very knowledegable staff, these people know everything about plants!
That and the wide selection of plants make it a worthwhile trip vs. the big box
stores.

Great plants, but horrible service. The plants here are very high quality. I would agree with other reviewers that they cost more than the big chain stores, but definitely prettier, healthier plants. Unfortunately, their customer service is horrible. I know nothing about plants and when I asked for assistance trying to select what would be best to plant around my home, I was given a flip response of, «you’re just going to have to try something.» Yeah, that was super helpful. While the plants were great quality, I won’t be going back.

Awesome little nursery located really close to my house. I went there for the first time today, hoping to find some fun ideas of things to plant so I can have a little garden this year! I got some different seeds and then browsed the potted plants section for a bit. The prices are awesome and the staff was very helpful. The woman checking me out gave me a discount on the lantana I bought because it is winter and they tend to wilt during this time of year. This will be my spot in G-​ville to tend to all my gardening needs!
