Honestly, everyone. If you’re a hardcore gardener with a spreadsheet for your crops, you’ll love the variety of quality seeds and rare perennials. If you’re like me—a chaotic hobbyist who buys plants based on vibes—you’ll love that nothing is too precious or intimidating.

Even if you kill every plant you touch (no judgment, I’ve been there), the garden centre section is a great place to browse just for the aesthetic. It’s like a museum, but you can buy the exhibits. And touch everything.
A final thought on “Early Dawn”
The name makes me smile. It suggests that these people understand the magic of getting dirty before the rest of the world is awake. There’s a quiet, hopeful energy in that. Plus, you avoid the mid-day sun and the swarm of retired couples arguing over which watering can is “ergonomic enough.”
So if you’re in the neighborhood and need to rescue a sad succulent, or if you just want to wear gardening gloves while sipping a latte in public, go to Cherry Lane Early Dawn. It’s the kind of place that reminds you that growing things—even messily—is a small, beautiful rebellion against a chaotic world.
Just don’t blame me if you leave with a birdbath and a ceramic frog. You’ve been warned.
