Scents like prosecco rose, blackberry absinthe, linden moss, crane flower,saijo persimmon, coconut milk, wood fire, yashioka gardenia, vervaine olive leaf.. I could go on and on. These are smells that are new to the senses. They make you swoon...really. I've watched other customers and they have the same reaction. Even some of the candle containers are works on art! Available in soy candles, diffusers, lotions and sprays. In addition wonderful homemade baby clothes and gifts, birthday party supplies (the kind you won't find anywhere else-gold leaf birthday candles and small circus statue holders), garden and kitchen gifts and numerous vintage items. Cant believe it took me two years to find this shop. Having raised 4 children I was never into candles or diffusers but now I'm hooked - can't leave without one, and no wonder..I no more get them home and one of my daughters has to have it. Treat yourself and your senses and visit Astoria! P.S. I'm not in any way affiliated with the owner (in fact although she is wonderful..I've forgotten her name. Sorry :)) just wanted to state this as I don't like it when friends of a new business review on yelp...not always honest.

I never like to ask a shop to use theirs because I know most places don't usually like to have the public use it. I am sensitive to this however in an urgent situation and I am in a foot boot due to an ankle injury I decided to ask hoping they would make an exception. The older lady saw that I was in a boot and urgently had to go to the restroom but said to use the ones across the street. Hard to walk in a boot, I made it over there to find they were locked. I had to walk much further to finally find somewhere that I could go to the bathroom. I went back to meet my family buying some items from the shop. I let the lady know the bathrooms she recommended were locked and she did not seem to care at all. Just wow, where is the compassion for a fellow person and costumer. I decided to not buy my items and will now be returning here. Purchase from places that have human kindness! Not here!

We stopped on our way home and never expected to find a place this special…read more We stopped at Simply Succulent on our way home from our weekend trip to the Fort Bragg area. We thought we'd look around for a little while and then continue home to Chico. Instead, this ended up being the best part of our entire weekend. Rella Gadulka has owned and operated Simply Succulent since 1995, 31 years, and after spending time with her I completely understand why. You can't Google 31 years of hands-on experience and knowledge. Chico has a few big box stores where I can buy succulents, but they are basically all the same. Same plants, same varieties and nothing really different. Walking into Simply Succulent was a completely different experience. There were plants I had never seen before everywhere I looked. What impressed me even more was the way Rella helped me choose what to buy. When she found out I lived in Chico and knew how hot our summers get, she showed me what would survive and what wouldn't. She actually talked me out of buying some plants I wanted because she knew they wouldn't do well in our heat. I quickly figured out that Rella is very protective of her plants, and I loved that about her. She grows these plants herself and actually cares what happens to them when they leave with you. She isn't just trying to make a sale. She also knew I wanted to propagate, so she started showing me plants that already had lots of little "chicks" or babies growing around them. She showed me which ones I could take home, separate and eventually turn into dozens of plants. Instead of trying to sell me more plants, she was basically teaching me how to make more myself. I also loved that she had cuttings from so many of her plants. If you can't afford the larger established plant, you can buy a cutting and grow your own. It didn't matter to Rella if you were spending a few dollars on a cutting or several hundred dollars. She still took the time to help you. She even gave me her email and told me I could contact her anytime if I had questions once I got home. Who does that anymore? My love for succulents started 8 years ago after my daughter died. I wanted to keep fresh flowers at her cemetery site, but I couldn't afford to replace them every week. One day I noticed another person visiting their loved one had succulents around their site. I asked them about the plants because at the time I didn't even know what a succulent was. It didn't take me long before I had surrounded my daughter's site with succulents too. What started because I couldn't afford fresh flowers turned into one of the most healing things I could have ever done. I learned how to grow and propagate them and eventually started sharing them with other people who had lost someone they loved. Rella had no idea about any of this while she was helping me. She had no idea how much it meant when she was showing me plants covered in babies that I could turn into dozens more. I honestly could have stayed there all day listening to her and looking at plants. Unfortunately our 3-year-old grandson was getting fussy and apparently he didn't share Grandma's enthusiasm about spending the rest of the day at a succulent nursery. Then we went to pay. We had picked out several hundred dollars worth of succulents and that's when I saw the sign saying no cards, cash or checks only. My heart sank. I don't carry a checkbook anymore and didn't have that much cash with me. I honestly felt sick thinking we were going to have to leave all these plants behind. Rella didn't even bat an eye. She told us to take the plants home and send her a check Monday. I seriously couldn't believe what I was hearing. We were complete strangers. We had never been there before. We don't even live close. We live hours away in Chico and this woman was willing to let us drive away with several hundred dollars worth of her plants without paying her anything that day. Who the hell does that anymore? Rella does. She told us that this world needs to be more trusting. That literally gave me chills. What got me even more was when she told us that she has trusted other people to send her payment and some of them never did. Yet she still chooses to trust people and believe they will do the right thing. After 31 years in business, she hasn't let the people who took advantage of her change who she is. I just hope nobody else ever takes advantage of her kindness. Eight years ago a stranger at a cemetery introduced me to succulents during one of the hardest times of my life. Eight years later, another stranger trusted me enough to send me home with several hundred dollars worth of those same plants just because she believed we would keep our word. There are still some pretty damn good people in this world. By the time we left, Rella didn't feel like just the owner of a nursery we happened to stop at on our way home. She felt like someone we had somehow added to our family.
