Update 9-26-07
Alas, this small store has closed its doors. Now you have to go to the rather overblown, decidedly NOT charming store in the University Village.
A smaller "outpost" of the store that has also a very conspicuous presence in University Village (home to Restoration Hardware, etc.) but with a small, dedicated, gracious, low-key staff.
I have only purchased a couple of pots of herbs but both times were pleasant experiences. Both times the staff were very helpful.
Nice to have on the Avenue at the top instead of an Eagle Hardware, one of a number of "miniature" shops (The Teacup, Cafe Ladro, Video Isle) with a distinctive character that add to the charm of the neighborhood--especially now that Molbak's, City People's Mercantile, etc. have by the wayside.
Hope this business stays here!
