I found the Garden Plus website two years ago and have become a frequent visitor. The grounds are lovely and Dawn carries a lot of plant varieties that I haven't been able to find in other Peterborough (and surrounding area) garden centres. Dawn is also great to provide advice and recommendations.

I have been very happy with the help I have received at Gardens Plus. I have bought a number of perennials- ferns, hostas, prairie smoke, echinacea etc - and all have done well. The advice given has been wonderful. My order for prairie smoke was fulfilled and I was able to pick them up with ease when notified. As I expand my gardens I will keep returning to Gardens Plus! Thank you.

I received a large bowl of various perennials when my Mom passed away in 2012 and to this day all of them are still thriving. 6 years ago I started a memory garden to honour my husband and I purchased some more and they are doing great as well. The perennials from here are the best!

Very happy with my experience with Garden Plus last year. All the perennials I bought were healthy and happy. You can see some of them in the photo: lovely lolly coneflower (what a beauty!!!) bush clematis, coreopsis moonbeam. I've ordered more this spring and can't wait to go browsing in person!
