Unfortunately, when I first arrived I couldn't browse the front plants because they were being watered, but I still ended up finding a cute little squash plant to take home. The staff was friendly and welcoming, which made the visit even better. They have a wide variety, and I was really impressed with how many different plants and unique options they offer. They also carry houseplants, which is a nice bonus. There's a decent amount of parking, and overall I'd recommend this place if you're looking to liven up your garden. I'll definitely keep them in mind next time I'm on the hunt for a specialty plant.

Some plants are very reasonably priced, depending on what you're shopping for, which makes it easy to pick up a few things without overspending. Parking can be a bit tricky since the lot is small, but you can park across the street or even at the CVS next door and walk over, which is what I usually do. Overall, it's a sweet local nursery with helpful people and a good selection for its size.

Both times the clerk informed me that the restroom was out of order. upon further inquiry I was informed that the bathroom wasn't going to be repaired as it is too expensive to repair and is not profitable. I asked the staff what they do and a salesclerk informed me that they go to the bathroom behind the store. This is a health issue, a public disservice, and shows shows a total lack of concern for loyal customers.

He expertly explained the differences between the gas and electric models of the equipment she was interested in, and found a good deal on one of the products that was on sale. We also got an extra battery for one of the tools as a promotional deal that we weren't aware of. We purchased all of her new toys... er.. uh... "tools," and Adam assisted in registering them for warranty. This is a great hardware store, and they have lots of products. Chances are they have exactly what you need! I will come back to this store again as they can answer all your questions and are very friendly. Oh, yeah... pet the cat that runs the store and guards the knife display!

The layout might be a little tricky for someone completely new to plants, but if you're willing to explore a bit, there are definitely some gems here. Pricing is a bit all over the place--some plants are super affordable (cheaper than big box stores!), while others are surprisingly expensive even when compared to other local plant shops like Serpentine. One standout feature is their $3 plant section, which I haven't seen anywhere else. It's a great spot to find a small, budget-friendly plant. Most of the plants looked very healthy and well cared for, though I did spot a monstera with a leaf that looked like it had been "bitten," as my partner joked. I also noticed they have a plant membership advertised on the back wall, but there wasn't much info about how it works. Overall, worth a visit for plant lovers!

I went one day a few weeks ago and I knew I needed to come back to make a terrarium. I made an…read moreappointment for a Saturday afternoon and it was such a great experience. We got the $25 special and it comes with 2 plants, a vase, dirt and rocks and $5 worth of little items to decorate your terrarium. I went a little overboard and wanted to get some extra items to decorate so I paid a little extra but it was so worth it. The ladies working were so nice and helpful , they walked us through the process effortlessly. I loved to see my terrarium come to life and my mom also enjoyed how hers turned out. I will be coming back since I love the little Knick knacks and small items they have seasonally for example I one time bought a succulent giraffe type pot and haven't seen it again so I'm glad I got it when I first saw it.

The employee treated us like we were trying to steal it. He leaned on it the whole time and got in my personal space when he finally did let me hold it. He treated us like we were going to steal it because we couldn't afford it. Also he didn't believe me when I asked about a military discount. If it hadn't been so close to Christmas and had of had time I would have went somewhere else. I will never go back there unless I just don't have a choice. It made me feel humiliated. Heck I even worked for a Home Depot in clay when I was younger so... nostalgia, but nah no more. I wish I remember the employees name but unfortunately I don't. And the employee who "helped" me couldn't even tell me about it or answer my questions too.

How cool is that? I cannot imagine another town smaller than Atlanta having such a wonderful resource. The resource is not just the variety of liquid seaweeds, and Mycorrhisals, and exotic sprayers available, it is the ready easy knowledge of the kids that work there. I have access to faculty in the Horticulture Department at UF, but they have better things to do than spend all day answering my questions, and they go into theoretical complexities that I do not need. The kids working this lovely hydroponic supply outlet do not have better things to do than spend all day answering my questions. And they are so well educated, knowledgeable, and experienced that they should be teaching and giving seminars. Yes, they are a little expensive relative to online, or even the big box stores like Lowes, but if you want this type of resource to continue in towns this size you will not just by your nutrient solutions there, you will buy your coco coir there as well. Come on people; don't go to Lowes just to save a few bucks on the common stuff, by helping this great business thrive you will help your plants thrive, and when your plants thrive, you thrive. Forgive me for adding this, but when you thrive we all thrive. LETS THRIVE!!!
