| - Prairie Gardens might as well be a Champaign IL attraction. It's a huge store that blends seamlessly with a giant greenhouse. Inside that greenhouse lies the most colorful and varied flowers of so many colors--pinks, reds, orange, yellow, blue, purple, white, and combinations. Giant banana plants with green leaves twice the size of your head, trees, ferns...Stepping into that area, you can see the sky through transparent sheets high overhead. The place is clean, a bit humid, and very fresh and bright. It's like a vacation almost. Stepping outside that greenhouse lies yet another area with lilac pond plants and little fishes in one of the tanks.
The store area is also pretty much an interior home decorating area. They have wooden tables, chairs, ceramic painted plates (which are gorgeous), and even a little arts and crafts area with various stickers, scrapbooking materials...near the greenhouse area lies assortments of seeds for birds, seeds for planting and things to accentuate your garden with. Seriously, the question is "what don't they carry".
