What truly sets The Lily Pad apart, however, is the exceptional customer service. Susan and Jennifer were absolutely amazing and are the reason I will continue to shop here.

I went in hoping to find something special for a friend's birthday... and walked out completely blown away by the experience. Mary Ellen, Cayleigh, and their team didn't just help me pick out gifts -- they made the entire process feel thoughtful and personal. They listened, offered the sweetest suggestions, and somehow turned what could have been a quick errand into one of the most enjoyable shopping trips I've had in a long time. Their kindness felt genuine, their excitement was contagious, and their attention to detail was incredible. What surprised me most was how invested they were in helping me make someone else feel celebrated. That level of care is rare and says so much about the heart behind this store. It's not just a place to shop -- it's a place that reminds you how meaningful great customer service and genuine human connection can be. I left with the perfect gifts and an even better impression. I can't recommend them enough and already can't wait to go back. I highly recommend!! Amazing value and selections for all!!

Ferns are great plants they take minimal care and maintenance and have so many variaties. So too with the Japanese maples. I guess I like low maintenance plants. I saw for the first time lemon, lime, and orange trees. Impulse almost got the better of me. But I have made a decision to return and pick up some blueberry bushes.

My husband and I like to go to the gardens to walk and then stop by the store to look around. The other day, we bought a "hard to find" type of fern and it was reasonably priced. This place is a lot more than a plant shop and you could spend hours just looking at all the interesting things they have for sale. Let me say, however, bring your wallet because they can be pricey. Also be careful if you have kids with you because the shop can be crowded and things can easily be broken. The positives are that the shop layout is beautiful and the decorators took a lot of time to make it visibly appealing to the customers. And, the staff here are friendly and very knowledgeable about plants.

But here's the mystery: a store that sells approximately 97% breakable objects apparently believes in sending them home into the world completely unprotected. Every visit goes like this: Me: "Do you have paper to wrap this?" Cashier: checks empty drawer like it might magically appear Cashier: "No, sorry." So there I am, walking out with a delicate glass vase, balancing it like the Olympic torch while praying the parking lot doesn't have speed bumps. I'm not asking for museum-level packing. Just... maybe a sheet of paper? A napkin? A page from last week's sales flyer? At this point I'd settle for someone whispering, "Good luck." It's a little ironic that a store full of fragile items sends you out the door like you're transporting antique china in your bare hands. Still love the store. Just wish the breakables had a slightly better survival plan between the register and my car.
