Now in its sixth year, this west-end garden shop has inspired a passionate local following. Customers are charmed as much by the kitschy wall plaques as they are by the store’s selection of functional goods. A delightful fish spurts bubbles into an ornate basin of cast concrete ($649). Artful concrete bird feeders start at $49. And for those who prefer to sit rather than dig, check out the locally crafted concrete checker and backgammon sets ($200). In summer, a garden featuring a century-old climbing hydrangea hosts a range of trellises, benches, fountains, dining sets and pots. Outdoor seat cushions (from $29) in fetching floral prints can withstand rain or shine. Children’s gardening gloves are cheerfully adorned with ladybugs.
