Retail nurseries sell their plants to the general public, whereas wholesale nurseries sell only to businesses such as other nurseries and to commercial gardeners, and private nurseries, etc. In nurseries, plants are grown in open fields, container fields, greenhouses, etc. Decorative trees, shrubs, and herbaceous perennials are usually grown in open fields. Shrubs and herbaceous plants are usually grown in container fields. These have proper ventilation, sunlight, etc. Nurseries sometimes supply plants for gardens, agriculture, forestry, and conservation biology.
