This family-owned business really cares about their customers. They offer a customer loyalty punch card each year. Don't let the small store front fool you... They offer a large variety of plants from sun to shade, annuals to perennials, as well as veggies and herbs. Remember when stores offered to carry purchases to your car? They still do! Just be sure to bring cash or check as they do not accept credit/debit cards. I cannot say enough about their quality plants and customer service. FYI, if you hesitate to shop there because of their location on Westnedge, don't worry; they have an entry/exit to a side road that has a traffic light to get back onto Westnedge!

The bottom of the planter has four different mature herb plants -- parsley, basil, sage, and dill). Holy bang for your buck! Get there quick before they're gone.

They are the most beautiful and healthy trees I have planted here. I plan to return when I have time to do more serious tree purchasing and planting. I had a much better experience with Prudential than I have had at either of the big name garden centers in this area. Thank you Charlie and staff.

I took their advice not knowing much about buying trees. Charlie came out and planted them. The trees did not make it even one year, they all died. There is NO warranty on their trees it seems. We grew up in a small community like Vicksburg. My wife worked in the Village for 30 years. We chose Prudential over the preferred Nursery that our Condo Association promoted. We made a mistake it seems. That nursery gives a standard one year warranty which would have covered our trees. Only OUR trees died. Very disappointed in this and the fact that Charlie will not talk with us. Lesson learned.

Definitely a day-maker! I've got admit I was nervous to see this pop up on our credit card statement, since it had about five birds of paradise and three gigantic gerbera daisies (truly the most vibrant and gigantic blooms I've seen -- they reminded me of prima ballerina tutus that were perfectly starched!) I would have expected that these eight stems alone, let alone any filler, would run a pretty penny. But when I glanced at our credit card statement, it was under $30. I can't tell you how many times I see people post photos of bouquets on Yelp and say how disappointed they are with what they got for the amount they paid (NOT at this particular business, just in general). The spot really bring the wow factor for a very affordable price in my opinion. That said, my husband probably picked out each bloom by himself and knows exactly what I like -- but the fact that they have flowers this lovely and don't charge an arm and a leg for them is definitely good info to have. There really are quite a few fabulous businesses and this particular stretch of Portage Road by West and Austin lakes -- I highly recommend checking out Polderman's, Trove, and West Lake pharmacy/gift shop If you're in this neck of the woods visiting Presidential Brewing, The Cove, or Latitude 42.

As far as organic content, hard to say. Once it dried out it looked more like fine sand. It grew tons of crab grass and assorted other weeds.

She says she's an "interior designer", but well......if you like the ratty clearance section at Hobby Lobby, you would like her style. The place is not at all warm and welcoming. These photos are just a very small percentage of the signs placed all over store. Business 101... No negativity in your signs/advertising ! Unfortunately, as the saying goes, there's a sucker born every minute. There's a high turnover of vendors who think they're going to make a killing on the little crafts and garage sale items they sell there. Let me save you the disappointment. You won't even break even. Most likely you'll lose money and move out quickly so the next unsuspecting victim can move in. The owner keeps store hours very limited because she pays the hourly help out of her pocket and it save her lots of money to have limited hours. All the while rent is due each month from vendors. You'd be better off selling on FB Marketplace, eBay, etc. Avoid this place at all costs.
