Note that they also grow the plants in their own nursery so it's not a matter of checking San Marcos growers or Monrovia to see if they can special order for you. Great for bulk delivery of soil, mulch, etc., and all the soil and compost I've gotten from them (probably 20+ cubic yards now) has been nice and clean, no weed seeds. Service can be a little hit or miss - most times it's great, but a couple of times I've had a guy at the desk who gave such minimal answers to my stock questions that I ended up coming back another time to ask someone else.

Hidden gem with a huge selection and variety of plants!…read more After visiting my mother and hearing about her new obsession with Hoyas I decided I should add one to my collection as well. I didn't know this place existed until I found it on Yelp and am glad I visited. When you walk in there are rows and rows of a variety of different plants that are overall healthy and well cared for. I was greeted shortly after my arrival by an man who said to let him know if I needed any help, which I appreciated. He didn't hover over me as a browsed, which is always nice. There are different rooms with everything from plants, metal artwork, pots, planting material, and gifts. The outside area is impressive with a large collection of ferns, succulents, cacti and flowers. I didn't find a hoya I liked but did find a beautiful red Salvia flower and bright pink Geranium I couldn't pass up. Overall the value of the plants is worth it but did see some overpriced plants. I fully support local businesses and understand retail stores don't always carry the quality you get from a shop like this. The man who checked me out was very friendly and wrapped my plants to prevent damage, which was nice. I highly recommend this place!

Even though it is not a large nursery, you still have a wide range of houseplants, herbs, and seedlings to choose from.

I hope to pop by again!

I always find it truly interesting about how people say negative things about the Home Depot. Why?…read moreBecause it really doesn't matter which Home Depot you go in to, they're all pretty much exactly the same. Yes, some are a little bit larger than others, but they all carry the same selection of great construction and home design based stuff. Whether you're in there looking for lighting equipment, power tools, gardening items and plants, or wood to build that whatever it is you want to build, you're going to find it here. What is there to complain about? In terms of pricing, they're very competitive with whatever marketplace your looking at. They sell things for a very reasonable price. So, if you're looking for that whatever, you pretty much know you're going be able to find it at the Home Depot, and you know you're gonna be paying a fair price for it. This location is situated right off of Highway One. I find this a great location, because you can just hop right off the highway, walk into the store, get whatever you need, and then jump right back on Highway One. You can't ask for more than that. Overall, from all my experiences here, the staff here have always been super nice. Nothing to complain about there. Thus, if you need what Home Depot has to offer, and you're in the area, this is the perfect place to go and buy it.

Prices as expected (NOT overpriced), discount refill programs on soil and fertilizer, locally grown more exotic baby plants, and plenty of inventory and variety to choose from. The owner, Jess, just has such a calm, everywoman vibe about her, and she is so genuinely helpful! Not fake friendly or preoccupied/bothered or standoffish and know-it-all...just helpful and wise and experienced and upfront! I've seen her handle nosy, pushy customers with sincere help and without making them feel bad...that speaks volumes to me. Stepping into her shop, her absolute lil oasis, makes my day slow down a little and makes me take a deep breath and start looking at things a lil more closely. She's taken this space and just lushed it out to the max! It looks freaking incredible. I see from her regular social media posts that she designs and maintains indoor plant displays in multiple local businesses, too. I generally don't have any trouble finding parking when I come during the week, which is a treat for Carmel! I love this little location! Only about 1.5 blocks off Ocean Avenue, but a much more relaxed and friendly and everyday small town vibe is found in this shopping center. This place is a gem! Get here and support this lovely woman and her shop STAT! You will not be sad that you stopped in! Should be 10 stars!
