I was looking for a healthy snake plant (sansevieria) for my apartment which gets very little…read moresunlight. We have a couple in our flat from other local places; these low maintenance baddies can tolerate pretty much anything that happens (... or doesn't happen) to them, they purify the air, and supposedly help with sleep. Skillins to the rescue! I didn't realize HOW enormous their indoor space is; be ready to be surprised too! PRO TIP: This would be a lovely place to bring a coffee and spend an hour wandering around in the middle of winter. It's so warm and bright in here! An employee watering some plants asked me if I needed help, then walked me over to their Low Light Plant section. There were half a dozen or so smaller snake plants available, several of them showing new growth already! They were $10; I feel like that's exactly what I was expecting/hoping to pay. When I was cashing out, the person in front of me was buying a bouquet of flowers. The employee at the register softly inquired if they were for any special occasion. Come to find out they were a surprise for his wife "just because"; the employee then wrapped them up in such a pretty, thoughtful way (and I don't think he was charged for it).

The prices are higher than a big box store but comparable to other local nurseries. And the staff has always been helpful and friendly when I have questions.

As a matter of fact, they never spoke to us once. But they surely spoke to each other. Hard to spend money in a place with such terrible customer service and in a place where you are not welcomed. Selection wasn't great for perennials. Some nice fruit tree selections. Not sure on the value of the plants, flowers, and trees they have because I will never spend my money at this establishment for how my husband and I were treated today. Unwelcomed. Subpar. Unacknowledged. No thanks.
