Plantopia Home and Garden

I have had the distinct joy of going to a great many garden supply/​plant nurseries. In part because the wife and I love gardening, and in part because a big greenhouse is the perfect place to pretend you’re in Jurassic Park
As an experienced imaginary-​dinosaur wrangler, I’ve got a decent handle on what makes a good and a bad garden store, and this one (which we dropped in on on their grand opening weekend!) struck me as an especially well-​presented. It was super clean, impeccably organized, and well-​staffed. They have a very good selection of both the big local plants from grasses to trees, and the more obscure plants such as air plants and succulents.
They even have large outdoor stashes of fresh wood mulches of various kinds, which they’ll help you load up (but make sure you’ve got an empty trailer, truck bed, or trunk you don’t care about to do it!)
If you’re at all interested in checking out a new place to fill your plants needs, this is a great one!
The only things I didn’t see were bags of soil (which I’m sure I just missed) and tools — I didn’t see any tools at all. None. I can only imagine I just missed them, but just a heads-​up that it may not be the best place to find non-​plant garden supplies.
