Love Cottage Gardens for a variety of natives and veggie starts. I started with them when the founder couple opened in a different location many moons ago. This spot is beautiful and their plants are well cared for. My zone is 10A up the coast but I never walk away from this place empty handed.😂
(Props for being dressed in Giants Orange and Black haha.) I've told my husband, who never knows what to buy me for a gift, "Just go to Cottage Gardens. I'll love ANYTHING you buy there."
I live 10 minutes from Cottage Gardens but don’t go that often. I didn’t know they grew all their veggies. You convinced me to go back regularly. Maybe I’ll see you next time!!!
This has been my go-to garden center for 20 years - thanks for featuring Cottage Gardens today! We buy all of our veggies here. Such a helpful staff too.
I knew I wasn’t the only one! Please Janey before you do another interview style video get another microphone. You are a VERY good interviewer. Unfortunately we can’t hear the guest 😊
I have heard those microphones are really expensive … but what helps me is to put in my headphones. I can hear much better then. Thanks Janie for all you do!
I came to say the exact same. I feel like they have a lot to offer but I can’t hear anything they say or it just sounds like mumbles. I like the interviews but would love to hear what they have to say.
I came here to ask the same thing. I have to turn the volume on my headset up so high to hear the other people, that it distorts Janey voice. I'm very hard of hearing and the headset helps with other UA-cam videos I watch. I tried turning on captions, but they don't make much sense. I love videos with Robbie, absolutely love him!!
H I! I've been following your channel for awhile, but am a new subscriber. I live in Rohnert Park ( zone 9B), and Cottage Gardens is my go to garden center. I was so excited to have tuned in and you were there! They have the best plants, best garden art and kindest most helpful staff. ❤
I wish I lived closer so I could visit that beautiful nursery. It reminds me of Blue Moon Gardens in Edom Tx. They have unique plants and a large selection hand made garden art. I can’t wait to see the next video.
If I had endless pockets of money, I'd buy a ticket to cross the country to visit that garden center, hopefully I could meet you there. Thanks for visiting, and I agree, Fionuala was fun to listen to.
This is exactly why I love watching your channel, Janey. I have marked Cottage Gardens of Petaluma on my Google Maps and now I have a fun new field trip to take with my gardening friends. thank you.
I shop at Cottage Gardens too. It is so beautiful and well-staged that you want to buy everything. Wish I could take a sandwich and just sit in the middle of it and take it all in!
Found this garden center years ago and it's truly everything you said the staff is wonderful there. Never had a bad experience just bliss.Happy gardening the problem is always trying to decide what to buy.
Thank you! This is now on my list to visit in the next couple weeks. Petaluma also has a Baker's Creek seed bank downtown - Will have to make a day of it!
There’s something about gardening and antiquing they seem to go hand in hand. I just realized the gardeners I follow most also enjoy thrifting or shopping for antiques! ❤
Omg!!! Welcome to my hood. Fionuala is exactly as you described. Her staff and her are awesome. The best time to go is early morning (when they open). Hardly no one there and it’s such a special treat. I normally go once a week. I’m always expanding on those unique touches for my garden (10 acres). I know you love sweet peas… you need to come back in the spring to see her wall of color and sweet aroma. Welcome. 🎉
Beautiful place, and it’s nice to see green things when it’s so cold & snowy here in NH. Also, you’re so lucky to have an “enabler” in your life who loves gardening as much as you do😆 Many of us have friends & family members who question whether we really need so many plants, seeds… You two are fun to watch!
How beautiful!!! May need to make a trip to Petaluma now. Have you been to Alden Lane nursery in Livermore yet?? If not please check it out. It’s always been one of my favorite places.
Great tour ! Love that place so much ,I love that I don’t think of anything else when watching your videos , when you guys are together it’s hilarious 😆
I am also from Santa Rosa and Sebastopol. I used to work in Petaluma. I love Somoza county. I miss it. But close enough to go often. I will be going to that nursery next time I am there.
