Our daughter is really into butterflies right now and I wanted to find a butterfly habitat that was close to our home. I was pleasantly surprised to find this place very conveniently close by. The workers have been very helpful and kind to us on every visit. The habitat is a beautiful place to sit and admire the butterflies and flora. There is a koi pond next to the butterfly habitat. Children may feed the fish with fish food obtained from at the checkout booth at the entrance. Finding this sweet spot has been a highlight of the summer, even if we discovered it close to the end of their summer season. We will definitely be back in the spring for the butterflies and probably also in the fall to check out the holiday selection.
Lovely! Dragged my kids with me to get flowers and they never wanted to leave! They saw some awesome butterflies (one of the workers even showed them caterpillars) and they were given fish food so they could feed the fish and turtles in the pond! There was even a block area where they could play while I checked out and loaded the car!The flowers were lovely too and well priced. Great variety and everything looked healthy. Lots of space to move around and look. Great experience.
Been going to Barsons for 20yrs! They care are professional great selection of healthy plants. Pond people love this place, koi fish & supplies everything you need. All kinds of water garden supplies.They have a butterfly house. Go & see.Get some pepper plants. Small dainty plants to enormous plants. Wind chimes gnome stuff for little gnome gardening.Something for everyone! Ill be back again soon!
Small selection, high prices, overall not shopper friendly place to visit. Pushing the cart through gravel and countless water lines on the ground, and and water soakers hitting your head from above is a workout in itself. The salesperson was nice and talkative, so theres that.
My go-to friendly, local seller. They have a great selection of perenials, annuals and I love their native plants and prices. Always try to find what you need here first...and enjoy the fish and the butterflies during your visit.I always come home with an extra plant or two if i come here ...
Took my daughter. She had a blast. She brought along her son. He had a blast! Even brought significant other. She also had a blast. I spent no money. THEY spent a little. But, they left with a lot!Its bigger, on the inside. I promise. Just because it doesnt look like a police box, doesnt mean it isnt a really goood Time and Relative Dimension In Space. Everyone WHO went, had a sound time!
Just love the butterfly house. Such a wonderful job was done making it. Shopping hear is stress free and peaceful. So many beautiful things to look at. The staff is very knowledgeable and always polite. And I have one of the prettiest houses on the block thanks to all the beautiful flowers and bushes I have purchased their.
Excellent nursery and garden center. They have a great selection of plants and aquatic garden supplies. Very knowledgeable staff and reasonably priced.I originally gave a 4 star review after only one trip and that wasnt fair because theyve proven to excel in customer service every time I visit. I now rarely go anywhere else for my gardening needs.
Family run business. Great part of the local community.I have trouble walking around to pick out plants.Sales people will bring plants to me and help put them into my car. Very helpful with questions and planning ideas. Big nursery. Very nice Butterfly House on site. Beautiful and educational open to all.
This place is beautiful and I often treat it as a conservatory to enjoy the surroundings before buying what I came for and usually more! The staff is exceptionally friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. If it is not clear that I will be returning often, then my review has been misinterpreted. 😊
I drove by this place so many times. Ive already gone twice in the last month and they have been very helpful prices are very reasonable and Ive already mentioned it to a few people are ready and Im going to keep continuing to go there. The thing is if you have questions they pretty much know the answers to very nice people.
I have been purchasing vegetables for my garden from here for many years now. This is a great low key local nursery with reasonable prices. The crops are always nice and grown. It has a beautiful green house with a large pond and many turtles some time of the year and it also has a butterfly garden too.
Barsons has become an important part of our holiday traditions. We look forward to choosing our Barson Christmas tree every year.Pros:- Trees are hung so that you can fully examine them for fullness. Its quite charming since it creates a little forest.- Trees last the whole season with proper care and watering.- Prices are competitive with u-pick farms, without the hassle of tromping through acres of trees that arent symmetrical, cutting it down, dragging it back.- Barsons sells the necessary accessories for your tree, like stands.- Staff is friendly and helpful.Cons:- There really arent any.Suggestions:As someone who likes to get the most out of the holiday season, it would make me incredibly happy if they starting making their trees available sometime in the week before Thanksgiving. I like to decorate the tree the week before, and have previously gotten our tree elsewhere since the other place was open sooner, and I was impatient/excited. I regretted it, for both hassle, quality of tree, and price point.
Very nice people, we went for the butterfly release, they had animal balloons & face painting. My 7 year old son had a ball. They have a pond with fish and turtles and they provide food for the fish for FREE! Naturally they also have a small green house with butterflies of different types. He had so much fun he talked about it all weekend. We will be back if only for the butterfly house.
Went there to help a good friend to pick out some flowers and was pleasantly surprised. Everyone there was very polite and helpful and they actually had the best prices Ive ever seen. I live in the other direction of town and use different greenhouses for my needs and they are not as reasonable as Barsons. Barsons also had a wonderful selection and are easy to access.
Love Barsons Greenhouse. I come here for anything related to my pond or caterpillars as they have plants and supplies for both. Their staff is well educated in the plants/supplies that they sell. So if youre not sure about plants or just have a question regarding gardening, theyre the ones to ask. They have a great selection of plants as well.
I was able to plant a certified butterfly garden last year thanks to Barsons wide array of butterfly plants. I have gone back several times this year to purchase more of the Rue plant to continue feeding my caterpillars inside. I would never of had the success with rearing all of my caterpillars without their commitment to these types of plants. They are friendly, knowledgeable and they will stop whatever they are doing to answer any of your questions.
Barson Greenhouse always delivers!! Man, I love this place!! The plethora of plants, DIY tools, garden decor and the wide variety of seeds makes this greenhouse second to none!!!Its a bit early in the season and I cannot wait to go back in full season and grab more goodies!!!Please go here whether you are a greenthumb or not!!!
The butterfly house is a wonderful place, but I am extremely displeased with the garden center. My husband explained that we were creating a catnip area in our yard for our cats, and themes sold us professional growing mix soil that specifically says avoid breathing the dust, avoid contact with eyes, open sores, cuts, wash hands thoroughly after use. Keep away from pets and children. I immediately scooped my cats out of it and washed them down. When we contacted them, Barson’s response was “that’s just being overly cautious.” If I’m asking the professional for advice, I would expect what you recommend for my cats doesn’t have a warning that says keep away from pets and children. I will not purchase from here again. 😡 If I could give it 0 stars I would.Update: While I can understand the owner’s response below, the issue is that the decision as to what I expose my cats to should ultimately be mine. Barson’s should have informed me that the packaging has a warning, then he was free to give me his opinion and I could make a decision. As it was, we couldn’t see the warning on the package as they were stacked and they loaded them directly to the vehicle. Because the response on the phone when we called to complain was simply that essentially society is paranoid about the product, I ended up spending additional money to buy plain topsoil from somewhere else.
Spent over $1000 on fish, water plants and other various plants and chemicals for koi pond. Sold fish that had diseases, my 3 year old pond that had perfectly healthy koi were now diseased by his fish. Horrible customer service, Joe, blamed me, wouldnt give refund or even offer another fish, He told me he was out of the fish business. Well, he wont have my business anymore. He gives HORRIBLE customer service and berates the customer,.

