More About Us

What started as a small landscape business in rickety old barn, has grown into the largest water garden and garden center in Northwest Ohio.

With simple beginnings, two babies on her hip, and a small but growing landscape business under their belts, Richard and Diane Giddens started Oak Park Landscape and Water Garden Center in 1984. The couple began increasing their business by selling shrubs, trees and plants to the retail public.

The business then blossomed by designing water gardens and selling quality water garden supplies. Over the years, the business took on a different look each year by the yearly additions of every-changing, beautiful water garden displays, water garden plants, fish and all types of water garden accessories including statues and fountains.

Today, Oak Park Landscape and Water Garden Center is the leading water garden center in Northwest Ohio as well as being the best overall garden center in the area. Oak Park has forged ahead of the competition by their commitment to quality and by offering their knowledge and personal service to their customers. Oak Park also makes a difference by offering hard-to-find perennials, Oak Openings Region area native plants and beautiful unique garden accents from area designers. The location is also beautifully set in a natural atmosphere where plants and shoppers enjoy the natural treed settings and stress relieving water sounds.
