One of the best plant shops in the area. Sonya was so helpful, knowledgeable, and very personable. She helped me find everything I was looking for-and more!! Not only are the pots and plants gorgeous, but the costumer service is unbeatable! Definitely stop by this beautiful garden, you will not be disappointed.

I arrived 30 minutes before closing and they still greeted and welcomed us to look around. Super friendly staff and very attentive to what you're looking for. They have a lovely variety and garden to look at. The fish pond was also a nice touch and they had very gorgeous fish. All in all a great experience!

What a beautiful location! I'm sure they're much better at the beginning of the season. While they had a bunch of annuals still in stock there were not many perennials. They have a pretty good selection of shrubs as well and prices seem competitive.

This is the best hidden gem! It may not be hidden, but I just found it! They have the most beautiful selection of plants, trees, shrubs and flowers. They have plants I have never heard of, and plants I have been searching for months! They host events for the public. They offer live music and even llamas!! Theres a train track that runs thru the middle and a big coy pond with fountains. Even if you dont want any plants, you should go for the scenery itself. Its literally like being in the Secret Garden. The staff is beyond wonderful. They are super helpful and so nice! Theres a gift

I shopped here twice but will never do so again. 2 of the 4 indoor plants I purchased died within a couple weeks. Both of those plants were in bad shape when I bought them unbeknownst to me. I asked about the shape of 1 in store but was told if was normal. I even tried to get an exchange for 1 the day after purchasing because I noticed a fungus but the owner refused. I try to support small businesses which is why I went back but this time I knew to really inspect the plants I wanted but when I pointed out the issues with the stock the clerk just kept making excuses. I gladly took my business elsewhere
