    I could wander around this place for ages. My kids and I love visiting the koi. Staff is very helpful and accommodating. At this point in my life I’m limited to gardening on a balcony, but I’m making the best of it with herbs and things that can grow in small pots.

    The pet supply store is great too and staff there has always been wonderful. Though it seems a more separate business now. Both are great and I love to shop a small, local business that I can fit in my budget.

    Absolutely love this place! Their selection of plants is amazing! If you like aquatic plants, they have them. If you are looking for landscaping materials, it's there. They have a nice selection of healthy house plants. It's a peaceful and enjoyable place to shop. Check out their koi pond when you are there! Their prices are competitive. Great place!!
