Eastern shore nursery info

In previous trips up the Eastern Shore, I've passed an interesting looking greenhouse/nursery on the left side of route 13 heading north, fairly close to the Virginia/Maryland border, I think. I'm headed that way again next weekend, and I was wondering if anyone might have the name or any information about it - just curious, and wondering if it's worth a stop. Any other places along the way? I know the Eastern Shore Garden tour's that weekend, but that appears to be more about houses than gardens (much like HGTV these days). I'm more interested in down-and-dirty, plant geek-style gardening places.

Not sure about anything near the MD border, but there is Tankard Nursery in Exmore (about an hour north of VA Beach) and Sterrett Gardens in Craddockville (about 20 mins from Tankards). Sterrett's grow daylilies and are highly recommended but are only open June-July on the weekends.

I think I know the nursery that you are talking about it's near or in New Church Va I don't know the name of it. Very near the border. I stopped there because the sign said exotic plants and they have a grove of bamboo on the side of their greenhouse.