2022-05-16OUTSTANDING for pond plants!!!! Seriously, its only mid may and while other stores dont bother with pond plants until after the holiday, Barsons is loaded up!As far as prices go, a medium potted water lily with 5 to 7 big leaves is currently $34.99 and today there were pink or white to choose from.I believe baby cattails were around $9.99 and most of the smaller pond plants were about the same price.I got GOREGOUS water iris for around $12 I believe. This iris is HUGE and mega healthy.Barsons is a huge place. Its the biggest local plant store that I am aware of. Their selection is so incredible that you are bound to find what you want.Even if youre not sure what you want, its a beautiful heaven of sights and smells. You could come spend an hour marveling at Gods creations!

2022-06-26Was driving by and saw the sign of the butterfly exhibit was open.Small parking lot so I wasnt sure what to expect.Its much much larger than the parking lot hints at.While walking in I was greeted twice with friendly smiles.Found a huge koi pond.And a fantastic assortment of butterfly plants near the enclosure. Much more plants than Ive seen elsewhere in the last two yearsInside the exhibit was a very knowledgeable lady giving advice, trading stories and answering questions with patience and wisdom.A huge volume of butterflies and caterpillars. They even gave away caterpillars with plants. It was educational and Ill be back soon.

2022-05-07Such an amazing greenhouse! They have a TON of unique plants that I havent been able to find elsewhere. Plus, the Monarch Butterfly house and specific plants to help them thrive. Their prices are fair for the quality of plants youll buy!

2022-05-23What a beautiful place! I am really impressed with the options they have available. They have a lot of different flowers & lots of decorative planters to really make your yard pop! If you want to create your own decorative planter, they have pots and dirt available too :)

2022-05-28My family has been coming here for decades for all our gardening needs! Joe and Deb can be found here and are always quick with a solution to our landscaping quandaries! Visit the butterflies and pick up a hanging basket or flat of flowers! You wont be disappointed!

2022-04-28Large selection of plants, helpful and friendly staff, easy to access location. I did not see any typical garden plants (tomatoes, peppers, squash) but the variety of flowering plants is impressive.
