About Us
Welcome to Norman Keil Nurseries, where dedication to exceptional quality and customer service is at the root of everything we do.
Established in 1996 on Long Island, we are proud to celebrate our 30th anniversary in 2026! We couldn’t have done it without the dedication of our exceptional employees and the trust and commitment of our customers and vendors.
What started as a small family business has since grown to five growing facilities encompassing 975,000 sq ft of state-of-the-art greenhouses and 100 acres of outdoor production, serviced by our team of 20 full time and 200 seasonal employees. Each facility offers different types of greenhouses and outdoor growing space, allowing us to offer a diverse product mix to our customers. This allows us to grow a wide range of crops starting with pansies in the early spring and finishing the year with poinsettias.
We are a wholesale greenhouse servicing large chain stores, supermarkets, garden centers, and the landscape trade. We offer a wide range of products, including annuals, perennials, vegetable & herb plants, garden mums, winter greens, poinsettias and more.
Let us help you make this world more colorful and beautiful!

In Memory of Richie Borella
It is with great sadness that we remember Richie Borella, who dedicated more than 20 years to our company and to the art of growing.
Richie was truly one of a kind. Growing plants wasn’t simply his profession—it was his passion and a way of life. He loved being in the greenhouse and out in the fields, always looking closely at the crops and sharing his knowledge with the next generation of growers he mentored.
Those who knew Richie will remember his unmistakable style, his love of plants, his Cadillacs and old pickup truck, his coffee, and, most of all, his genuine love for the people and work that meant so much to him.
Richie lived his life on his own terms, doing what he loved until the very end. His knowledge, dedication, and passion will remain part of everything we grow and everyone he inspired.
He will be deeply and forever missed.
We love you, Richie.
