This nursery is one of my favorite places to shop. There is a decent variety of plants for the size of the place. There is a house that serves as a gift shop, and the deck and yard all around the house has plants. There are helpful signs marking perennials and annuals. Staff are very knowledgeable, and friendly too. I was planting a winter window box for a friend and one of the employees went so far as to lay out plants on the ground in the configuration I would need for the planter, suggesting things that would work for the amount of light and that were hardy. We found the perfect balance of

This place has stuff the big box stores don't. They are very comparable with prices. They also give you a percentage off after a certain amount of visits. The lady that assisted me was super nice. I love coming back.

Well have been here many times in the past and spent quite a bit of money on plants and gift certificates I wasn't aware they closed so early but when they make a point to tell me right at 5:30 that they close at 5:30 then I will now go elsewhere. There were a few different things I was considering I love plants but I felt like they were more focused on closing. I used to like what they have but will find it other places.
