Brush and Blooms 505 North Main Street, Thiensville, WI 53092

"Excellent place to find unusual perennials for our area. The owners are nice. Lots of gift items for all seasons. Their homemade caramel apples are delicious!"

"This place is a great source for gardening needs. They are also really good at educating you towards the goals you want to achieve. One time they didn't have mulch when I was looking for some but recommended a solid source for it and it worked out perfectly."

"Bought three lilac bushes from here last year for Mother's Day. Planted, watered, fed, etc and they never grew or blossomed. Fast forward to this spring, and they haven't grown at all. Called about getting some sort of refund or replacement, as they were NOT cheap, and was told very rudely, there was no guarantee. I'll take my future business elsewhere."

"Smaller scale with a great variety of quality nursery stock including natives. Top notch experienced, knowledgeable staff. Valerie took the time to talk and answered all my questions. As an add-on, last visit I was directed to the owner with my plant question. She was an older woman who was extremely unfriendly. She replied to my hello with a grunt! Avoid her at all costs! She could learn alot by listening to her younger employees who are always professional & eager to help."

"Sometimes help is hard to find, ask for Emily if you are not sure of your product. Know what you want, great. The store inside is chocked full of items, if you or a child has sensitive hearing then don't go on windy day, the wind chimes are deafening. The chimes are right by front door and are LOUD. Prices are a little high, but for the location and the lack of competition they can be. They have the biggest selection of succulents, over 30 different kinds, some I have only seen at the Domes in Milwaukee. Our school (Morningside Montessori) puts in a wall garden every year, and the succulents are always very nice and people comment on the looks of the different plants."
