Visited on Tuesday with a list of plants, fertilizers, my soil test results, photos, etc.to finish a landscape renovation project as things were tired and overgrown and just had trees trimmed and shrubs removed by an arborist. My hope was to leave with a few things purchased and hire Green Thumb to deliver and install mulch and sod and also suggest and install some shrubs.

I walked around the center to view the plants and they had a nice selection. When I went inside the building and stood at the register for several minutes and again no one came to help me. There was a woman in the office but did not interrupt as did not see if on phone, etc. I walked outside again and the same two men were walking around taking, could not see anyone working to wait my turn so gave up and left wondering who was minding that business.

Maybe I had to fill out the web form to get any attention or service? Given the other reviews I don't know if they only staff on weekends or ignored me as a woman or my age or what the issue was. Frustrating and a waste of time. I would suggest look elsewhere as same shrubs and plants as at Home Depot and Lowes and those employees actually greet you and facilitate your purchase. Tried to support a local business and prepared to pay for the convenience of a one stop shop. There is a nice sod company nearby on Linebaugh and mulch can be sourced many places.

This is a family owned Nursery and they are the friendliest people. The helped loading the things to the vehicle. Prices are reasonable. They even drilled a tiny hole in my new hanging ceramic pot out of kindness. The variety of plants is wide, a lot to choose from. Totally recommend! They di everything from landscaping to shaping pots.

Customer support ends after the sale is done. My tree died within months of planting it. I called to find out what went wrong. I wasn't looking for a free replacement or refund, just some help with figuring out what went wrong, so i don't repeat it the next time. Talked to whom i think was the manager or owner, said he would stop by to take a look to figure it out.

That never happened. Left a message to get an update, never got a call back. For that kind of service, i might as well go to Lowes or Home Depot, at least the prices will be lower.

Beautiful place! Loved all of the variety of plants, trees, shrubs etc. Also sells Christmas trees when it's holiday time they are a little pricey for the Christmas trees but their selection was way better than other stores.

I am by no means a Gardener and I was only partially sure of what I wanted in plants when I arrived. Tyler was SO helpful and kind! He was looking for someone to help and I was that person. He helped me narrow down what types I needed based on where it's going, how much light the area gets (I brought pictures) and what I wanted (color and blooms). I'm excited to go back for more.

Incredible service that I would recommend to any family or friend. My wife and I recently renovated our back yard, and I'm so thankful that we found Green Thumb. Through every step of the way, Steve was helpful and kind and full of great ideas. Even though our yard wasn't big, he never let us feel like it was too small of a job and gave us the VIP treatment.

When we ran into snags with our HOA, a fence company and a dead tree, Steve didn't skip a beat and was able to come up with wonderful and creative solutions. Our backyard has transformed from a barren and dead landscape to a Florida oasis, and we can't wait to show off the work to friends. Below you can see the before and after photos. My wife also visited the store itself for additional potted plants for the front yard and the staff there was kind and helpful. We WILL be back.
