Gary Mortimer grew up in Iowa, where his family owned a corn and soybean farm. When Gary was in middle school, his mom decided to move them away from the cold Iowa winters. She and Gary found themselves in Phoenix, Arizona.

​Gary worked for a landscaping and nursery company in Phoenix and found his passion for plants and garden design. After high school, the company sent him to Prescott to oversee a large landscape project. He fell in love with the community and soon moved to Prescott to open his own landscaping company. 

​Gary, a certified nursery specialist, started Mortimer Landscaping Company in 1987. In December of 1995, he opened Mortimer Nursery. In 1996 he met his soon-to-be wife, Sharla. Since 1987 Mortimer Nursery & Landscaping has grown with the Prescott community as Prescott’s premier garden center. 

​We specialize in mature trees, flowering plants, bushes, evergreens, house plants, pavers, hardscape, soil, garden decor, fountains, and more. Mortimer Nursery is our community’s full-service garden center.
