I love going to Molbaks. I'm new to the whole gardening world so when I'm ready to take on a new plant for my yard, I head to Molbaks. I just tell one of the sales people that I am looking for something that goes in the sun/shade/partial sun shade and is low maintenance (always one of my requirements) and they show me to the section that meets that criteria. They'll suggest certain plants based off what I currently have (I bring the little tags so I don't have to remember) and tell me the best way to take care of it. It's like my own gardening lesson each time.
I hear they are bit more expensive than a small nursery, but I think it is worth it. Plus I noticed that they have a sale in the Fall, which I hear is the best time to plant anyway. Oh, and even if you aren't a gardener it is just a fun place to walk around and window shop. They have everything yard-related.
