The Petunia Patch Boutique and Maternity ...The Store

Since its inception in 1972, the Petunia Patch has been a unique store that offers so much more than just clothing, accessories and gifts. It is a place where customers build a relationship with the co-founder,  Peggy Johnson and her staff. Its a place where you have a sip of their special punch (she makes it daily) and quiet conversation before diving headlong into the intriguing outfits that come in from all corners of the world....(For those who want  to make a fashion statement, discreetly...or sometimes not so discreetly!)

Personal Service is the key to the success of any small retail shop...and this is no exception.  they offer:

 LAYAWAY   *  ALTERATIONS (Bring in anything you want altered, we can do it) *WARDROBE CONSULTATION

*TRIP PLANNING ( just bring your itinerary)  * WARDROBE PLANNING (Using  Peggy's 3 X 5 Wardrobing formula)

*CLOSET MAKEOVERS  (3 HOURS $125.00)   *FASHION SHOWS * PRESENTATIONS * DRESSING SEMINARS
