In an effort to obtain a thorough understanding of their subject matter, botanists spend countless hours measuring the effects of sunlight and burying themselves up to the waist in dirt. Reap the benefits of botanical studies with today’s Groupon: for $5, you get $10 worth of plants and garden décor at Jessica's Garden in Marlborough.
The staff members at Jessica’s Garden draw upon their vast knowledge of green-thumbery to imbue customers with a cornucopia of seasonal trees, shrubs, perennials, annuals, and garden embellishments. Spice up existing greenery by planting garlic chives ($5.99), which blossom with flowers before transitioning into baked potato toppings, or sass up marinara sauces by enlisting the aid of a sweet basil plant ($5.99) skilled in insult comedy. For backyard aromatherapy, add the soothing scents of tricolor sage ($5.99) and Provence lavender ($5.99), or turn your yard into a foot utopia by covering the ground with velvety Irish moss ($3.99) and Blue Star Creeper ($3.99) or by sending garden gnomes to podiatry school.
Owner Jessica Carroll boasts landscaping certification from the University of Massachusetts Green School and accreditation from the Connecticut Nursery and Landscape Association. Though this Groupon is not valid for food or drink, Jessica’s Garden also features a lunch and dessert café nestled beside a picturesque pond, ideal for enjoying afternoon treats or for inspiring watercolor portraits of Monet eating a lobster roll.
