Visited the nursery last Saturday. It was a beautiful place. The barn, the pond, the turkey, the peacocks, the chickens, the owner, John and oh! the plants - blew us away. This place is a true retreat from the city and only a 10 min drive from Kirkwood. It's a great place to take the kids and while you are there, hike Mt Arabia. We could not tear ourselves away - we stay for 2 hours marveling over the show garden. John is super nice and welcomed us to stay as long as we liked. Check it out.
