I would always drive by the shop heading to peterborough and i've always wanted to stop but never did! Finally I decided to give it a chance and I'm so glad I did!! Such a cute place And you can really tell that the employees care about the plants and the cute animals thar live there. I would most definitely recommend it to anyone passing by:)

This is my hometown greenhouse. I’ve been going here since I was a kid for over 30 years. They have always had an amazing selection of houseplants, tropicals, orchids, succulents, and garden varieties. The staff is incredibly nice and happy to help me with any questions I may have. They have a few furry feline friends who maintain the shop, painted turtles, and an amazing fish fertilizing system. I visit every time I’m in town!

I love it here. Great selection, prices.I always feel like I'm in a jungle walking through, which I love! You can purchase pretty much anything plant related here... they also have a gift/shopping area with local products, "stuff" for kids...etc. I've purchased houseplants to Christmas gifts here. Support local!

I purchased numerous plants here, probably around $100+; 2 spider plants, 1 larger one which is not doing well at all, have tried everything! I have had up to over 30 plants previously and do have a green thump, very disappointed. I am having a problem with the ones bought here. I definitely would not recommend surprisingly.Have NEVER had an issue with Home Depot plant department. Immensely disappointed!

Great selection with zero hospitality. House by the Side of the Road is near and dear to my heart because my mother who has passed was a frequent shopper. I was running through the greenery as a child. I was surprised by the chill factor. Staff made me feel like an inconvenience. Nothing ruins an experience more. The little things are the big things.

I had such a lovely experience shopping for a birthday gift for a friend of mine. I found some really nice items! When I went to the register, I remembered they sometimes have boxes to pack items in, especially when they are gifts. When I inquired, the two woman behind the counter not only boxed the gifts, they also wrapped them beautifully and tied a bow around everything. What an incredible service to offer. I will definitely be returning at Christmas time!!!!

Always great selection of plants. This time of year a huge selection of mums from a variety of sizes including some that will probably be close to 3 feet around. Great prices on these mums so don't miss out

Have been going here for years! Look, I know there's a place for the big box home improvement stores, but there's really no comparison.First, the staff is always amazing - so friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable.The selection is massive - just about anything you could want. And the quality is always amazing. Just when you think you've explored every nook and cranny, there's another chock full of more plants.Most recently, I went there on Mother's Day. While the crowds were huge and people had to park out on Rte 101, the staff was still incredibly helpful!Oh, and free popcorn!!!

Exceptional selection and variety. We go there and ALWAYS find several plants we take home. Helpful and expert staff and the turtle fountain/pond is a must-see for kids of all ages.

I went here for the first time today and I was truly amazed at the amount of plants and gardening supplies that they had! The title makes it sound like this place is small but it’s much bigger than you’d expect! The plants were very well cared for and a lot of them had short descriptions of what they are and how to care for them. They have an abundance of pots to choose from and plenty of garden ornaments. Truly a gardener’s paradise! A nice touch touch is that they also offer free popcorn, cookies and water while you walk around and enjoy the plants. Sidenote: they have some turles and fish that are fun to watch for a minute

Lovely family owned business with beautiful grounds, extensive plants of all different varieties. Really appreciate knowing where my plants come from and that they are pesticide free to help the wildlife. Love the fish and turtles and native plant offerings, too. Prices are competitive and quality looks phenomenal! Will be back.
