    Yeah, we have those in the US too. Not sure why that other commenter seems to think Ace Hardware is the smallest business that sells plants, there are plenty of small nurseries in every state.

      Maybe they just live in a really bleak and lifeless small town or something and don’t really explore to find the cool places.

        Or a large city… I think you’re actually more likely to find these stores in rural areas.

          With mixed usage zoning, large cities can be really great for these actually.

            I’m not saying that they wouldn’t be allowed in cities, just that in my experience they’re more likely to be found in rural areas. When I look at nurseries in and around the closest major city, most are in the outskirts of the city where land is a lot cheaper, rather than the built-up urban areas.
