The history of the dedication this family has had to nurturing water lilies throughout the world and Ive had to rip conversations know theyve been all over this world for the most part, its felt the moment you put 1 foot down on the stand of the over 110 years this family has been on Long Island dedicating themselves to the craft the creation the incubation of water lilies. Look up water lilies and youll understand the background behind them . Every time I am there I know I am in reverence to those in the family that are now veiled by the curtain of our other states of consciousness .you can feel the energy if you sit by the water Lily Pond up front if you get to walk the grounds a bit to look at the beautiful stones and crystals and mineral rocks I swear I can see the nymphs energy watching over each Lilly. The current son presiding over the care Bobby , is an amazing family historian. He has meticulously put together the happenings since his family came to Long Island via a few different routes. I feel like Im stepping back in time and yet the same time you see what could be a future beautiful cooperative perhaps of people who put their hands in the soil and then the water and then over their own heads and feel the connection to mother earth. I keep waiting to see this place become a historical as well as practical tour that actually shows people what it is to live off the land and what it would takes to bring this world back in alignment by choosing peace of mind and become as we once were people who lived along side One another inspiring each other to be our passions and also each contributing to every aspect of the world so that whatever you need you have it ,there is enough! Go to the grocery and stay a while and he will feel enough will not walk out of there feeling need but what you will walk out of there is peace of mind understanding of nature and a blessing if you get to be happy as he shares his wonderful stories of the land the lilies in their travels The beautiful memories growing up knowing your heritage so well and knowing this is all just us putting our hands into the soil so we might create. By the way Im very verbose but I love this place you will to bring up photography class bring your students bring your kids for your grandmothers.

Stopped in today to pick up a water lily for Dads fish pond. I was immediately faced with a friendly greeting and a smiling face. They showed me around and were super helpful. I really appreciate the customer service here. I highly recommend!!

I was really unsure of how to fix a leak in a pond we inherited in a newly purchased home, and when I called for advice, I was walked through the entire process. I was impressed with their knowledge and thankful for their patience, and when I purchased some materials an hour later after traveling to the store, I was taken back by the kindness and friendliness of each person I spoke with.

Fantastic Customer Service!! First they tried to fix my pond pump before selling me a new one. When the new one stopped working 2 years later, they looked up my receipt and replaced it on the spot under the mfg warranty. No problem. When I bought an extra piece that I didnt need, they swapped it for me instantly with something I could use instead. Wow, Ive forgotten what good service is even like. Ive also bought plants over the years that did well. They also have a beautiful variety of waterlily plants.

When it comes to purchasing pond products/supplies, pond plants, and pond fish ... these are the people to work with. Theyre exceptionally customer-focused, friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. I cant say enough good things. I simply would not and will not purchase pond plants and pond fish anywhere else. Even if I lived 1 hour away, it would be worth the drive.

Ive been dealing with them for years. They have an amazing selection of water plants for ponds and many koi and goldfish. When I need help with our pond they are my go-to source.
