If you do not have a green thumb, you need to go to Merrifield Garden Center. They have excellent staff who can understand your plans and really give you complete advice about starting a garden, or general landscaping, or just house plants. They are more expensive than a Home Depot type place, but with the higher advice comes a bigger selection, better advice, and higher quality plants. They also have a large selection of advanced ladnscaping implements, like lawn ornaments.
