Core Tip	Nocardiosis is an infection most often seen in immunocompromised individuals. In particular, primary cutaneous disease rarely occurs in normal hosts. We present a case series of patients that developed this infection after gardening. As nocardial infections are frequently mistaken for routine pyogenic processes and as routine cultures are rarely kept long enough to show growth, this condition should be considered in patients with such a history and cultures should be incubated for several weeks.
