Hillenmeyer Landscape Services was founded in 1841 in Lexington, Kentucky. We've shared our most significant milestones below to help you understand our story and what makes Hillenmeyer the company it is today. Yes, it's long, but we proudly have 175+ years to cover! In 1841, Francis Xavier Hillenmeyer, a nurseryman from France, had settled in Lexington, Ky and orders a shipment of small fruits and fruit trees from France, marking the beginning of Hillenmeyer Nurseries as we know it today.
In 1846, Francis buys his first tract of land and uses the 20 acres for test orchards, vineyards and nursery plants, with his business centered around growing fruit. He maintains a vineyard and peach orchard, and his nursery stock includes newly popular landscaping elements like trees, vines and shrubs. Spraying for insects and fungus is an emerging practice.
In 1872, Hector begins keeping detailed weather records, which are the only such records being kept in Lexington in the late 1800s. In 1910, Hector's sons, Louis and Walter Hillenmeyer, become the third-generation owners.
