But I was looking today for something specific. I called three garden centers in the area who are also well-known nurseries. Not one of them knew what I was talking about or was helpful. One phone call here they knew exactly what I was looking for and the options for whether to get it in a bulb or in a plant and they gave me helpful feedback on which one would be better for what I would needed it for. If you're just looking to buy some plants, then you can decide, but if you want quality plants and people who really know about them and can give you good feedback about where they will thrive what they need. This is the place to go.

What's on the menu? A delightful old-school deli serving up scrumptious cold cuts, a variety of cheeses, and fresh salads. And let's not forget the amazing sandwiches that won't break the bank. But wait, there's more. The market features a fish market and a meat market, plus pop-up eateries that make lunchtime and dinnertime a treat. It can get a bit busy, but trust us, the experience is totally worth it. Since discovering this place, I haven't stepped foot in a supermarket for produce.

Ordered: Matcha Bloom Latte (~$8): latte with vanilla, rose,…read moreand lavender; base can be either espresso or matcha Aya's take: Cute cafe with plants & coffee/matcha making this spot the perfect combo for a little R&R. I got the Matcha Bloom Latte which was so soothing on a cold day, the floral taste from the rose and lavender came through in every sip, and the vanilla gave it an added sweetness that pairs well with the earthy matcha. They have plenty of plants, succulents, and flower bouquets to choose from. PlantShed has a few locations in NYC but this is the first one in NJ. Glad I got to check it out!

Plants + coffee + pastries = BLISS…read more PlantShed With Englewood Florist is a lush oasis located on Palisades Ave. It operates as both a cafe and retail shop. As soon as you walk in, you'll notice that every corner of this business is surrounded by beautiful greenery and vibrant flowers. The cafe takes up most of the space at the front of the store. It has a charming aesthetic with marble top tables, black woven chairs, tin tile ceilings, and natural lighting. Indoor seating is limited. There's a few tables for 1-2 people and one communal table. They have free wifi and outlets, so you're able to study or work here. They also have additional seating with wooden picnic tables and umbrellas in their outdoor garden. The menu offers drip coffee, espresso beverages, matcha, tea, and more. They have pastries, snacks, and readily prepared cold foods like sandwiches and salads. I've tried... *Iced Matcha Latte $7 - Disappointed. The drink was very milky and the matcha flavor was so subtle. Did not taste earthy or authentic at all. It tasted like one of those cheap, pre-sweetened powders (even though the barista said they have it unsweetened). *Cold Brew ~$6 - Smooth, not too bitter, and naturally sweet with a splash of milk and sugar! *Freddo Cappuccino $6.50 - If you love a bold and rich espresso flavor... this is for you! It's a Greek-style drink with two shots of espresso, shaken with ice, and then topped off with a layer of frothy milk. The end result is a sweet, creamy, and strong cappuccino. *Cronuts ~$5 - If you're looking to indulge, these are a MUST TRY!!! I tried the apple cinnamon, nutella, and raspberry flavors and they were the perfect decadent treats. The texture is to die for - layers of fried, flaky croissant dough in the shape of a donut. It has a crispy, sugary exterior and a soft, airy interior with sweet fillings. The good stuff doesn't stop there. Towards the back of the store you'll find all of their products - plants, flowers, pots, candles, stationery, room sprays, diffusers, soaps, soil mix, etc. There's a large and unique selection of greenery - orchids, succulents, indoor foliage plants, hanging plants, bouquets, and over 16 types of flowers. The staff (both the baristas and florists) are helpful, friendly, and knowledgeable. The florists are experienced and can help you craft a floral arrangement for a special occasion or look for a specific type of plant for your home. They even offer same day delivery. The plants and flowers are gorgeous, healthy, fresh, and vibrant. I could spend hours here! Whether you're looking to purchase flowers, plants, a strong cup of coffee, or all of the above.... PlantShed has it all!

Peter Karadontes will rip you off at any chance he can get. He will charge you for premium topsoil…read morebut you will get cheap, low-grade soil from his yard instead. He will tell you to get rid of certain plants/trees and pot them for himself and sell them at his nursery! He resells the things he digs up off YOUR property and tells you they should be thrown out. Topsoil is 22 dollars a yard where he picks it up from in Leonia, yet he charges upwards of 50 dollars and makes a killing off of you. He is also addicted to pain killers. Frequently while talking to me, he'll nod off. Additionally, while riding in the car on multiple occasions he has nodded off while driving and almost crashed the car. You can find his "stash" of pain killers in his pocket at all times, which he will pop all day long while drinking nyquil and driving. Do not hire this man to do your work. His workers are both illegal, so any work he does on your property is not going to be insured or legal. Good luck trying to get reimbursed if something gets damaged on your property. Have fun with Karadontes Nurseries! Hire someone else, who is more knowledgeable and who actually remembers to button their pants so their balls don't hang out while talking to you.
