Then, several visits and purchases over the years make me feel comfortable and excited enough to revisit, mostly this location. The most recent visit was no exception. Colourful annuals fit for the spring were aplenty both in the front and the back of the store, and we found plants here that we hadn't seen at any other major garden centre in the Capital Region so far. Maiden grass was the awesome find on the most recent visit, and the staff at checkout answered our questions about plant care which was very helpful. The prices appear to be competitive, as we found both lower, equivalent, and higher prices compared to several garden centres in the area. Parking here has not been an issue and they have their own parking lot, and we appreciated they were open till 7pm when some other stores were closed. I hope they stay open for a long time.

Among the…read moreHewitt's I have visited or driven by, this one does have good curb appeal, at least from driving by on Western Avenue. I wish their parking lot had more appeal though, it's badly in need of re-paving. Once you're actually inside, you'll find there's a lot more to check out than you can see from Western Avenue as well. Visiting at the end of the season is a bit of a 2-edged sword. They're out of a lot of things right now as they stock up for fall and Christmas promotions. But at the same time, you can get some really good deals on close-out items, as I did this time. This store is well staffed and everyone there was friendly and helpful. I'm looking forward to coming back here as their seasonal inventories change.

I'll admit to being a simple creature, but I found this place pretty magical. They have multiple…read morehuge greenhouses with a super wide variety of plants, both decorative and edible. The edible was what I was there for: we spent ages deciding between different varieties of (very healthy) cucumber starts and patio tomatoes. They even have stuff that I'd never seen in a nursery around here before, like lemongrass. Even if you don't have any pressing need for petunias, the greenhouses are a really nice environment for wandering around and smelling the flowers for a while.

I went very early in the season and some of the edibles I wanted weren't quite ready for sale. I was impressed to learn they had many varieties of tomatoes (bush and vine, cherry, grape, beefsteak, etc) and many variations of herbs (culinary and ornamental rosemary, assortments of lavender, thymes). Since I also went early in the day, everything was well stocked, I had a crew member show me to each item I was looking for, and it was still pleasantly cool in all the green houses. Basically, it was paradise for me for the time I was there. As a hobby gardener who only has container plants on my patio, I appreciated the extra help and pointers when I had questions. This is high on my list of places to go when I'm looking to pick up a new plant.

We stopped by here recently after the attractive lighting and misting behind the shop window caught our eyes while driving through the street, and what we found inside was just as interesting. Apparently opened about six weeks ago, this shop has a variety of pots and plants for sale (and for our viewing pleasure, of course) and a few odds and ends, like the plant hangers. The prices vary but generally seem reasonable, and apparently there's a 50% off sale going on with a purchase of a live plant and a pot. The wall of plants was beautiful to look at, and it seems like the staff can help with plant selections and care instructions depending on whether you're a beginner, a pro, or somewhere in between. I like this shop and hope they do well.

Shopping inside was a bit challenging, because they were closing out summer and autumn items in preparation for Christmas (and you know they'll have a great Christmas display, because it's a Hewitt's). But I did manage to find a few deals on summer items. It's unlikely I'd shop here regularly, mostly because there's another Hewitt's 1 mile from where I live, but I'd certainly stop in again if I'm in the area.
