Best Home & Garden IN LAKEWOOD/EAST DALLAS

And the winner is … Redenta’s Garden Shop

Colorful pots of every shape and color line Redenta’s shelves. Plants hang from the ceiling, catching the sunlight that streams through the many wide windows, and between the greenery sit small displays of crystal, soap and other knick-knacks. Despite a variety of goods, Redenta’s home and garden store at the corner of Skillman and Oram in Lakewood, has a clean and distinctly zen feel to it. “That’s what we’re going for,” says manager Josh Addison. In our neighborhood, neighbors voted Redenta’s the best home and garden store probably because of its dedication to use only organic fertilizer and plant spray. “We don’t use any chemicals on anything,” Addison insists. “I think that’s why people seek us out. We have people who come from all over because they know any plant they buy here isn’t going to be treated and the vegetables aren’t going to be sprayed.” Not to mention Redenta’s is stocked with Texas-friendly plants, and it’s staffed with plant lovers who are well versed in gardening. Redenta’s has been serving the Lakewood area for more than 25 years, and most of its customers are regulars — some have even been shopping at Redenta’s since it opened.
