Purchased 2 pothos plants at different dates from this greenhouse and ended up having to throw both away because they were infested so bad with mealybugs that they couldn’t be saved. Wasted $50.
I thought the variety for indoor plants would be bigger and healthier than going to the typical trip to home depot garden but not really. I would say you should go and give it a shot but for me is not really that different. Now, the price IT IS kind of expensive here, i won't lie. The staff is incredibly nice and willing to help, they can plant the one you are buying in the new pot. It is a good place to walk around if that's all you want
Beautiful greenhouse and plant store! There were thousands of lovely, healthy plants. There was also a cute gift shop with fun food and snack items. I went in August, so there were some indoor house plants and a lot of outdoor varieties. I bought a gorgeous Peperomia Watermelon that was so full and beautiful. The prices were pretty fair for the large size of the plants. There were lots of air plants as well. The people who worked there were so kind and welcoming! 🪴💚
Excellent place to buy a plant
Eh..I wouldn't say it has all your gardening needs covered. ...basic ones sure
Called to inquire about Emerald Green plants was hung up on , I see from the other reviews why exactly I was hung up on will take my money elsewhere smh.
One of the better places that I've been at nice staff prices are prices nowadays
The young and older ladies in the store were amazing. The problem is the crabby 45 year old guy who doesn't know proper uptime service and how to answer questions. He's abrasive, rude, and just overly matter of fact. People who garden are typically in happy spaces and mindsets. I was happy to drive the distance and visit this place because they had the blueberry bushes I needed. Unfortunately, I'll never return because the guy was such a jerk.
Friendly customer service and clean environment.
