    I stopped by here late this afternoon to see what bonsai trees I might be able out check out. I drove up to the house, it's right behind some bushes. You could easily miss it. I was disappointed to find they the signage on the door.

    Entrance

    This is one of those hidden gems where you should go even if you are not interested in bonsai trees. It is a truly authentic and "old world" type feel when you walk inside. Leave all your expectations at the door and you will be pleasantly surprised by the charm of the owners. They offer a wide variety of bonsai trees but offer even more in wisdom. It was a pleasure talking and purchasing a bonsai tree from here.

    We love Bonsai House! The owners were really helpful in training up some bonsai newbies. They have plants from $10 to $1000 so lots of options. Indoor and outdoor plants. Very beautiful ceramic pots. This place is a little authentically messy but it's to be expected when you're growing this many plants!

    Add me to the list of 5 star reviews. If you don't expect a meticulous and manicured setting, you are going to leave with a happy heart and greater respect for this art form and the time and dedication it requires. They have plenty of "finished" specimens that are awaiting your care as well as "unfinished" but equally beautiful plants that are awaiting your personal touch and detail. I left with one of each and a gorgeous platform to display them on. Small business at its best and they truly love what they do. What more can you ask for?

    Awesome collection of Bonsai

She just finished putting together her Yelp friendly photo opp area. She told me how excited she was as she took pictures of her handiwork and sent them quickly in a text. I perused the rows of everything from cacti to ferns, trying to find that perfect gift. If you ever thought for a moment that you don't have the green thumb to sustain life, then an air plant might be right up your alley. The air plant display was aggressive and it allowed a range of sizes from pinky to fist and larger. Not only. Would you find the care instructions on the wall, but there were paper copies to take too. Apparently it's harder than it looks. Plants dotted the windows overlooking the neighboring business and cars that passed. Broad leaves hung boldly overhead and little potted delights sat whimsical on tiny shelves. The whole scene just cried out for a nearby cafe with proximal seating to all this beauty. This is not a bargain shop. It's a little quirky mom and pop with a slim profit margin. Even in paying a bit more, have pride that you are buying local and supporting a small business. Viva The Plant House!

That part didn't go as well as it should have, the weather turned up the heat, and for as much as I watered: still the plants were charred by the string of super sunny, hot days. Left with no choice other than to make another purchase-this time I was smart enough to ask Auburn Oaks to add delivery and install of the plants to my bill. WHAT a FABULOUS choice!! The plants were delivered when I was told to expect them; and Dominic was superb. THANK YOU Auburn Oaks!! See you next time;)

Coming here's a pleasure because their not a huge facility like Bordine's or Lowe's. Parking's tight but doable you just have to be careful when backing out since it's literally on Auburn Road, which is super busy and the speed limit's 50 MPH. They have a great selection of items to choose from, and prices are competitive and fair. What keeps me coming back is the staff. Their super friendly and are extremely knowledgeable. They also have regular sales and keep up with seasonal stuff like pumpkins, Christmas décor and other stuff as well. They also stand behind their products so if you buy a tree or plant, I think they will credit you if it does die. Don't quote me on that, but these guys really do stand behind what their selling. Overall a fabulous little nursery in a world of big box stores, we love coming here for just about anything!

He said "you need to water in circles, you're doing like you're jacking off!" I'm putting the actual words he used because I'm sure kids won't be reading these reviews. I was appalled that he would say this out loud in front of customers. Not to mention the demeaning tone he used towards the worker. I put my flowers down that I had picked out and left. I didn't feel like having a confrontation with him. I doubt this will make a difference in his attitude but I won't be shopping there again. Plenty of other places to spend my money at

And don't think you got away with me not knowing you still cheated me even though you gave me some money back. you can keep it because your behavior says you obviously need it more than me. May GOD give you your reward. What you put out is definitely what you get back.

What's THAT place?! It was a big white colonial style building and it was pretty. What else would a good friend do? She turned the car around. She said she would probably pay $5 more by going here, but she wanted me to see it. We pulled into the massive parking lot and drove to the corner where a little bird was taking a bath in a puddle. We got out and the bird was completely unphased. This was his safe place. A floral mecca if you will. We walked past statues and fountains to reach the entrance. There were large carts, baby carts, and wheelchairs available at the entrance. I wandered in and encountered sticker shock. Amy wasn't kidding. Everything was about double what you would find everywhere else. There were quite a few half off sales though, bringing it down to a normal price. Here's the thing though- it's like the difference between a Gucci watch and a Timex. Both are going to do the job, but the Gucci is just more elegant. These plants were lush. They were diverse too. And this place was mammoth. I did not make it through the entire store. It vascillated between indoors and outdoors and stretched back to parts unknown, at least by me. Luckily I found a place to sit so I didn't need to grab a wheelchair. A bunch of patio tables and benches were stationed at the front next to the firewood. I enjoyed the breeze while Amy stood in line. She was right. She paid more. The young guy who rang her up asked if she would like a bag for each one. We missed over that since the bags were smaller than the tomato cages. She said no. We jaunted to the car, loaded up the trunk and much to our dismay our little bathing bird was gone.

But they really do have something for everyone, from plants to sauces to furniture- it's an amazing store. Staff is very friendly and helpful.

My husband and i went here to "just look around" and left with $180 worth of plants and other things. We loved it and can't wait to go back.
