out of the way...out of the ordinary

These plants grow well in pots placed on your patio or balcony.  Many are hard-to-find tropical plants that thrive in our sunny climate.  Once winter comes, they can be brought in and grown as houseplants or placed in a dark basement to hold until spring.  We carry Red Bananas, Angel's Trumpets, Taro and unusual Coleus, as well as annuals and herbs.
