Tagawa Gardens opened its door to the community  29 years ago. However, the greenhouses at 7711 S. Parker Rd. already had a long  history in the local area. Built in the early 1960's, throughout the years the  greenhouse supplied the local area with tomatoes, fresh cut carnations and  long-stem roses. The Tagawa family purchased these greenhouses in 1976 and quietly  continued to grow beautiful roses. The 1982 Christmas Blizzard crushed many of  the greenhouses and the family decided to take the opportunity to change the  course of the greenhouse's history. When the doors re-opened, Tagawa Gardens  was introduced to the local community.

In 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011 and 2012, Tagawa Gardens  was named "Best   Garden Center"  by The Denver A-List. In the April 2009 issue, Sunset  Magazine named Tagawa Gardens "The Best Place to Buy Plants" in Denver.  In 2006 & 2007, Tagawa Gardens was named "Top Garden Center" by The Rocky Mountain News
