Amazing place with a excellent assortment of usual and hard to find plants. The Christmas shop is worth the visit alone. Very friendly knowledgeable staff.

Fantastic store with breath taking plants. Only giving 2 stars because on the afternoon of 8/22, while browsing plants, I found one I loved for $8.99. While checking out with this item, the older gentleman said he needed to check the price, because the tag was ripped and missing a number. The tag was clearly not ripped and displaying $8.99. About 3 minutes after he left, I went looking for him and found him in a separate area of the store disciplining an employee for pricing the plants incorrectly. She swapped a tag for $22.99 onto the plant, and then they both noticed me watching. The man stated I could have the plant for $18.99, and I told him I’d take it for $8.99 or would be leaving without my $100 order. The price tag was honored. Please be cautious with prices here and do not let them disappear when going to “check the price” on a clearly marked item.
