I learned about it from a small air plant seller - Airplantation (actually it's the seller's home, not far from here) in 2023 - yes, all my purchase from Airplantation are doing well. This nursery suffered from the hurricane and are still recovering from its effects. The office is at the end of the road - everyone should go there to check in first. The young lady in the office said that this was a hobby her stepfather had started around 50 years ago. There is a long snake skin pinned on the wall, near the ceiling, that he brought back from Peru. I told her about snake banquets each autumn in Hong Kong, which I miss very much. They also sell beautiful driftwoods. Oh, the dusty road is unavoidable.

Grab a golf cart and drive around to check out the options. Sometimes it is difficult to find someone in the area to answer questions without having to load a plant and bring it to the front desk for assistance. Best idea if you are looking for serious landscape, call and book some time with an employee and have them ride around to explain options to you. They allowed me to exchange a plant for something else when I discovered it would be too large for my garden. Now I have a beautiful jade plant instead, thanks!

Earthbox is a garden center in Ellenton, Fl. off US-301 at 36th Street. The parking area is small…read morebut enough space for us during the week. I'm not sure how it would be on a weekend. Earthbox was developed by commercial farmers to make it easy for home gardeners. It is a type of growing system with self-watering containers that have a water reservoir built in that is capable of irrigating the plants for several days. The system says it doubles the yield, reduces water usage by 60% and uses 28% less fertilizer. I like that the box itself is made of recycled plastic and can be used year after year! The people working there are helpful and knowledgeable. I didn't know the tomatoes they had so someone helped me pick two. I also picked strawberry and broccoli plugs (already started small plant). They have classes on Wednesday and Saturday at 10am to explain the system and answer questions. I will definitely be back and recommend Earthbox Garden. I don't use the Earthbox system though will be looking into it. And this is the place to find out about it!

The lady who helped us never asked:, "have you been here before? ", "Are you an experienced grower?" "What brings you in today?" Nothing. Just came up and started pointing out how they do things now, which is different than the way I was allowed to do things there, previously. she didn't say I'm new; this is the way we do it now." She started explaining planting techniques I've literally known since I'm 4 yo. Also, first time anyone ever pushed soil purchase there. (Of course I was never asked if I was unhappy with my soil or whether I have problem growing.) It felt condescending and wasted my time. I was the only customer there. New Management?
