Their prices are in-line or cheaper than Lowe's, and you can tell that the plants you're buying have been given lots of attention beforehand. One note that might turn some people off: no pets allowed. I don't see this as a negative, but some people might.

Hand and cuticle balm with a warm, clean smell helps cracked and tender cuticles. Looking to start your own herb garden? Let the lovely folks at LFHF get you started with a raised bed and soil.

This place is the best. Super healthy gorgeous looking plants with a ton of variety. Lots of unique chili peppers, berries, herbs, other edibles and native perennials that you won't easily find at other greenhouses in the area. The Australian guy in charge of the plants is also really knowledgeable and nice.

I would definitely recommend coming here before any other generic greenhouse if you're in the area, the variety and quality is simply unmatched. They also seem to run REALLY generous sales fairly often so it's worth stopping by even during the...
