Who We Are

Wendy and Alan Wubbels are long-time residents of Williamsburg in York County, Virginia. Alan got his undergraduate degree in botany from Franklin & Marshall College in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, while Wendy earned her degree in English at William & Mary. Both their working careers took them in different directions; Alan in retail and marketing and Wendy as a professional artist. For the last 19 years, they've collaborated on a shared passion -- plants!

Our History

Forest Lane Botanicals took root in 2003 as a return (for Alan) to a first love. With their four children launched and raising families of their own, Wendy and Alan began offering a limited selection of field grown daylilies and hostas. Today, the business has grown to offer a full range of perennials (both native and cultivated), shrubs and small trees.
We grow as much of our plant material as possible and trial in our gardens for deer-resistance, bloom and vigor.  Onsite to offer ideas and advice, we look forward to reconnecting with our old gardening friends while greeting many new ones!