I am so so jealous. What an amazing garden center. The garden art is as wonderful as all of the plants. I would go broke if that was near me. I live in Wisconsin.
What a beautiful garden center! You and Robbie need to have a contest with those Fabio beans to see who’s plant grows the biggest! Winner winner chicken dinner! 😂🤣🙌🏼
Love to see nursery visits and this one is a very special and unique one! We are having a snowstorm (nb, canada) and so seing these plants is a gift! Would love to see it again in the spring! :)
I so need to find something like this in So Cal. I keep telling my husband we need to make a weekend trip and come see all these amazing garden centers by you. And yes, bring the truck. LOL
I get my coffee, turn on computer and pull up your video for the day first thing almost every morning! My bff lives in Davis and I have made a list for her to visit all the places you go to. Michael is actually doing her backyard now. She loves him. How fun is that! I can't wait to visit her this summer as maybe we can have you over for lunch to see her backyard or we can bring lunch to you and visit your property. from Texas...debby
I wonder who was the radio dj on your fun road trip. 🎶 That garden center is a gardener’s paradise!! How on earth did you two have so much self-restraint and not leave with a truck full of plants?! My gardening hats off to you both!! 😊🇨🇦
Janey-I now how much you love visiting various nurseries. Next time you’re in Washington state you have to visit Valley Nursery in Poulsbo. I’ll take you!
Ok Janey I’m obsessed now! I’m 2 hours away and I’m going out there asap! Thanks for doing these tours so we can be inspired for our spring gardens! I’m also going to take a trip to The Primitive Barn that Pamela toured! I can’t wait for this gardening year!🎉🎉🎉
Great time , anytime we get to be with you and Robbie. That place is magical. I'm telling my best friend who lives by San Francisco , Rodeo . Saddly i live in central IL, talk about bleak. It is bleak here.
I can't believe that neither of you bought any of those amazing balls, or any of the other decor items like those metal pinecones and/or flowers! I need to get out there to shop!
This is my absolute favorite nursery!!! We drive a hour and 20 mins to get there and it’s beyond worth it. It’s so charming. It’s always where I want to go for my birthday. Or anytime. Lol
I was going to mention this place to you to see if you’d been there yet! We went recently and it’s sooo cute! I wish it was closer to me. Oh well, I guess I’ll just have to plan more vacations with my husband based on garden center locations 🤫
Hi Janey, Cottage Gardens is one of my favs! A great place to walk around and get ideas for decor display. It has the best selection and prices of roses. I'm not so patiently waiting for the David Austins to arrive.
Great tour, Janey and Robbie be careful where you plant the Fava beans, they among other beans can be very toxic to dogs if they eat them raw or leaves/stems. I grow all my toxic plant varieties in my front yard where my dogs don't roam so it's safe to grow them there out of reach. All those veggies and lettuces make me want to make a salad :)
Jealous!!! Would love to go there! Amazing garden, so much to see. I hope you go back in Spring. Janey, you can make your own cement balls and planters, look it up on utube, pintrist for pointers. I think you need some in front of your office and zigzag planters. You have so many places they would look great! Would love Fava beans, have only grown scarlet runners. Love vinning/climbing plants . Would love the roses, but sooo expensive! Enjoy your antiquing, wouldn't mind seeing that either!
Yay, I have been dying to go to Cottage Gardens, it is on my calendar for this year. This sneak peek was so fun. Fine Gardening is one of my favorite garden magazines too! I am on the hunt for some tree roses and one called Raspberry Cupcake so I see a trip looming for me. If you want a muddy rose that is gorgeous and blooms better than Distant Drums go with Koko Loko instead. Honey Dijon has been on my list for awhile. The little plant in the rocks by the table and chairs looks like Elfun Thyme, it makes a great groundcover.
Hi Janey🌺 . Wonderful tour in this place all the plants looks amazing and this dahlia tree looks so pretty l will look for it . Have awonderful day .🌻🌺🌻
Love Cottage Gardens for a variety of natives and veggie starts. I started with them when the founder couple opened in a different location many moons ago. This spot is beautiful and their plants are well cared for. My zone is 10A up the coast but I never walk away from this place empty handed.😂

