If you want great customer friendly service DO NOT go to Demer's. The ladies that work in the garden center are rude, miserable and unhelpful. I have been several times in need of advice on gardening matters and not once have they been helpful or polite. As much as I like, and do support local business I refuse to spend anymore money at Demer's. I would much rather go to Lowe's or Home Depot. At least there you know you will be greeted with a "hello" and a smile and even though they may not know certain things in certain areas of expertise at least they are willing to find the answers for you in a polite friendly enthusiastic manner and at half the price!
As far as the plants go, yes they are good but so too are the ones sold in the big stores. I've never had a problem buying plants from any of the bigger known home stores.
