This nursery has been a long time favorite of mine. I used to frequent it often when it was at the other location on South Boulevard, but now that it's in Pineville, it is a little less convenient. I had such a good experience there today that I am going to frequent Grower's Outlet for all of my plant needs.
The property is large and features a wide variety of plants. There is better parking at this location than at the original store. I carry my Southern Living plant book so that I can read about the plants and determine if they are ones that I want. Grower's Outlet also offers an assortment of pots and planters.
I like the owner and am always treated politely. He called me "sweetie" today. I like that. There was another man who greeted me in a warm manner and asked if he could help.
Grower's Outlet also has two resident cats. One is black and named Nightwatch. She is 17 years old. There is also a 10 year old tabby, whose name I am unsure of. They are both friendly and loving. Bless the owner for giving them a home. He even gets the vet to come to the business to give the cats their shots.
Big box stores are fine, but they don't feature the ambiance that Grower's Outlet has. It's a bit like a rustic oaradise that's always in bloom.
