The staff was incredibly helpful and know their stuff! Their selection is huge and they take care of their plants- I saw 3 different employees watering plants in just the hour that I was there! Not to mention, they have a year warranty on all their plants, which I did not realize until after I got home. Highly recommend and will be returning myself.
