The employees there have always been friendly and usually go out of their way to help or to say hi. Prices can be high, but so are most nurseries. Selection is usually good. I do hate seeing invasive plants still being sold at nurseries though.

Good selection of common plants. Prices run a little high on some thing. Good price on topsoil. Nice selection of Corinthian Bells, which is what I went for. In photo, bells from them, not the geraniums.
