The Potting Shed By Carlisle

Jack is fantastic! Talented, prompt, and a man of fabulous taste! This place is a find, and worth the drive if you haven’t been. The prices are reasonable, and there’s no snobbery here; quite the opposite. It’s warm, gorgeous and full of so many ideas and things you’ll want to bring home you won’t believe it. The driftwood succulents are a hit for gifts or for a holiday table.

Nice selection of succulents and air plants.

This place is simply AMAZING! Over the last two months, I bought a beautiful outdoor table with benches and chairs, another stunning table for my writing/​craft area, and a wood/​metal shelf. The shelf is an incredible vintage piece and the tables and chairs were all made out of reclaimed wood by a local artist. The one table was actually made out of old bleachers from Hemet High School. On all three occasions, Oscar personally delivered the items to my home and once both Oscar and Jack came. They have been incredibly nice and helpful. I do live just a short drive from The Potting Shed, but it was still impressive that they always brought my furniture to me on the same day. In fact, once I bought a dresser from the store next door and they even brought that to me! Some things may be pricey, but considering how special the items are, if you can afford them why would you buy from an expensive furniture store when you can get something unique, local, and amazing?! Can’t say enough about the place! :-)

Jack has such a beautiful and creative place. It’s full of unique plants and garden décor. I had the best time bringing my own container to The Potting Shed and had him help me pick out a succulent arrangement and planted it right there! So much fun and inspiration all around. And it’s minutes from all the shops at the circle. Great place!

Finally stopped in to fill one last pot and was pleasantly surprised with selection, prices, and customer service. I’ll definitely be stopping in more often. Highly recommended to add that something special to your garden.

I’ve heard a lot of good things about this place but had not ventured over until yesterday. Wow, loved it! I went for succulents and found a really nice variety but, I also found some beautiful and unusual flowering plants for the yard. Met the owner, Jack, when he offered to help me carry my many finds to the car. So nice!
I’d recommend checking this place out– really nice assortment of succulents and other plants, lots of great gift ideas, too!

One of my favorite places to buy succulents and drought tolerant plants, garden décor, wee treasures for my home and garden and explore the creativity in display design and art that Jack Carlisle curates and cultivates in his extraordinary ‘Shed’ in downtown Orange.
It is a wonderful location to sit and chat with one of the other customers or gather some friends with to go coffee containers in hand and plop down in one of the diverse, every changing (always for sale) unique seating arrangements and feel like you have landed in a magical secret garden right off Chapman!
If you haven’t visited yet, bring your ‘dosh’ and go enjoy this whimsical and delightful retreat. If you still have money and time left over, browse thru the vendors inside Vintiques, part of the large property. Wahoo’s is across the street so you can go and get some spicy citrus fish tacos afterwards.
All in all a perfect way to spend the day. And if Sip and Shop is going on, free wine and yummies are available.
I always leave feeling calm, happy and stoked about my purchases!
