Knecht's Nursery had a fair selection of native plants and a good selection of various evergreens. Since those were the plants I was seeking, I didn't look at anything else. They had knowledgeable and helpful staff. Prices were lower than in the Metro.

I bought three trees here over the past several years with relative success. They give good instructions about planting and initial care. While most of the folks I have been helped by were nice - one had pretty terrible customer service skills - they also have been a bit overzealous about being able to fit the trees in my vehicle.

I get in trouble every time I go here. They have a wonderful selection and the employees are super friendly. I can't wait to go back and get more things to make our yard beautiful!

Purchased this beautiful Redbud Tree a year ago early April. Look at it now! Just returned to buy a Golden Pagoda Dogwood and Witch Hazel. Wow, their plants look so good.
