A dream come true. Knowledgeable men with landscaping materials and home decor.
I have searched many places as a native of the area to find trees and plants to create a landscape makeover. Paul knows all the right information about weather, sun and appropriate choices for this area!!! Rich has great taste in unique home decor. Great value, great choices, great fun. Adorable dog Nora...watch out for Cruella!

I forgot to mention...the flower arrangements are fantastic...I never get one that I don't get tons of compliments on...the Christmas Open House is great and the coffee/tea/lemonade, etc. and desserts are always available. My mom loves coming in her and being giving a rose for just because--------------

I have been to Bowman's on several occasions - they are definately worth visiting if you are in Portsmouth. I also use them regularly to send flowers to my family in Portsmouth. The arrangements or live plants that arrive from Bowmans are not only beautiful, but always fresh and abundantly large for the amount of money that I spend! Great Work Guys!

Bowman's has become a weekly experience! Paul and Rich are each equally accommodating and add a genteel element which is expected in the true Southern hospitality experience. I find prices to be within reason and, with an array of the unexpected, gems are prevelant for the particular buyer. This is a store which caters to the "tea-and-roses" connoisseur and is NOT for the gardener who isn't in the market for quality.

Kudos, neighbors! I, for one, am hooked!

it is quite clear that the previous reviewer has not experianced the finer things in life and has poor taste
the staff is always helpful and friendly if she wants walmart go for it although there are not alot of garden products in sight that dose not mean there are not any there bowmans prides itself on guest service and always has
so do them a favor and shop at the places that fit you best
wal mart maybe would be a good start go ahead and walk on in with your pic and pay shoes

The store is beautiful and the customer service is great. It is not Lowe's or Home Depot. Prices are high in some cases but the quality and uniqueness can't be beat. I love going to browse and usually buy something that I have not seen anywhere else. Can't wait for the Christmas Open House.

Do not stock common products. Too high end. Gardeners need gardening products not elaborate design store with sky-high prices. The owner is friendly but his assistant (male) is arrogant and unfriendly.
