Got there and unloaded super quick. If you're bringing bark mulch you'll be in the front parking lot. Super super tight. Slide tandems all the way forward and be careful lots of cars and a very small lot

The staff is always friendly, and they are extremely knowledgeable about their plants. They always give advice about the type of light and water and soil a plant needs, and they never make me feel like I'm asking a dumb question! They also can keep a record of the plants you've bought so you can look one up if you can't remember the name or when you got it.

This is my favorite store in the valley. It's been great to have access to such a variety of plants. We have been multiple times but Diane was especially helpful at today's visit. Can't wait to get back!
