Rice Road Greenhouses and Garden Centre

Amazing place to browse. Gifts, decor and of course there are lots of high quality plants.
I stopped by for a snack at The Palms.

This is a good place for all your planting needs. They have lots to choose from. Is at its best for a few weeks around the may 24 weekend when everything is vibrant. Prices are reasonable for the plants. They also sell pots and accessories. Hours of operation are very good. They are generally open later than any other green houses.
Also a great place for stone and mulch.

I came for the plants, but there is an amazing coffee bar just inside the main door!

Palms Coffee Bar - great coffee and some pastries. And a shelf of books to peruse!

I had the peanut butter and chocolate latte - designed by the owner - and the lemon oat bun. Wonderful!

Next, I’ll wander through the great variety of plants!

Very large, well -maintained facility with many, many plants. This place is massive and has many choices for your garden as well as premade planters. There is an abundance of trees, greenery and perennials. As well, they carry succulents and tropical plants for indoors, and annuals when in season.

There is a great gift shop in the front with a small Cafe. As well, you will find planters, pots and a accessories for the garden.

Even though I have visited quite a few times, I had never walked to the back of the property. I decided to check it out today and was surprised to find an enclosure with chickens, ducks and peacocks, as well as a small pond with a fountain.

Definitely worth a visit!
