Don't go anywhere else for all your indoor and outdoor plant needs. This place is the real deal. They have a great selection, good prices, and super helpful employes. Ask for Connie; she is a hoot and knows her plants!

The place was awesome. They got about anything you could need. I'll definitely be going back. They were really friendly as well.

The best in the city. Rob literally walked me over 40 percent of the grounds to help me find everything I went in there to get. Shop with them. They're local. They're professional. They're real good at what they do too.

Asked for advice on what to plant and they recommended dogwoods. Once we got them, they ended up dying fast. We went back to replace them with the warranty and they said they looked fine. Once we were out of warranty we went back and they thought we were crazy for buying dogwoods. Apparently they don't do well here. even though they recommended it.

We bought other various plants and they were sick with a virus. They told us again that they would be okay. Once we were out of warranty, they said they were actually sick but couldn't help us since we were out of warranty. Poor customer service and sick plants.

An older plant nursery that's been around a long time. But they have a wide variety of everything you need for your yard or acreage. Many types of plants, trees, fertilizer, yard scaping decorations and supplies, fertilizer, weed killer, and soooo much more. Their staff is friendly, knowledgeable, and eager to help.

We bought all our plants to landscape our front yard. I was glad we pick this place. The staff was super friendly and helpful. They had everything we wanted. We went with a list and we left with a completely different list of plants that we love, from our Taylor's perfections, azaleas, lemon drift roses, saucer magnolia and our two Cleveland flowering trees.

I had a total of 6 employees answer questions for me, get prices, show where my items were, carry things to the front, load my car, share knowledge on specific plants, how to care for what I purchased, reserved insecticide over the phone for pick up, and gave me a good discount on an item with minor damage. The selection is great. You will find things here you won't see other places like the unusual orchids that bloom in Hawaiians or the white butterfly ginger plants. Here is one of my purchase below. I will definitely go back. They are the best.

We have gotten at least 30 plants here, as well as their planting and potting mix, and a few pots. Everything has been excellent! Plants we purchased included 3 citrus trees, hybrid tea roses, mums, violas, green mountain boxwoods, and azaleas. We did lose one citrus tree after about 3 months, but it was a small, weaker plant and sometimes these things just happen.

Our mums from the fall were planted and are starting to reamerge. Our 2 remaining citrus trees did fine out in weather as low as 40 degrees. We put them on a board with wheels to wheel them in and out of the garage and they did great this winter. Such a sweet nursery! Check them out! Pics are of hybrid tea roses we planted in Feb 2018 and of a lemon tree we got in July 2017. Given minimum care and they still thrive.

Always a pleasure to do business with the excellent team at Harwell's Green Thumb Nursery. They just installed a wonderful Zoysia sod in my lower garden area...looks great! Thanks so much.

These folks have it going on!!! Helpful. Knowledgeable. Great stock on many items. Great place to buy plants and get help caring for them!

I love this place. I've been to the "big box stores" for plants, of course. But here I have found the plants to be healthier and more vigorous.. hands down. The folks who work out in the greenhouse are both knowledgeable and happy to share that information. Highly rated!!
