I used to love shopping here, lots of selection but the last few times I have been in the staff have been rude and condescending. I don't think I'll be going back because it ruins an otherwise beautiful shopping experience. read more

This massive greenhouse and nursery is tucked away on a large gated acreage along the Alaska highway. I am blissfully unaware of what transpires here during spring and summer. The idea of yard beautification in a region that is blanketed in snow six months of the year always seemed a little bizarre. I hold in high esteem the talented and motivated folks who put in long hours during our limited growing season to produce beautifully manicured lawns and flower gardens. Many of whom shop here, but I've found the time put to better use playing ball, barbecuing and boating. It's the months before Christmas when the activity at the gardens really gets exciting. I've always liked the idea of real fir and spruce Xmas trees. I love the scent of the needles. The nursery stocks trees up to twelve feet in height. It's unfortunate you can't buy any with the roots intact as any of them would make a fine addition to my yard. The inside of the facility is just as amazing. There are no fewer than eight fully decorated trees on display. You can even place a ballot for your favorite. As well as shelves overflowing with rustic decorations and figurines, live and artificial Christmas foliage, wreaths and plants. The wide eyed wonder of the kids that visit here is well worth the trip. Most of the seasonal stock unsold after the holiday is massively discounted. The gardens are always a great place to visit no matter what season you favor. read more
