Fertile Gardens

Fertile Gardens is a great city spot mostly for annuals of which they usually have a wonderful selection encompassing lots of out-of-the-ordinary plants. Perennial selection not terribly extensive or impressive. I rarely find anything in the perennial department I have to have (or don't already have), and that's saying a mouthful. Tree and shrub selection, though, is pretty darned good for such a small city nursery. Supplies, remedies, tools: pretty basic. Nice people, though, and convenient location for north siders. Definitely worth the trip for the annuals and the best of the small neighborhood garden centers.
