The Potting Shed.......Carole Berg......

When you step into The Potting Shed--the creation of designer, and long-time Lakewood dealer, Carole Berg--it's like visiting an English village garden shop full of fresh flowers and plants, but the magic is that there are no live plants to water!

Carole specializes in creating the English garden look--without the work--by using upscale and quality florals, while incorporating wonderful primitives and garden antiques, to achieve a truly realistic look. Her favorite hobby is creating this look for clients in their home, or on site for special occasions.
