What a beautiful store! There are so many beautiful garden decor items, it's hard to choose.They have a wonderful organic seedling selection that is competitively priced. They also have a wide variety of perennials and annuals to choose from.This was my first shopping experience here and my only complaint is that I didn't shop in here sooner. The shop is very nicely maintained. I will be back!

I love coming to this nursery. Everyone is extremely friendly and helpful. Yes their pricing is slightly more than the same exact thing at a big box store, however I will continue purchasing from them due to the experience and the wealth of information and knowledge everyone is willing to share.I’ve worked with Hank and quite a few others and everyone has great to work will. I will continue coming here for all my planting needs.

I’ve been searching for a top quality nursery with all products, fertilizers, annuals, perennials, shrubs and trees. This nursery was recommended by a friend and she was right. They have everything I needed. Will be shopping here continuously through the years.

They have always been helpful and have a good selection of many different items including ponding materials and fish including Koi. Nice to walk around and see all the various flowers, plants and trees! They also have Ornamental figures for your garden decorating. Great choice to visit.

Holy cow! This place is absolutely FANTASTIC.I spoke with a gentleman on the phone before coming in because I had a few questions about different soil types. He was extremely patient and helpful. They had exactly what I needed and I headed over. I have never visited this location before and it really took me by surprise. I loved the atmosphere and the decor for the holiday. I spoke with a woman named Rebecca. She directed me to the two locations to browse all of the soil and nutrients I was looking for. She answered all of my questions and she was so patient with me. I appreciate that she had a personality and did not act like a miserable robot (I have gotten some attitude to other places I've gone with gardening questions). Rebecca was informative and a pleasure to speak with.During quarantine I really got into gardening and I'm trying to learn how to grow all kinds of fruits and veggies. It's a wonderful hobby and keeps me occupied and I think I have found my GO TO place for anything garden related. All of the staff members here are knowledgeable and kind + this store LITERALLY has anything you could ever need. They offer a wonderful variety of great products and their *PRICES are unbeatable* ! They definitely do right by all of their customers and I greatly appreciate that. I cannot wait to come back during the day so I can really give it a good look around. The place is HUGE! Definitely check them out -- I 100% recommend.Truly thankful to have a place like this near where I live. I can't believe I never knew about them!Also I want to state - the place has a nice cheerful atmosphere and I really appreciate that during these unprecedented times. Keep up the great work!

I've been going to them at the advice of a coworker. They are exceptionally friendly, and have a larger than average selection. Sometimes it's just fun to walk around browsing, and check out the ducks. Their plants seem to do well, and I'm waiting for the hostas to start popping up this year.

Very helpful and friendly staff. Butch and his son are always very knowledgeable. All the plants I've ever bought here are healthy and thrive. They usually do activities for the kids around the holidays which is nice.

I think it’s pretty important for them to get customer’s back.But the way I was treated or the lack there of, won’t be bringing me !! My wife and I went into the outdoor plant area and found a employee water plants and “excuse me” to her. She kept on watering, not turning around to acknowledge us!Hello!! Were customers who actually ventured out to “Shop” how many of them do you see these days! Apparently Starkie is not hurting! Acknowledge the customer! Sam Walton once wrote,hey what did he know!

A great place for all your gardening needs. They have a wonderful array of unique items to accent your indoor or outdoor space. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable. A refreshing change from the huge warehouse type garden centers.

Me and my father went in to go look for things for the garden outside. We were helped by a girl named Rebecca. Very helpful and knew exactly what she was doing. Definitely will come back if she is there. Deserves a raise.

So happy they offered goat yoga. What a great experience! However, it’s held in a shed type of building which is FREEZING! It’s also super crowded so you can’t really perform the yoga with out hitting your neighbor.
