Staff is congenial and although they’re always tending to plants- they will take time to assist or direct your search for just the right treasures for you garden! Healthy strong plants and nice selection! Buy… Local - and a visit to AVB is like a mini vacation! So Wonderful as we are currently “restricted” in the things we can do!!! 🏝
