This is by far the best garden center I have been to in Colorado. I can't say that enough. Avalon is amazing!! She is super knowledgeable and loves to teach and talk about plants. She is always super helpful with helping me save, analyze, and purchase new houseplants. We always have a wonderful time discussing a variety of topics pertaining to plants. I look forward to going to her with new plant projects and/or checking with her to make sure my current plant projects are successful. The staff that I have encountered at this garden center are very friendly, sincere, and overjoyed to help out with

Meh
I had never been but was excited to go. Definitely some neat plants in there. Just bummed with my experience. The very common houseplant I wanted was priced at around $50, I drove to King Soopers and purchased one of the same size at $13
Dont come here for houseplants unless youre very stupid with your money.

Friendly and knowledgeable employees. A+ Highly recommend to anyone looking for a nursery.
Needed to find a good local nursery, liked the idea of supporting local business vs Lowes. Had a great experience at Hilltop. We knew generally what we were looking for, how much sun different parts of my yard get, etc. Was offered to be helped after a couple minutes of browsing. The woman who helped up was fantastic, taking in all the details of what we were looking for and helping stir us towards some choice plants. The whole store was on sale and prices were very good. 4in starers were 4 for $15. Larger

I love the flowers here. Yes they are pricey but most nurserys are. Catch them when they have a sale!! The girls who work here are very helpful but a bit condescending if you dont know a lot, but maybe I would be too if I had to deal with people all day?? But overall its got a good vibe.

Love this place, the staff are always kind and helpful no matter who is working or how busy they are. I wish I knew names but there is one particular woman who was wonderful when helping me find plants that are non toxic to cats.. they always seem to go the extra mile!

I love this cute little plant shop! Ive found some gorgeous variegated houseplants there and am consistently pleased with their selection. They are more affordable than some of the other larger local garden centers and I always leave with at least one plant Im super excited about. My only complaint is they close so early on weekdays, but since I work a few blocks away that probably saves me money since I cant go as often ;)
