I have passed this place several times on my way to Cumming but never stopped. They have always carried very large garden structures that seemed to be more appropriate for commercial properties and large courtyards. I did decide to stop by and check out their selection of garden planters because I want something very specific.
They appear to be going out of business because there is a giant "FOR LEASE" sign prominently displayed and all items are 50% off. If you are looking for tall ceramic planters, (which can be difficult to find), in bold and mixed colors, you may want to check them out. Yes, they had some nice pieces but the specific set of planters that I wanted was not in my landscape colors.
As far as I'm concerned the 50% off just put them at fair market value and the real sale will come once they are marked to 70% off. I love a good deal but I am not inclined to purchase "final sale" items unless they are phenomenally priced. Once you purchase the items, If you don't like how they fit in your landscape, you will have to find a way to make them work into other areas. I decided that I would prefer to purchase where I can exchange or return if necessary because I am inclined to change my mind at times due to size and color.
If you are comfortable with paying a little more for a FINAL purchase, then go for it!
In addition to planters, they have beautiful garden accents like fountains and unique water features. Many of these are in marble and are very heavy. The base of one of the smaller ones was estimated at 650 pounds! No thanks, I need to stick with something that is a bit more portable and I prefer the look of wrought iron because it will not reflect dirt like stone. Again many of these pieces would be appropriate for commercial use or grand estates.
On the other side of the main drive, you will find additional sculptures, (many Asian inspired pieces such as dragons and Buddha) as well as lions, angels and more.
It is an interesting place and if you like it big, bold and interesting you will feel right at home. read more
