance to the members of our community.
				<BR><BR>
				While we do have sunny borders, grasses, and roses, our interests lie in shade gardening, specifically Pulmonarias, Epimediums, and large specimen Hostas. We are always looking for new plant introduction with the potential to out perform all others of their class.
				<BR><BR>
				Our Web Site and Newsletter, Yard Talk, grew out of our interest in plants and a desire to share this interest with others. The site and monthly newsletter offers information, tips, and links to the best gardening sites in the world. Martin's Yard &amp; Garden's Plant Data Base contains information and pictures of plant varieties that we feel are above average and deserve a place in your garden.
				<BR><BR>
				We are always here to answer your questions, offer you a cup of coffee, and to share a plant or two. 
				<BR><BR>
				Welcome - Wayne Martin and Family
