Probably one of the best nurseries I've ever been to. Impeccably arranged, not one plant in bad shape, beautiful store, and a little bistro area with free coffee? A fantastic experience.

Good selection of perennials, shrubs and indoor plants. Some specialty items and a nice selection of orchids. The prices are reasonable especially as it is located in a high end area. The interior looks somewhat dated and needs upgrades to bring it in the 21st century. That's why the 4 stars

Love this place, so nice to have a large gardening shop with good taste. Their plants are healthy and well presented. We always enjoy talking to Tom and meeting his sweet pups in his lovely surroundings.
