    Will return. All native. All green. Many butterflies. w Mmm I've no green thumb. My only time 'gardening' is during my supermarket trips, when I see a pretty orchid (have you seen an ugly orchid or flowers?!?) I buy it or them, start of my many gardening -:) journeys. This place is kind of hidden, lovely. They've many plants that you won't find elsewhere. No a/c (pls no hate here ...) One bathroom.

    Thanks to another Yelper-Michael H. I have fallen in love with growing my own butterfly garden. I researched my area and found someone who told me Sweet Bay Nursery was the place to go nearby. It really was close so we drove right over. Kathryn greeted and helped me pick out the best plants to attract and keep up with the growing caterpillars. I started small with only 8 plants. 4 plants for the front and 4 for the back. Two swamp milkweed which doesn't sound great but are beautiful, two white twinevine which will grow tall on a tripod of bamboo poles and 4 yellow heliotropes. Kathryn is a wealth of knowledge about butterflies and the plants. She was so helpful and explained what we needed to be successful. Tom, the owner, checked us out. knew what all about the plants and set me up with a pile of literature to read to become more knowledgeable about creating a habitat. He was also wonderful and so helpful. If you are looking for plants-especially, plants, bushes and trees that are good for pollinators and plants for creatures that are losing their habitat. They also have related materials for the plants like bamboo poles. They have a large area with so much that I can't imagine them not having what you need. They have a wall of pamphlets with information of tons of topics and field guides to purchase. I highly recommend Sweet Bay Nursery. Thank you to Sweet Bay Nursery. I appreciate them (and Yelper Michael H. for getting me started). I can't wait to watch the cocoons, caterpillars and beautiful butterflies enjoying the garden! I will definitely be back!!

    First time visiting and I fell in love with the place! It's a gardeners heaven The staff is super friendly and knowledgeable. They have plenty of native Florida plants that help the pollinators and quite frankly your/every garden. If you love Florida landscape and what you see in nature, this is the place you've been looking for!

    No longer turf but a native yard with many plants supplied by sweet bay nursery. Lower half is done upper half next!

    Sweet bay nursery is a great native plant nursery with a large selection and knowledgeable and kind staff. The property is beautiful just to wander and look around. Many established gardens and trees planted for examples and inspiration. Other garden items available as well.

    I have bought thousands of plants from Sweet Bay for my plant installations, public workshops, and teaching at Stocking Savvy and no one in Florida has such a diversity of Native Plants as Sweet Bay does. If you want it, they generally have it, or can find it. They also have a great array of bat, bee, and bird houses, seeds, posters, soil, and a crack team of staff that can solve any gardening issue! Attached is one of my favorite plants from there a Mangrove Spider lily. Do you have a sandy yard, shaded yard, wetland, or just want to attract the birds and bees? Don't go to home depot, go to Sweet Bay!

    My wife and I were looking to get a dining room set. We couldn't find anything we liked anywhere we…read morelooked. My wife mentioned stopping in at the Ellenton Store, since we live nearby. We were greeted by Jeffrey Slaton, and informed him what we were looking for, and what our size limitations were. He directed us to several different sets, and we had decided on one particular set. Jeffrey then went to check to see if it was in stock, with my wife in tow. While they were busy doing that, I continued to look around, and spotted a set we hadn't seen before. I sat at it, and thought it would be the perfect set for our dining area. When he and my wife came back to find me, I suggested it to my wife, and she agreed it would suit our home dining space. We also purchased a bench to go with the dining set, and a desk. Jeffrey was very courteous, very accommodating, answered all our questions, and most of all, didn't pressure us into making a decision. We would definitely shop at The Furniture Warehouse in Ellenton again, if we have any future furniture needs. They have a great selection at many different price points.

    First, be skeptical of all 5-star reviews. They give $25 gift certificates to people who place…read more5-star reviews. We really like the salesperson who waited on us. We were buying two $900/each recliners then were told it would be $149 for delivery. To soften the blow he said that would cover all purchases for a year. We then decided to also purchase a chair and a couch. Well, they added on another $50 delivery. What? He had just said it would cover all orders for 12 months. Nope. The couch was a floor model so it adds on another $50. One of the back corners had the back loose for the about 10 inches towards the top. The salesperson said he would have someone there staple it back. When we received the couch, the upper portion of the back had indeed been restapled. However, the rest of that corner below that was flopping open. Someone who said she was in charge of the repair dept. at corporate called and said that they would do nothing to correct it. She said that it was a floor model, therefore we had implicitly accepted any and all damage. That seems like a pretty nasty response. Doubly so since it was NOT damaged like that when we bought it.
