I came to buy perennials. I have a big project. I have been all over the NorthShore buying plants. Pesche's has beautiful health plants. Staff was helpful and knowledgeable. The selection is good not amazing. I found around 15 plants, in June, 20% off, pleasant surprise. Much healthier than chain stores and more reasonably priced than some specialty nurseries. I am sorry I did not come there first. I did not look at annuals. I will next year! I do recommend pointing out with signage native growing plants.

I have been going to Pesche's for many years and this is always my first choice to get flowers and vegetable plants. They have great variety and unbeatable prices on seasonal small plants. However, the rest of the items in the store are on the pricier side. Staff has always been very helpful and goes out of the way to answer questions.

Wow.never seen so many plants anywhere! This place is huge. It keeps going and going. Everything gardening and landscaping. Very unique items at reasonable prices. Discount store.wm.may be cheaper but you'll definitely find what you need here. Almost every staff person asked if I found everything OK and were very happy to answer any questions. I had a great conversation with an employee about perennials and just the enjoyment and beauty of gardening.very friendly. I will definitely return.

Just discovered Pesche's last summer. This place is awesome. They have a huge selection of plants during the growing season. But I loved coming here for the holidays. They had so many nice ornaments. The store was also easy to navigate. I brought a loved one in a wheelchair and it was very easy to shop around unlike some other stores that cram everything into narrow aisles. Our cashier also gift wrapped all our ornaments which was great. Not many stores are willing to add that special touch anymore. I will definitely be returning.

We needed artificial flowers for my mother who has Alzheimer's and cannot properly care for living plant/flowers. I was also in a rush to make a purchase and run out to meet mom and the family for lunch. The two women who work in the flower section came to our rescue and made up this beautiful spring colored arrangement. They had it ready to go in ten minutes. Professional, attentive, talented, and great customer service. I was so impressed! Thank you for saving the day.

The company that I work for purchases plants from Pesches every season to put in-front of our showroom doors. This fall season we purchased mums and was disappointed to find them dying after a week of having them. I contacted the manager via email and waited 4 days before getting a response, after getting nowhere via email I called the store and was told they wouldn't even be able to give us a credit because of how much time has past. $60 worth of mums shouldn't be dying in a week and if they do you should offer a credit to purchase more flowers. I purchase plants from this place every year. every season. Unfortunately, after the lack of customer service we will not be back which is a shame.

Love everything about this place! Flowers are beautiful and they have everything I need to get my yard in order for the summer. Sometimes I just like to walk around and get my steps in while listening to an audiobook! They also have the cutest little gift shop with fake flowers and little gifts, yard statues etc

I absolutely love gardening season and visiting Pesches! My mom and I excitedly filled our cart with a variety of flowers, with the goal of creating our own potted assortments at home in our backyard. I love the huge selection of vibrant, high quality healthy plants to choose from! You can tell that the workers really enjoy what they do and are very helpful!
