Very elegant and amazing place to shop. Cafe’ was very good. Gift’s are spendy but One of a kind.

Michael was incredibly helpful in the tree lot while we were picking out raspberry plants. He was patient through a ton of questions and had a really impressive amount of knowledge about the plants, growing conditions, and what would work best. What stood out most was that if he didn’t know the answer to something, he was honest about it instead of guessing. That kind of honesty and customer service is rare and really appreciated. Overall, it was a great experience and made the whole process much easier and more enjoyable.

I end up going back after I swear I will never return. I have to agree with the other bloggers that the staff at both the Cranberry and DeArmoun Rd locations are about the rudest retailers in town. The problem is that they are the only retailers of products that I do enjoy, See's candy being one of them. I used to take my fuchsias (6 baskets) and begonias (4 baskets) there to winter over. I also used to order annual baskets. I did so for 3 years, paid in the fall. Then one year I went to pick them up and they were hosing them down before they were just left for me to carry to my truck. When I looked at my favorite pink marshmallow (besides the fact that it looked so sickly it should have been thrown away) it was covered, I mean covered in aphids. When I looked at the other plants I found them to be close to the same. I had to stand back in line and was rudely told that "that was why they were hosing them off!! There is a aphid problem this year". I asked about why were they not treated chemically and was told that they didn't use chemicals. Grrrrrr that is what I thought I was paying for!!! I was upset and refused the worst of the 12 baskets (I had 28 new tea roses that I did not need to have exposed the infestation) but was informed that I would still have to pay for them. They did offer to replant the annual baskets that were supposed to "match" but looked as if there was a 2 month growth difference, also insect infested. I did end up with constant treatment of malathion that year, but for the amount of $$$ that I had to pay I would have expected better service for both my plants and a customer. Maybe the sales staff should be on commission, they would be more helpful and friendly. Oh... btw, the "back staff" has always very helpful, although it is helpful that I can speak Spanish :-)
