We usually buy our Spring flowers at Pahl's Market in Apple Valley, a suburb located "next door" to Eagan. They offer a great greenhouse brimming with flowers, perennials, etc. Great lawn ornaments and POTs, too! 
My cart was fairly loaded and cost me $100.23 at the checkout. Plants aren't cheap!

I don't think I have ever visited a green house before. yeah, would you believe it? I think this is a nice place to buy plants =)
I don't know from Pahl's...(must be a funny place, though, 'cause they don't even know how to spell "Paul"!
Apple Valley, I know, has great apples!
We have to go way outside the city to find a place like this.
I love greenhouses, the smell and sights, even though i'm allergic to almost everything in it. ;) I also have a horrible brown thumb and have a hard time keeping things alive. :(
What a feet tirade you left on Versailles! I just bought some verbena and thyme today!
Hi Leif, We made our annual trip to the greenhouse and bought 8 tomato plants, 4 basil plants, rosemary, sage, thyme, colius, and an asortmant of flowers I know not about. And I'm as far north as you can get in Henepin county on 169.
That is pretty expensive! But will probably be worth it, right? I bought some veggie plants for my veranda last weekend too! I got eggplant and okra :)
A very good shop, I'd like to have one like this near home.
We visited the Twin Cities a year ago and we met some blogger friends at the Bachmann store cafe on Lyndale, I think. It was great!
To answer your question, I'm not in ZH all that much, but two of the cafes I like very much are Hiltl and Tibits. They're special (Hiltl is the oldest vegetarian restaurant in Europe and Tibits is a spin-off). There are many other nice ones, what are you looking for in particular? Hard to answer without knowing what you're looking for...
Cool shot and yr oh so right about not cheap!
Wow! Very expensive!
