I’m envious--I wish we had something like this in central Florida. In the ‘90s in Longwood, a suburb on Orlando’s north end, we had a small nursery chain called White Rose. It was probably the size of an old-school Walmart, indoor and outdoor, and it had a great collection of plants and gardening stuff. We had two smaller private nurseries on the same street, so you could always find what you were looking for. Then they bulldozed the White Rose for a self storage place, and the two other nurseries became drive-through fast food places. Now if you want plants, you pretty much just go to Home Depot or Lowe’s. I hope your beautiful plant store stays in business a long long time. It sounds idyllic.
I lived in NoVA for two and a half years from 2016 to 2018, and drove by this place on my way home from work everyday. You cannot really see how big it is from the street; you have to go into the store to get a good understanding of its size.
