I drove 2 hours in the rain and it was worth it. I was impressed by the massive selection of plants and nature. It's an MD staple. I'm late to the game, I know, but it's better to be late than never. I picked up some easy (hopefully) plants to care for: Pathos, Sweet & Sour and a Peace Lily.

I planted this weeping willow in memory of my dog who passed away. It’s a peaceful spot now, and the tree brings comfort every time I see it. As it grows, it feels like a part of him is still here with me. It’s a quiet, beautiful way to remember him.
Amazing selection of plants with super helpful information next to each type with a brief explanation of the amount of sun and care instructions for each plant. Great soil, flowers, and tree options. Super friendly staff members. Plenty of parking and it's pet friendly.
I am a fairly new plant mom and my colleague turned friend told me I would be “official” if I had not been to Valley View Farms lol, so here we arrived early on a Saturday morning and the trip to this oasis did not disappoint! The place is huge!!! It has some of everything a person or business would ever need regarding plants & plant life. I was overwhelmed by the variety of plants they have on deck. The selection of flower pots was amazing and had unique pots that you won’t find at your local big box stores. If I were to have purchased everything that I saw and wanted in there, I’d need a mansion, it’s sooooo many gorgeous things here, even outdoor furniture sets that are very nice!!!! I was told that things here are on the expensive side but the things o saw and the quality of the item was on par. I will be making coming here a part of my annual routine.
Every single plant Valley View Farms files under "groundcover" is a noxious invasive weed. That's murder on the songbirds, butterflies, and entire ecosystem outside your yard and a lot more work and trouble in it. They also lower property values. Google "invasive plants in Maryland" and things like their Japanese pachysandra and Vinca minor will top most lists; you don't have to take my word for it. They even have plants that work as groundcover, like Moss Phlox (which is evergreen at this latitude and native), in stock but not filed there. They could easily include other plants like Golden Groundsel (Packera aurea) that are also native, evergreen here, spread aggressively to cover ground just like the invasives, and will grow just about anywhere. It's exceptionally disappointing, as they also sell other non-native invasive plant species like Nandina. Because of this, despite their frequently robust selection of food plants and house plants and their smattering of native cultivars, I cannot recommend this nursery. If you have to shop here, please do it carefully with any shrub, bush, or perennial especially - these are plants that persist from year to year and are positioned to do a lot of damage. Protect your home's value, your neighborhood, the environment, and your own future time in contending with such plants.
