Troll Gardens® is a registered trademark of Papa Geno’s Herb Farm/Prairie Home Perennials. This concept been in the works for a number of years, and these tiny trees, plants and gardens are the result much work on the part of several people. This is “small space gardening” taken about as far as one can take it. We have identified almost 100 species/varieties of dwarf and miniature trees and shrubs and over 100 tiny perennials and grasses that are being used to create our Troll Gardens®.

We chose Troll Gardens® as the name, but it could as well have been Faerie Gardens or Gnome Gardens or Elf Gardens. My wife Dorrie even drafted me to create a small garden for her angel collection.

Trees that never get more than 12” tall, 6” shrubs, flowering perennials 3” tall, miniature roses, and more. These are not bonsais, although some of the trees could be used as such. These are totally natural plants and trees that you don’t have to spend a lot of time fussing over. They are not “house plants” in the ordinary sense of the word, although they can be brought indoors for limited periods of time to grace a dining table. Ideally they will spend most of the year outside in a spot sheltered from drying winds and sub zero temperatures.
