Big box stores sell the same plants all over the country so their tags are usually wrong. “Full Sun” means something very different in Charleston than it does in Ohio, yet both stores will get the same plant with the same tag. Most boutique stores get fully grown plants from the same grower in Savannah, Oelschig.

Because we grow our own plants you’ll be able to get unique, rare varieties of plants for the same price the big box stores charge you for common varieties. Not only that, but the plants will already be acclimated to Charleston’s climate.
