Stumbled across this little gem while searching for a Nong Nooch. It was about an hour away, so I emailed the owner to confirm they in fact had one in stock. I received an email back promptly, and they agreed to keep it for me to pick up the following weekend. I emailed again to confirm one last time the day before, and they again responded promptly and notified me of a change in their hours. We made the trip and ended up coming home with several plants! We were pleasantly surprised by all the wonderful plants they had, the staff was very kind and helpful, and in the end it was worth the travel time for us. Highly recommend them now when people are looking for new plants shops, and we will definitely stop by again!
I was pleasantly surprised by how many amazing plants were here, many beautiful ones I had never seen before. I came for 1 plant and left with 4! Q was very friendly and helpful in getting me what I was looking for and teaching me how to care for them! Thank you so much
6 stars! This place is definition of secret garden. Its magical and you can feel the love. Great selection, good prices. Caden, owner & staff knowledgeable and friendly. Made my Top nursery list
Love this plant store! The gentlemen that work here are very informative, polite, and will help you with plant selection. They have a price sheet that they will hand you because not every plant is priced - some have signs, some have the price written on the side of the pot, etc. You can find a huge selection of Philodendron, Calathea/Maranta, Ficus, and many more. They also have some more rare, pricey plants, but their prices compared to other places are awesome! They even mark down specific plants in case they're not looking their 100%. They have their own growing area and rehab station towards the back, and of course are not for sale yet because they want to give you their best. I will be coming here for most of my plant shopping! Can't wait to see what they have in the spring and summer months Ps- yes this is a greenhouse outside of someone's house!! I was confused too but it was easy to spot once I arrived at the address.
Very hidden, took us driving past 3 times and checking other reviews before we were brave enough to go up to the house. There was an open gate to the left with a small sign saying Zone 9 Tropicals. So glad we stopped! It was amazing to see all of the plants he had and they were helpful and available to answer questions. I am so happy with the plants I bought, and got more than I planned due to their service and the quality of the plants there. Definitely recommend for unique or hard to find plants, it was worth the drive.
