What a hidden gem for any plant enthusiast!
I'll be honest...this place is very difficult to find, to the point where I almost threw my hands up in the air and said "FORGET IT!" after 5-10 minutes of driving around and no real luck finding the place. When you turn down Foster Rd, turn right into the first driveway (you'll see a small "plant store" sign staked in the ground - there's also a sign talking about goat pictures or something??) and you'll park in that first parking lot. You'll see another "plant store" sign but it points towards a driveway that's chained off - just park in that lot and walk. You'll take a right behind the building and walk across this little bridge to, what looks like, an abandoned building (I believe the sign says 8-9) and on the far right there's a little staircase that goes down and the store is right there. Or if you turn into the 2nd driveway and park, you can walk up the stairs of the 8-9 building and find the little staircase on the other side of the porch. Again, this is not an easy spot to find...but I promise it's worth it.
It's a really small shop, but you walk in and it's just FILLED with plants! They have several gram-worthy photo op spots in the store as well, so if you're into that sort of thing definitely take a moment to snap a few shots. They've got the place pumped full of some sort of aromatherapy and it's honestly so soothing and totally fits the vibe of the place. They have stuff ranging from small handheld cacti to large and full floor plants. Now I'll be honest...I can kill succulents, so I was nervous about what kind of plants to buy. The two folks working the shop were so friendly and helpful, especially when I came busting through the door and said "what are the lowest maintenance plants you got?!". They pointed me right to the ones that were super difficult to kill and even gave me a few tips/tricks to keeping my little guys alive and thriving. My biggest eye opener was the pricing - now I'm no plant enthusiast, but when I walked out the door with a decent sized snake plant in a pretty pot and another low-maintenance plant with a pretty flower bloom for $18...I felt like I basically robbed the place. I feel like the prices are ridiculously reasonable!
If you're a big plant person....I would DEFINITELY say this place is worth checking out! read more
