It had little dark blue fish on the base. I might be breaking some unknown color rules, who knows? I thought about that lamp for weeks. And went back and bought it.

Staff were attentive, knowledgeable, and friendly. Did I mention how much I love my lamp with its little fish pattern?

There is a place which honors San Francisco and the Richmond ( the District and not the city of Richmond). This place has art which honors the monuments of San Francisco and the style of San Francisco on clothing. It is called Fleetwood. On a Summer stroll on Clement street I landed inside Fleetwood. Inside you will find hats and jewelry along with shirts and seaters with prints that represent San Francisco from the Richmond District to the Golden Gate Bridge to the Sunset Dunes. You will find posters with San Francisco related prints along with tote bags. Fleetwood is also an art gallery and also has screen printing workshops. This is a good place to shop for clothing that is artistic which has a connection to San Francisco. It's interesting that weather in SF is "misunderstood"and to try to fight does "no good "so gear up when it's hot or cold in the Richmond "neighborhood "in SF at place called" Fleetwood" Go on a coffee run , walk or "jog"and you will find in SF place so you can yap and have a "dialogue" about what your next social media "vlog"and you will be surrounded sometimes like on 4th of July "Karl the Fog"

After a few years of landscaping, I've really seen & appreciated the quality of plants at Bennett Valley Gardens. Purchased verbena from both Home Depot and BVG and you can tell the caliber & condition between the two flowers after time. My verbenas from Bennett Valley Gardens are stronger, larger and have 3x more flowers than the others bought the same day from Home Depot, planted in the same ground. It's never hard to get solid planting advice here. I get welcomed as soon as I step into the yard. For a beginner like myself this really makes all the difference in the world. Maybe saving some dollars buying from the other guy, but some of the plants end up dying, even with careful attention. Don't fall for quality over quantity when it comes to your yard! Really recommend trying this place the next time you're in a planting mood.

The layout is clean, modern, and intentional--none of that cluttered chaos you find at the big-box stores. It feels more like a curated gallery for your outdoor (and indoor) life than a nursery. Their selection of plants is healthy and vibrant, but it's the pots and gifts that really set them apart. They've managed to source high-end, contemporary designs that actually feel unique. Whether you're looking for a statement piece for a San Francisco terrace or something low-profile for a Santa Rosa backyard, you'll find it here. The team is fantastic--knowledgeable, accessible, and they clearly take pride in the space. It's the kind of store that makes a neighborhood better.
