    Great selection of some really unique plants- tiny and large. Affordable prices. Friendly, knowledgeable staff and great service. The owner knows her plants!! Will be visiting again for sure!

    My favorite nursery in Denver! Pros: (1) One of the nicest and most helpful owners I have ever met. Dennis--the owner--spent nearly 30 minutes meticulously explaining different types of plants, the pros and cons of each type of plant, answering my questions, and just discussing life. (2) Quaint and cozy little store; nevertheless, the store has a wide array of selections. (3) Parking! Unlike majority of places in Cap Hill, this store actually has a few dedicated parking spots right in front of the store. Saves you some trouble from trying to find street parking. Cons: None

    Before. Look at the state of this poor darling.

    If you love plants and you live in Denver, you will inevitably make the pilgrimage to Dennis sooner or later. My visit came later because plant stores are dangerous for me and this one is deadly - beautiful darlings of all sizes made even more beautiful by Dennis's knowing and loving care. I had passed the store, located right in the heart of 6th Avenue, many times and gazed longingly inside and I had heard about Dennis from various plant lovers in the area. I finally made the trek due to an aloe that was at death's door. "I have to go see Dennis!", I cried, tucking the aloe under my arm and speeding away. It ended up that I was literally doing everything wrong with this plant. It had gone ash grey and brittle because I considered it a succulent (it's not) and was starving it of water. I thought it wanted full sun (it does) but hadn't considered that it might need a little bit of UV protection through a glass pane and had been keeping it on the sill of an open window. I had dried this poor thing out, and burnt it to a crisp as a bonus. Dennis walked me patiently through how to best take care of this aloe and it revived within two days, and now, a week in, the plant is thriving better than it ever has. I let myself walk around the store a bit afterwards and picked up a gorgeous calathea. It's a justified purchase! I can't just walk out after all that life saving advice without buying something - that would be rude! A guy was chatting about his ailing plant when I arrived, and by the time I'd started wrapping up my own chat with Dennis, another guy was on his way in with a plant in questionable state. Dennis is the guru, no doubt.

    Green, green everywhere. If you like whimsy and small, confined spaces with surprises around every corner, then this is your hang out. How the owner, a very, very chill and informative dude, managed to fit a vehicle in the tiny, cozy place - baffles me. But it's there. A red car in the back...just hanging out amongst lively and wild foliage that surrounds you in every direction. Pots, succulents, ferns - he's got them. And seems to receive new plants on the weekly. So, I'd recommend popping in more than once if you are really looking into investing in a permanent house plant to adorn your living room. The owner really does know his herbery. In fact, he was casually naming plants by their kingdom, species, genus, and family (or however that goes) like I knew exactly what he was talking about. You can tell he really loves what he does and loves selling his plants to a happy owner even more. Parking is tough, but once you step foot inside you're enveloped in another world!

    Well I've always spotted this place out every time I'm heading up to Dazbog and have always wanted to stop by to buy some plants. Today, I did just that. I moved into an apartment with lots of sunlight and wanted to somewhat fill it with some little green buddies so I checked this place out. First off, the owner is extremely knowledgable about his plants. I pointed to different ones and he rattled off the names. I bought a HUGE pothos for $15, I'm talking about bigger than the ones you see at, say, Queen Soopers, full and healthy! This is the plant that you can't kill. I bought a tiny pothos called Snow White because of the leaves, for $5. The store contains all sorts of plants, pots, incense and plant chimes, yes plant chimes for $9.

    Staff was very stuffy and unfriendly. I surely would of purchased something had they not been so rude. Will not go back.

    The quality of plants is great, (I think I bought 5) and Dennis is willing to answer any and all questions.

    Unfortunately I had a small hiccup with a purchase, but when I called the store manager, she…read morerectified the situation immediately. I absolutely compliment her on correcting the issue without hesitation. The store itself is loaded to the brim with beautiful plants and every accessory you could need. I've never seen such a selection that fun pots in every color you can imagine, watering cans galore and cute garden accessories. Really they have everything you'd want in a garden center. The place is quite far from my home but I'm glad I found County Fair Garden Center, and willl make a stop there anytime I'm in that part of town. Shop local.

    There are new owners, since the original owner of Welby gardens that grew all the Hardy Boy plants…read moreretired and sold his production facility and this garden shop. The new owners are not the same, and noticed bugs, bugs and more bugs on almost every plant I picked up. I asked where they get their plants and they wouldn't answer me. I think they are buying poor quality plants and charging the Hardy Boy prices. Good luck with that! I spoke with the staff and they admitted that they are having a fungal nat problem. I couldn't find one plant that didn't have bugs when checking the stems. Lots of stressed out plants too. Will never come back. Sorry. Too bad since it's a cute store and even shopping at the old location.
