Looking for nurseries in New York City. Well, I found several on 28th Street. They're pretty reasonably priced and there are a variety of species than the typical ones sold at Home Depot and Gristedes Market. We bought three from Chad (I believe the second nursery from McDonald's). He really knew the species and genus, which species thrive in sunlight and low light, and was informative on care for each plant. We bought a succulent plant, called "Panda," a "Buddha" plant, and a "Peace Lily." The more color a plant has, the more sunlight it needs.
