St. Pete fruit tree/bush stores?

14 years ago

I am going to be in the St. Pete area on Saturday. Can anyone recommend a place or two that might sell some nice blackberries or blueberries? Any nice gardening stores to check out over there otherwise that aren't big box stores?

Thanks

Wes

You need to try the Green Thumb Festival! There are so many vendors. You are lucky to be in town this weekend. I know I've seen blueberries there in past years. Also check out Jene's Tropicals and Willow Tree Nursery.

I'll 2nd the Green Thumb suggestion - you're sure to find what you want there - & more! Vendors usually have special discount pricing as well - & there will be around 250 vendors this year.

Here is a link that might be useful: Green Thumb Festival

I think the Green Thumb is your best-bet... and also Willow Tree, also Kathy's Korner Nursery and Esmeralda's both on Haines Rd. and 60 - 61 Ave. No., Good Luck... sally

Was able to swing by the festival and grab two Natchez blackberry's from the Berry Edible tent. Thanks for the suggestion, I had completely forgotten it was going on till you reminded me.
