Good selection of plants here. We’ve bought several. A little pricey, and sadly some of our plants from here have had some issues. First one had cold damage (an employee confessed to me later that they were delivered on a very cold day and sat outside for a while but they sold them anyway) and it dropped all its leaves within a day or two of buying. Our calathea beauty star turned out to have mealybugs and our rubber plant had scale. I know that is partially on me for not inspecting the plants as thoroughly as possible before buying, however I started coming here because everyone says that big stores are the ones that are bound to have pest issues. Meanwhile all my Home Depot plants have been 100% healthy and insect-free! So the pests have been a bit of a disappointment. Otherwise the staff is friendly, there are some very cute resident pets (a couple cats, a couple parrots) and it’s always an enjoyable experience to stop in. Just make sure to inspect everything before you buy. Bring a flashlight.

We came here for our pumpkins and mums and were very happy with the variety and quality of everything. The staff is friendly as well.

Hi, Helen. We do not have them yet, we only have willow branches at this time. Hopefully we will have them next week. Please call 203-655-2549 and ask for Jaime, she is our floral director.

do you sell bonsai trees

I don't work there but am a customer. When I've been there, I did not see bonsai trees.

Does this nursery happen to carry several or most types of succulents? I've been specifically looking for the Haworthia cooperi, Echeveria elegans, and Haworthia cymbiformis types.

Hi, Alex! Succulents are very popular with our customers, so our stock is constantly changing. We have a great selection and we do carry different species of Haworthia and Echeveria. If you live in the local area, please stop in and we'd be happy help you. If you don't see what you are looking for, we will try and special order it for you!
