Bobby Jo's Plants and Mercantile

Small neighborhood plant boutique specializing in indoor plants, garden accessories, gifts and home decor. The name "Bobby Jo" was my dad's childhood nickname. He taught me how to garden and now has become a lifelong interest and career.

Garden centers and plant nurseries sell annuals, perennials, shrubs, trees, vegetables and houseplants, along with soil, mulch, fertilizer, pots and tools. Independent nurseries often grow part of their own stock and carry varieties that do well in the local climate, while big-box garden departments compete on price for common plants. Wholesale nurseries and growers sell to landscapers and sometimes to the public at volume prices; tree nurseries sell balled-and-burlapped and container trees and can deliver and plant large specimens. Specialty growers focus on bonsai, cactus and succulents, orchids or native plants, and hydroponics stores sell lights, nutrients and systems for growing indoors.

Hours are published for 6 days a week. The most common schedule is 11 am–6 pm. Note that it does not open on Monday.