My mouth was totally dropped open when you showed that tree dahlia! Deanna
This has been my go-to garden center for 20 years - thanks for featuring Cottage Gardens today! We buy all of our veggies here. Such a helpful staff too.
I just love it when you have guests, but is it possible to have them use a mike? It is very hard to hear them at times.
I knew I wasn’t the only one! Please Janey before you do another interview style video get another microphone. You are a VERY good interviewer. Unfortunately we can’t hear the guest 😊
I have heard those microphones are really expensive … but what helps me is to put in my headphones. I can hear much better then. Thanks Janie for all you do!

I adore Cottage Gardens of Petaluma. I have to go without my husband because I always want to walk around and look at everything and take my time.
Cottage Gardens is one of my sanctuary spots! My hairdresser is right across the way so I usually treat myself to a hair & Cottage Gardens day 😆🥰🪴
H I! I've been following your channel for awhile, but am a new subscriber. I live in Rohnert Park ( zone 9B), and Cottage Gardens is my go to garden center. I was so excited to have tuned in and you were there! They have the best plants, best garden art and kindest most helpful staff. ❤
Thanks for subscribing Nancy! I was so impressed with Cottage Gardens!
Awesome - what a blast for you two and us too!! Thank you.
What a beautiful nursery! That’s not just shopping, that’s an adventure. How fun!
I wish I lived closer so I could visit that beautiful nursery. It reminds me of Blue Moon Gardens in Edom Tx. They have unique plants and a large selection hand made garden art. I can’t wait to see the next video.

Camille, you are going to LOVE it! Go in the summer and you can stop by the Dahlia farm there too!
I shop at Cottage Gardens too. It is so beautiful and well-staged that you want to buy everything. Wish I could take a sandwich and just sit in the middle of it and take it all in!
You 2 are such fun to watch together... how funny 🎉
Thanks for this video Janey❤. The Cottage Nursery of Petaluma is amazing❣️
Thanks for sharing this amazing nursery. I have family in Petaluma and will definitely stop by when we are there.
I look forward to more of these fun videos! I wish that I could visit a garden center like that today instead of shoveling snow!
What a beautiful place! I can’t wait to visit. Thanks for sharing. 🥬
Great video thank you so much so much fun when you and Robbie are together enjoying your you're beautiful ❤️ love for flowers 🌺🌹
Purple kale is very pretty in the landscape and very hardy too.
What a great place!! Please share your visits again and pick up those balls and other art for your garden!!!
So exciting to see you and Robbie together. I totally get Robbie’s expensive taste. Somehow I always like the most expensive things too. 💚
Found this garden center years ago and it's truly everything you said the staff is wonderful there. Never had a bad experience just bliss.Happy gardening the problem is always trying to decide what to buy.
Ahhh Petaluma, born and raised Miss it. ❤
I can identify with Fionuala. I become obsessed with a certain plant and have to get every variety out there. Petaluma, what an apt name for gardens.
This place is incredible, you must go back in the late Spring and check out their offerings. So many temptations for the Spring/Summer/Fall garden.
Loved seeing you two together and such an amazing nursery can’t wait till you return and share your trip
Thank you! This is now on my list to visit in the next couple weeks. Petaluma also has a Baker's Creek seed bank downtown - Will have to make a day of it!
Ooh I so agree w Distant Drums! Incredible ombre color and shape. I got a bareroot that flowered so beautifully the first year
There’s something about gardening and antiquing they seem to go hand in hand. I just realized the gardeners I follow most also enjoy thrifting or shopping for antiques! ❤
This place is amazing . I want to live there 🥰!!!
Omg!!! Welcome to my hood. Fionuala is exactly as you described. Her staff and her are awesome.

Welcome. 🎉
I will DEFINITELY be back in Spring! Wouldn't miss it!
I fell in Love with Cottage Garden about 2 years ago. I agree with you it is one of the BEST in NO CA
So good!
Ohhh! I have got to do a day trip there! I admire the restraint that both you and Robbie showed with shopping, haha!
Beautiful place, and it’s nice to see green things when it’s so cold & snowy here in NH. Also, you’re so lucky to have an “enabler” in your life who loves gardening as much as you do😆 Many of us have friends & family members who question whether we really need so many plants, seeds… You two are fun to watch!
So jealous. We are still in deep snow, here in Alberta, Canada 🇨🇦
How beautiful!!! May need to make a trip to Petaluma now. Have you been to Alden Lane nursery in Livermore yet?? If not please check it out. It’s always been one of my favorite places.
Great tour ! Love that place so much ,I love that I don’t think of anything else when watching your videos , when you guys are together it’s hilarious 😆
Amazing and precious nursery I’m definitely going to watch for her article in my next Fine Gardening issue.
.❤. I love a Janey and Robbie day!
I will take a trip to this garden place. Thank you for sharing. 🤗
Looks like an awesome place! Thanks for sharing!

