To-Mar Garden Center 7600 Fortson Road, Columbus, GA 31909

"Highly recommend!!! In this day and age, of huge super stores, I find that personal touch and care, is highly lacking. While I love researching about appropriate plants for this area of Georgia, my knowledge base, is also lacking. Mark, the owner of To-Mar Garden Center, is passionate about his business and puts excellent customer care, first. As a veterinarian, I love to research about topics in my career, so I was delighted to see how excited Mark got, when talking about appropriate plants. He is goes to plant shows, to increase his knowledge base and is up to date on the new plants, scientists have created. Mark just goes the extra mile for his customers. I feel so much respect for him, that I just told him to pick out the right plants, this spring, for my rock and butterfly/hummingbird garden. It’s unusual for me, to not try to control everything. But this man is an expert on plant types and care. I trust him to make my butterfly garden, a thriving piece of meditation and enjoyment. I am so excited, for spring to come, to finish this little area of peace and tranquility. Right now, Mark has put the river rock down, which is step one. Please consider Mar and TO-MAR garden center for all your plants and yard landscaping design. In this day and age of inflation and uncertain times, I feel that it is really important to support your community privately owned businesses. So many of them folded after COVID. LETS KEEP OUR PRIVATELY OWNED BUSINESSES ALIVE. Support them. You won’t be sorry, Mark is incredible. He is an amazing source of plant knowledge. P Walker, Fortson, GA"

"I really like this store. They have plants I haven’t seen anywhere else around here. A large selection. The staff is friendly also. My only suggestion is that they change their Saturday hours on Google to show that they close at 4:45pm. I was there at 4:35 and the cashier told me he was closing the cash register in 10 minutes. Edit: I went there again today at 5:15pm on a weekday and they said that they close at 5:30pm, not 6:00pm as Google says. It’s probably safest not to go here any time near the opening or closing time just in case."

"The ladies are so helpful, pleasant and knowledgeable. We went to get plants for a butterfly garden. I had a list. Although the didn't have all the plants that were on my list, they made great suggestions on other pollinators that will attract the butterflies. Reasonably priced and beautiful plants. Highly recommended To-Mar!"

"Excellent garden center tucked away off of Veterans Hwy! The employees were so wonderful as was the selection. They had everything I needed!"

"I was really happy when I found this garden center. They carry a large variety of bedding plants. I come here every fall to buy violas because they have one of the largest selections in the area. They have interesting shrubs, too, as well as perennials and houseplants. A good selection of chemicals and fertilizers can be found inside."
