About Lyman Estate Greenhouses, Historic New England
Lyman Estate Greenhouses, Historic New England is a greenhouse in Waltham, Massachusetts. It is listed at 185 Lyman St, Waltham, MA 02452, which places it among the local businesses of Waltham that residents and visitors turn to when they need this kind of service close by.
In Waltham, garden centers are busiest on spring weekends, when new stock arrives and popular plants sell out; weekday mornings are calmer and staff have more time to answer questions. Ask which plants are hardy for your USDA zone in Massachusetts, whether trees and shrubs carry a replacement guarantee (one year is common), and whether the nursery delivers and plants large items. Fall is the best planting season for many trees and perennials, and end-of-season sales are common. Many nurseries close or shorten hours in winter, so check the listing for current hours and Google rating before you go.
Hours are published for 5 days a week. On most of those days it is open 9:30 amβ4 pm. Note that it does not open on Monday, Tuesday. Hours in the United States do change around federal holidays and long weekends, so a quick call before a special trip is sensible. The listed phone number is (617) 994-5913. Many businesses also reply to text messages on the same number if it is a cell phone. Its website is historicnewengland.org, where you may find menus, price lists or booking options.
On Google it holds a rating of 4.6 out of 5 from 60 reviews, which is a strong result for a greenhouse in Waltham and suggests consistent service.
Waltham is in Massachusetts, in the Northeast, where four distinct seasons shape local life: hot humid summers, snowy winters that can close businesses for a day, and a dense pattern of towns where walking, transit and street parking all matter. US addresses list the street number and name, then the city, state abbreviation and ZIP code, and Waltham follows the same pattern; a suite or apartment number such as Ste 200 refers to a unit inside the building. The map link on this page shows the exact spot.

Very small greenhouses. I would only allot about an hour at most. No public bathrooms. Small shop. No interaction with anyone at the greenhouses though there were several people working at the time.

Amy in the greenhouse was SUCH a delight! We had many questions about our purchased/personal plants and their care. She was so helpful and patient. We did not realize how much of a resource this greenhouse is. I would definitely recommend visiting this historic site and buying locally grown plants.

If you love plants, run, don't walk to the Lyman Estate Greenhouse! What an amazing little place! They had sooo many things to see in the exhibition portion and even more to see in the for sale portion! They had the most unique variety of houseplants I have seen in a very long time! As someone with over 600 houseplants, it is very difficult to find a place that has something extraordinary or unique anymore, but this place had it. The staff were super mega knowledgeable too! We spent quite a while speaking with her. I was today years old when I learned that citrus trees had thorns! I also saw a hoya bloom for the 1st time in my life. I had only ever seen that in photos before today! The plant prices were extremely reasonable. The woman also said they do plant sales most of the summer; orchids, herbs, veggies, you name it! Definitely highly recommend a trip here. You will not be disappointed!

The estate was well maintained and quite the historic beauty. The greenhouses were authentic and gorgeous. I even purchased a beautiful variegated philodendron brasil.

When Spring is close but still feels distant β in February and March β the great variety of plants, lots of them exotic & lots in bloom, really revives the spirit. And you can bring some home β a selection is for sale. And, of course, the greenhouses are open not just in these times.