I adore you two, you make me smile. How have I not heard of this place? Amazing and cannot wait to see your antique treasures. 🍄

I so need to find something like this in So Cal. I keep telling my husband we need to make a weekend trip and come see all these amazing garden centers by you. And yes, bring the truck. LOL
Love love this.
I get my coffee, turn on computer and pull up your video for the day first thing almost every morning! My bff lives in Davis and I have made a list for her to visit all the places you go to.

Great tour! Even though I am on the other side of the country, it is super cool to see this amazing nursery ❤ So inspiring!!
I subscribed to that magazine, will pay attention to that writer! That place is sooo charming….i love places like that….Love Love
Zone 9b...my zone..but I'm in Phoenix. But I can see myself driving here and going home with a uhaul full.
Janey-I now how much you love visiting various nurseries. Next time you’re in Washington state you have to visit Valley Nursery in Poulsbo. I’ll take you!
I love that you are local . I so enjoy Petaluma. There is a beer garden down by the river that is just wonderful.
Ok Janey I’m obsessed now! I’m 2 hours away and I’m going out there asap! Thanks for doing these tours so we can be inspired for our spring gardens! I’m also going to take a trip to The Primitive Barn that Pamela toured! I can’t wait for this gardening year!🎉🎉🎉
Me too! Petaluma and Linden, here I come😆
Me too!!
Great time , anytime we get to be with you and Robbie.
That place is magical. I'm telling my best friend who lives by San Francisco , Rodeo .
Saddly i live in central IL, talk about bleak. It is bleak here.
What a Fun video. Love seeing the beautiful Nursery. Thank you for sharing.
Lovely video 🥰🥰
I can't believe that neither of you bought any of those amazing balls, or any of the other decor items like those metal pinecones and/or flowers! I need to get out there to shop!
That was fun to watch. Did you film more of the evergreen conifers? Would love to see more of that.
This is my absolute favorite nursery!!! We drive a hour and 20 mins to get there and it’s beyond worth it. It’s so charming. It’s always where I want to go for my birthday. Or anytime. Lol
I was going to mention this place to you to see if you’d been there yet! We went recently and it’s sooo cute! I wish it was closer to me. Oh well, I guess I’ll just have to plan more vacations with my husband based on garden center locations 🤫
Always fun to watch you and Robbie together. What a beautiful garden center.
thoses black swans would perfect by your arbor or your gazebo for art in your garden or something like that
Hi Janey, Cottage Gardens is one of my favs! A great place to walk around and get ideas for decor display. It has the best selection and prices of roses. I'm not so patiently waiting for the David Austins to arrive.
That place is so amazing! I’ve never seen a place like that with so much garden art ,plants, and ideas!👍😎❤️
Great tour, Janey and Robbie be careful where you plant the Fava beans, they among other beans can be very toxic to dogs if they eat them raw or leaves/stems. I grow all my toxic plant varieties in my front yard where my dogs don't roam so it's safe to grow them there out of reach. All those veggies and lettuces make me want to make a salad :)
This gets me excited about spring! Love this cottage garden center! Also love when Robbie is shopping with you!💕
So glad you came to Petaluma. I love living here. Cottage Gardens is amazing. You two together are so cute!
Those little pink succulents were beautiful
Thanks for sharing. That is such a cool place with unusual plants.
I love that place to. The care they put into every detail is amazing . Oh I grow moss without even trying LOL (Oregon )
Jealous!!! Would love to go there! Amazing garden, so much to see. I hope you go back in Spring. Janey, you can make your own cement balls and planters, look it up on utube, pintrist for pointers. I think you need some in front of your office and zigzag planters. You have so many places they would look great! Would love Fava beans, have only grown scarlet runners. Love vinning/climbing plants . Would love the roses, but sooo expensive!
Enjoy your antiquing, wouldn't mind seeing that either!
Robbie and I were talking about DIYing the balls! I'll look into it for sure!
Such a sweet nursery! I need a road trip from Seattle. She highlighted the roses I love!
Good morning from Kentucky! That place is so beautiful! And my favorite David Austin is American! It's the most beautiful mutted rose!
I’d love to see her home garden!!
Yay, I have been dying to go to Cottage Gardens, it is on my calendar for this year. This sneak peek was so fun. Fine Gardening is one of my favorite garden magazines too!

What a great garden center, all the beautiful sculptures, to bad I live on the other side of the country.
💛
What kind of trees are those (next to the balls)? So pretty.
You guys need to go visit Menagerie Farm & Flower !!!🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
