Green Arrow Nursery is an extremely well run and somewhat retro garden store that also stocks hardware, Christmas decorations, garden books and many (discounted) fountains. It has a personal and idiosyncratic style with big green signs that point customers to aisles: “FERTILIZER” and “BIRD FOOD” are but two of many. Staff is friendly, bi-lingual and courteous.

There are red wagons for shoppers to haul their plants around, and there is an attractive and logical way that the merchandise is arranged. Shade plants are under the shaded areas, Mexican pots are in another area, the perennials are all together, as are vegetables, roses, bulbs, herbs and indoor plants.

It is one of the joys of living in Southern California that the planting season here begins just when the rest of our nation enters winter.
