Schalow's was both disappointing and interesting. I was expecting to find a nursery with some nice…read moreindoor plants for gifts, but instead found a place specializing primarily in outdoor gardens. There's nothing wrong with that, but it was just disappointing for me. Maybe it was the time of year. Schalow's was interesting in that the selection of outdoor plants was huge. They even had some of the sculpted topiary bushes shaped like animals. Although cute, those topiaries looked like they'd be a lot of work to maintain. I did see some cute outdoor birdbaths and statues to complete the outdoor garden and there was a nice indoor area to pickup smaller items and ask for help from the staff. We were left alone to wander around the grounds, but periodically the employees would ask if we needed help. I like that they weren't pushy.

While in town for a sporting event we asked some locals what we can do in the area. A lot of people…read morerecommended checking out Schalow's Nursery. We went there with three adults and six kids. The kids were excited to see all of the cool outdoor decor and the workers were really kind to them. I think I was more on edge than the workers about the kids getting overly excited. There's a lot of cool indoor and outdoor decor here. This would be a really great place to go for a unique gift. I forgot my wallet at the hotel and needed to be somewhere and the workers were kind enough to hold onto my items for several hours for me. We will definitely stop back again next year when we are in the area again.

This place is so cute! I really love their setup. It's really cool and unique (to me anyways). They…read moresell a lot of different plants and vegetables. I also enjoyed their selection of fairy garden supplies and decorations. All throughout the store they had random fairy garden jars and gardens set up that gave the whole place a magical feel. That would be the best word to describe this place. Magical. If you're on a greenhouse tour, go here!!!

Visited this afternoon. Purchased a beautiful birch tree (a variety that we hadn't seen before)…read moreand beautiful iris (again, something new to us). Plants are very healthy, lush, the grounds and surrounding area are inviting and attractive. We were offered a glass of wine and they even had ice pops for children. There's a gift shop, area for sitting and just enjoying being there. Very pleasant, the staff are friendly and helpful. We weren't planning on buying a tree so we didn't have a truck, but they wrapped it in plastic wrap and were able to put it in our car and we had no trouble transporting it. Very happy with our visit.

The owner, Dave, was eager to please and since I have a large area to landscape, I intend to continue to use Second Nature. One thing I would recommend would be to understand the fees for delivery and planting.

We bought beautiful blooming hydrangeas for our front porch from here and it's absolutely stunning. The pricing is comparable to Lowes but I feel the quality is better. The petals were crisp and bright when Lowe's were browning. This place is not as whimsical as other specialty garden centers. I didn't see a whole lot of stone garden and lawn decor. The employees are helpful and are willing to help you with bringing items to your car.

We had bad experience here. While finishing picking out items in the shop our young child knocked…read moredown an item and cracked it. Before we could address it a young worker grabbed it from us and said, "I'll take that". When this happened were carrying around approximately $75 in items we planned to buy. We also assumed we were going to pay for or offer to pay for the item or son accidentally knocked down. Before we finished shopping the worker returned and told my wife to pay damages or buy the broken sphere. We then left to pay for only the broken item. While trying to pay for damages and leave the interaction with the owner/manager was bad. She was on the phone, then very rude and lacked any awareness of how to manage a situation like this. She was complaining to us and confrontational about her always taking the short end when people broke things. We left upset and insulted. Instead of leaving and buying several items, including the one we broke. We did find another nursery nearby and had a great experience there. I recommend spending your money somewhere else where it's appreciated.

Larry and crew did a great job moving me. I recently moved from Stevens Point to Wisconsin Rapids…read more I have old solid wood heavy furniture, plus lots of "stuff". None of us were very excited about moving but he and his men came ready to work and went right to it. I lived on the 4th floor near to elevator in my Point apt. My Rapids Apt is on the second floor and required stairs. Needless to say it was A LOT of very hard work and Larry worked right along with them. Even with drive time they got it done in a record amount of time, and everything survived without a ding. I can't say enough good things about Larry, and I would hire him again and give highest recommendations without hesitation. T. hanks Larry!
