The nursery spans over a large area and is very well organized with signs for each section. They also have maps available to help. The staff is friendly and very knowledgeable on native plants. The plants in the sections are all labeled and include their height, sun + water needs, and their scientific names. We went to get some plants for our new woodland planting area and were pleasantly surprised to see an entire section dedicated to woodland/shade plants. I recommend visiting a little later in the planting seasons since their plants are a bit small in spring (due to them growing it themselves each year. Prices are reasonable and you can really tell the employees put love into growing them. We've gotten plants from them for a few years and the majority of them have grown to their full heights. 100% worth the hour drive for us. Would recommend this nursery to all and I plan on going back next year :)

Incredibly expensive for the size of plant you get - the minimums for the plugs pretty outrageous and impossible unless your spending thousands of dollars, literally. Yes, they have a plethora of plants that are not sold elsewhere as well as an enormous amount of plants, priced exorbitantly, that are sold everywhere. I started planting my garden this year and spent a hefty sum at Earth Tones two months ago in early May. I hugely hugely regret it. Currently my garden is a collection of plants purchased at three nurseries with Earth Tones being one of the three. Almost every single plant purchased at earth tones is covered with powdery mildew. Three Valeriana officinalis, each planted across a 40 foot expanse - covered in mildew - plants next to them from another nursery - nothing as of now. It started on the two Antennaria plantaginifolia plants, which errupted in a frothy mildew as soon as they started to grow. This mildew is now showing on all the plants I purchased from Earth Tones. I am really upset. This morning, I threw away 70$ worth of plants. I fear I will have to throw away more since it is starting to spread across my garden. The sedges I bought? Dying and so unhappy. The purple love grass. Full of weeds and barely growing. The the plants came with So. Many. Weeds, both visible and invisible seedlings, it is beyond frustrating. It feels super careless, especially at the incredible price point they are selling their plants. Not a single plant from the other nurseries are showing this mildew or struggling, but the plants from ET - it started showing a couple of weeks after they went into the ground. I spent over $500 at Earth Tones and I will never spend another dime. I am hoping I can save the rest of my garden from being infected. My other plants are thriving, my other grasses are exploding with joy. Please be careful when purchasing from them. I do not recommend this nursery or their quality.

My friend is an artist who had painted a stunning picture of his wife in a field of red flowers and another of a guardian angel for her when she was ill. Brenda took those two images and created an unique and beautiful tribute unlike anything I've ever seen -- 36 roses in a vase with a pair of wings. My friend was truly touched by the arrangement as well as the symbolism behind it. I cannot thank Brenda enough for her dedication and care for this job. The price was right, and she went above and beyond to get just the proper accessories for the flowers.

LOCATION: The shop is located in a new shopping plaza that is set back on Woodbury's Main Street. EXPERIENCE: I first countered Brenda Christie's event installations at the opening of Home and Earth, just north of her shop on Woodbury's Main Street. The design wove vertical, horizontal, and center table floral displays with candles of equally varied dimension. Many florists will produce a pretty floral arrangement, but memorable... eye-catching? For that I would recruit Brenda Christie. Although Home and Earth is worth a visit in itself, as testament to the event experience, I returned to the shop the following day just to have more opportunity to enjoy the ephemeral installation! A recent visit to Woodbury's Bouquets & Beyond provided opportunity for me to see a summer collection of stems awaiting use by talented, award-winning florist and business owner, Brenda Christie. The case is filled with vibrantly colored blooms, including those that popularly appear in local summer gardens, such as hydrangea, lady's mantle, and sea holly, as well as tropicals that are not commonly found in other Litchfield County florist shops. The diversity of the collection reflects the bold creativity of Brenda Christie, through whom a unique and opulent bouquet is guaranteed. While the shop is positioned in a new business plaza in the southeastern corner of Litchfield County, Christie's floral designs have been installed in event spaces, business offices, and homes across the state. Local partners include the Mayflower Inn and Spa, Winvian Farm, Hopkins Vineyard, the 1754 House, and the Litchfield Inn.
