A Spring Branch Original

Founded by Frank and Suzan Galvan, In The Garden grew from a landscaping enterprise and a warehouse full of unusual finds into a half-acre retail destination just off I-10 at Blalock.

The result is an eclectic, ever-changing mix of specialty plants, herbs, planters, fountains, statuary, patio furniture, and original art from local artists.
