Hey, gardeners — join us for an informative seminar with our expert horticulturalist, Sean. He’ll be covering all of the things you should and shouldn’t be doing with your gardens and containers during the beginning of the summer growing season.

A great selection of plants that look well cared for. Knowledgeable and friendly staff. Joy was extremely helpful with finding out if our plant choices were poisonous to animals.

I drove past this place on numerous occasions after they were already closed but I told myself I had to see what kind of houseplants they have. I’m so happy I finally got to go inside. The staff was very helpful and pleasant. It’s very clean and they have the largest variety of rare houseplants. I would give them ten stars if I could. Please go and support them, it’ll be worth turning into that parking lot. You won’t want to leave.
