The Bloomin' Barn

BEWARE - WE BOUGHT 12 KOI FISH FROM HERE - THEY ALL HAD BACTERIAL INFECTION AND ALL MY 100 PLUS FISH IN MY POND DIED. DO NOT BUY KOI FROM THESE GUYS, IF YOU WANT YOUR FISH TO LIVE.

The Bloomin’ Barn was recommended by an acquaintance who knew that we had a backyard pond. We visited it, bought a new pump for our waterfall, started to install the pump, and it broke during the install. Because it was our fault that the casing cracked, I called the manufacturer to order a new part. The manufacturer told me that it was no problem and no cost to replace that part since it was brand new. They told me to call the place of purchase and the store would replace the broken part at no charge; that was the manufacturer’s guarantee. I called the Bloomin’ Barn and talked with the young man from whom we had purchased the pump; he took all the necessary information, and ordered the part. When I called the Bloomin’ Barn a couple of weeks later, I was told that the part was in, but when we went to pick it up, it was the wrong piece. The young man with whom we had done business was very helpful and apologetic, but here is where the story takes a dive. The apparent owner, an older man took over and face us nothing but negative attitude and comments. He told me the pump looked old and “chewed up” to him (it had never been used) and when the young man returned with the needed part from a pump off the shelf, put it on our pump, and handed it to me, the older man gave him a dirty look. I asked the young man if I owed him anything and the older man piped in with, “charge her what this other piece cost!” I paid the $8.50 and left, never to return again. And never to recommend the Bloomin’ Barn to anyone!

I've been coming here for years. Year after year they always have everything I want & everything I didn't know I wanted!😊 The inventory is usually always stocked, however this year w/everyone planting Gardens the inventory was hit hard. Prices reflect a small business so expect to pay more but the quality of items is worth it. You can shop at ease taking your time w/out being hounded by aggressive staff. You'll find everything from fish for ponds, herbs, hanging plants, flower box plants, vegetables etc...... & close parking to products. The store itself is located behind the owners home so you pull into their driveway. They do accept credit cards as well. Definitely worth the trip, enjoy!

Place was serviceable, seemed like they had a solid selection of terrestrial plants and healthy ones at that. Their selection of marginals was just okay to say the least, and they weren't as healthy as the other plants. Prices were bit on the high end as well. The staff wasn't all that friendly, but they never came off as rude. I ended up finding what I needed, however I don't have a good reason to return as of now.

Koi pond central. We buy some of our supplies for our koi pond here. Also they usually have a great selection of plants and flowers Staff is cool. I. Always asking questions and they haven't thrown me out yet!😁
