The annuals and perennials here are healthy and hardy. They have beautiful hanging baskets, from fuchsias to geraniums, as well as native plants and pest resistant flowers. Nice people and dedicated employees. Thanks, Babikow, for making my spring yard look amazing! All the while attracting hummingbirds, pollinators and butterflies!

The drive to this place was so pleasant, it was surrounded by miles and miles of farm land and beautiful homes. It had a very small town vibe to it. I didn't get any data service in this area. They had a nice variety of cone flowers. Prices seem to be decent. Staff were very friendly and helpful. They had perennial hibiscuses, very healthy looking hydrangea varieties, lavenders, clematis, elephant ear plants and a good collection of other sun and shady perennials along with annuals. Found the most pretty looking sedum plant, forgot to buy it though. All plants looked healthy. They were selling proven winners brand too.

We popped in late this Spring and connected with Vicki, whose knowledge is incredible, and only outpaced by her obvious enjoyment in helping people. She helped us buy the perfect hanging baskets, told us the smart way to take care of them, and cheered us on as we left to take them home! Today, we went back for Fall flowers and she did it again. Really, the whole staff is awesome, helpful, and oh-so kind. You cannot go wrong here. And their prices are terrific. For me, not the best reason to go, but the cherry on top of the otherwise already delicious experience.

We easily spent almost an hour walking looking through their various offerings *Great information. The plants had thorough written descriptions with them that allowed us to know exactly what we were getting. *Competitive pricing.

This helped as we weren't constantly hearing "I'm bored" as we were trying to make final decisions. All in all, very pleased with our experience at Poor Boy's Garden Center.

I was blown away with the selection of house plants and all of themat a very good price too. Considering the astronomical price tag that some plants have today. For $9.99, I couldn't leave without buying a new plant. Poor Boys has all of your needs to tend to your plants and garden. From soil and neem oil to planter pots and worm castings. They carried a good selection of annual and perennial plants for your garden as well as a smaller selection of herbs, greens, and lettuce, given the major gardening season is starting to come to an end. They even had different types of fruit trees with fruit already on the limbs. The young guy working in the garden center was really nice and answered the various questions I had. He even helped me bring my items to the car. If you've got a green thumb and are in need of some new house plants or new items for your garden, then definitely give Poor Boy a visit.
