Mast Young Plants

Mast Young Plants Living Catalog 2026

For over 20 years, Mast Young Plants has proudly opened its trial garden to growers, customers, and broker partners. Our goal is to provide an engaging, informative experience that showcases both proven performers and exciting new varieties for the upcoming 2026 growing season.

Visitors to our trial garden will find their favorite plant series displayed side by side with competitor lines, making it easy to compare performance and make confident selections. Our layout is compact and efficient intentionally so visitors can easily walk the aisles and evaluate many different options.

We invite you to explore our wide variety of in-ground trials, container trials, and more than 500 unique combination planters. Looking for fresh inspiration? Use our trials to spark new ideas for your own combos! We love experimenting and seeing how different varieties “play” together.

Feature Trials

In this year’s “you asked, we trial” feature trial, we are growing out a series of common garden plants and comparing a control (no cut back & no Plant Growth Regulators - PGR), a cut back plant, and then up to 2 different PGR rates. This trial will provide valuable insights into how cutting back your full-sized plants and PGR can impact overall beauty of your summer planters.

Additional Garden Features

We’re adding a landscaped display area featuring all the succulents that we grow to this year’s trial garden alongside the returning annual internal combination trial. Every Mast Young Plants team member submits a design for a custom planter and the staff votes on the winning combo, making for a fun and creative way for our entire team to get involved.

We look forward to hosting you at our 2026 Living Catalog Trial Garden!
