The offerings of xeric-suitable, native shrubs like golden current and sand cherry support pollinators in the spring and birds in the summer. If lilacs are more your thing, they have them. And so do I :-) . I plant my annual garden with tomatoes, tomatillos, peppers, eggplants, and other delights propagated for Harlequin's Gardens. Best of all, by shopping there, I am supporting a local family-owned business that cares about this community. If in doubt about the suitability of a plant for your soil, exposure, or watering pattern, chat it out with Mikl or any one of his employees to bring home the right green buddies for your property. In the end, you will have plants that thrive with proper care instead of blowing money on plants more suitable for other climate zones.

While not a brick and mortar plant shop, Growing Gardens does sell the best organic seedlings in…read moretheir spring plant sale. That's around the first two weeks of May every year. They sell veggie, flower and a great selection of native plant seedlings. Show up early though. The line to get in forms 10 minutes before the sale opens. Service is friendly and prompt. And while the seedlings are pricier that those in big box stores, you do get the value that you pay for. Tip: if you're getting lots of seedlings, bring your own high-sided plastic or wooden tray. The little pots tend to flop around in the small cardboard trays that they send you home with and you'll get soil all over your car. Cardboard is not ideal because some of the plants may be damp underneath and this composty liquid could seep through to your carpet.

We just moved to Boulder county and are excited to begin our yard projects for the Spring and…read moreSummer. I saw an ad in a gardening newspaper about Growing Gardens. It was my first time hearing about them. We decided to go check out the 15th Annual Growing Gardens Community Plant Sale. For 2015 the dates at May 2-3, 9-10, 16-17. The times are from 8am-4pm. We showed up to the Growing Gardens Greenhouse on 1630 Hawthorne Ave in Boulder and it was packed full of people! There were signs pointing us to the greenhouse (which was great since it is in a neighborhood and didn't quite look right!). There were folks outside assisting with parking and we were able to park close by. Once inside we found a selection of annuals, perennials and harvesting crops. We were delighted to find everything we wanted to plant in our new raised beds. We found a wide variety of fruit and vegetables. We went home with 2 raspberry bushes ($15), multiple lettuces (they have a ton of options), hot peppers, sweet peppers, zucchini, yellow squash, tomatoes, multiple herbs, green pole beans, eggplant... We spent nearly $200 but got a couple boxes full of plants! They were sadly out of blueberry bushes when we got there. Maybe they will be there in the next couple weekends? I am not sure if they grow more plants elsewhere, but if not you will want to go early! Overall, I like that I am supporting a Colorado organization. The plants were reasonably priced and in great condition. The volunteers/employees were helpful and (some not others) were knowledgable. It was a fun way to spend our morning and we got a bunch of great plants! If our crop does well, I plan on going to Growing Gardens again next year!

I headed straight for the tool section, where Jude helped me track down the exact drill bits I needed. Both Jude and Nathan were excellent--helpful, patient, and friendly. The product selection is solid, but what really stood out is the level of customer service. It's rare these days to find retail staff who go above and beyond, and these two certainly did (even humoring me as I reminisced about my own time working in retail). As a funny side note, I even got the chance to chase after a customer and his dog after he accidentally left a dog bone behind at the counter. Unfortunately, I wasn't fast enough to return it--maybe he'll return for his purchase! All in all, great selection, great service, and a team that makes shopping here a genuinely positive experience.
