Monrovia Releases Its 2027 Garden Design Trends Report

Monrovia, the plant grower whose name appears on nursery tags at garden centers nationwide, published a report on garden design trends for 2027, according to a story from Perishable News that surfaced on Google News on Oct. 7, 2026. The report lands at the start of fall, the season when many home gardeners and landscapers start planning next year's beds. Read the original Perishable News report.
What Did Monrovia Say About 2027 Gardens?
The headline from Perishable News confirms Monrovia presented its garden design trend forecast for 2027. The summary available to this desk did not include the specific plant varieties, color palettes, or layout styles the company named. Readers who want the complete list — the part that actually tells a homeowner what to plant — should go to the original Perishable News story linked above, since that is where the detailed trend breakdown lives.
Why Does Fall Matter For Next Year's Garden?
A trends report for 2027 landing in the fall of 2026 lines up with how home gardening actually works. Fall is bulb season. In Fannin County, the local Master Gardeners program announced a Southern bulb gardening program on Sept. 16, 2026, timed to the same fall planting window, according to Green Grace Land's report on the program. Gardeners who put bulbs in the ground this fall are effectively designing what their yard looks like next spring — the same window Monrovia's 2027 trend report is aimed at.
Timeline: From Fall Bulb Planting To 2027 Garden Design
- Sept. 16, 2026 — Fannin County's Master Gardeners program publicizes its Southern bulb gardening program, encouraging fall planting ahead of next year's blooms, per Green Grace Land.
- Oct. 7, 2026 — Perishable News' report on Monrovia's 2027 garden design trends appears on Google News, giving growers and designers an early read on next year's look.
- Ahead of spring 2027 — Garden centers that carry Monrovia stock would be expected to place orders tied to any confirmed spring inventory, though no retailer commitments were included in the source material reviewed for this story.
The report works as a planning guide, not a mandate. Nothing in the ground changes this week.
What Changes For Home Gardeners Monday Morning?
Nothing mandatory. No law, ordinance, or retailer requirement is tied to a trends report. What it does is give landscape designers, nursery buyers, and home gardeners drafting 2027 plans an early signal of what Monrovia expects to be popular. Gardeners already buying bulbs or perennials this fall, including those following programs like the one in Fannin County, are the ones most likely to see the trend list influence what is on shelves by next spring.

Gardeners looking for the specific plant names and color schemes in Monrovia's 2027 forecast should check the original Perishable News link above directly, since that level of detail wasn't part of the summary reviewed for this report.
Who Does Monrovia's Forecast Reach?
Monrovia supplies plants to garden centers across the country, and its name on a nursery tag is often the only brand information a shopper sees before buying a shrub or perennial, according to the original Perishable News report cited above. That reach is why a design trends report from the company carries weight beyond its own catalog — independent garden centers, landscape architects, and home gardeners all use Monrovia's forecasts as a reference point when deciding what to stock or plant for the coming year.
Where Can Readers Find The Full List?
The summary reviewed for this report did not break out specific plant names, colors, or design styles tied to 2027. Anyone who wants that detail — the practical part that tells a gardener what to actually buy this fall or next spring — needs to read the full Perishable News story directly, since no secondary outlet coverage of the list's contents was available at publication time.
