Beautiful place, beautiful inventory, everything looks gorgeous the only problem I had today which I never had before. There was a young blond working the register, I asked her for some help, if someone can help lift the plants for me because I can't lift. She said get a cart and go get them. I was trying to talk to her about its purchase that I… had made before that was supposed to be a red crape myrtle and it turned out to be pink, the name was Dynamite which is supposed to be a dark red but ended up being pink. I tried to explain to her. She snapped and said they are mark as it is. She

@Wayne H - re Review by Elizabeth De Jesus.
You missed my point. I know the routine and protocols as i have shopped at this place several times over the years. It was my preferred nursery.
In the past, a dialogue would ensue to discuss needs such as "Do you have something in mind?" and we would go from there. Not this time. If you read my comments, he was condescending from the start & I explained how his dialogue was snarky.It was a dialogue btw or a condescending lecture. It wasn't a sentence or two. He didn't even say, "well, do you have something in mind? Are

I have been going there for years & get recommendations. Today, asked a tall, thin, man about recommendations for a certain situation for my front porch. He was so condescending & had no need for it. He told me he didn't know what I wanted as there is foliage, shrubs, cactus (& he continued down the list of categories). He didn't stop so I could clarify. He then continued to talk down to me and explain how they have "x" # of acres with all sorts of & that is when I cut him off & told him he didn't have to be an a&&hole about it. I don't

They never answer their phone!!!!! And on top of that we bought a crimson crape myrtle tree and had them plant it (a month wait). And now the tree started to bloom and it’s WHITE!!! This is the 4th tree we have… bought from them and we have always had a good experience until now. Make sure whatever tree you buy is the one they plant. Now if only someone would answer their phone. I have called all day and no one answers.

Would have loved to give 5 stars but the customer service prevented/
discouraged me from purchasing more from this cool nursery. The woman who checked us out was in a terrible mood. She was rude and verbally complaining about other customers to us. She was bad enough that we just wanted to get out of there ASAP.

OK. I do not know what's happened to this place over the last few years. Their customer service is nonexistent. No one acknowledges you. Good luck if you're needing any assistance. I was here last week and waited at the register for over 10 minutes and nobody ever came. I looked around the place and couldn't find anybody. Two other customers behind me eventually walked off leaving their merchandise where they stood. I came by this morning to again try and purchase what I wanted. I was first at the register with plants in hand. The lady at the register was on the phone (I know

I recently purchased 5 sage bushes from here, upon checking my mail a few days later I noticed that I received a coupon for 20% off that I didn't get a chance to use. I called the next morning to see if they would be willing to credit me for the coupon since I had just purchased everything and I still had my receipt. The girl I spoke to originally told me yes, just come by and they would credit me back for the coupon, but when we discussed it further another employee came up and told her no that a lot of people have called and the general manager has already told them no. I asked her to
