A beautiful selection, great service, and always a fun experience here if you're a plant lover! I've used Harlow Gardens for landscaping also, and they were very helpful through the entire process, and I was very happy with the final outcome. Bring in your challenged plants or photos of them, and the staff is there to assist. I love this place!

I tried to purchase a pot just now (out on display) and was told I had to wait an hour for the store to figure out how much to charge for it. If these are the usual practices, I wouldn't recommend shopping here.

Harlow Gardens is an amazing resource with stellar customer service. Henry is top notch! Our family ordered two TEP shade trees from Harlow Gardens. After getting the email they were available we went to pick them up. We've driven by Harlow in the past, but never went inside. It looks a little small from the front, but it's like a Tardis and it's much bigger as you go in. Henry was super helpful in showing us where the desert willow trees were and even took time to help us choose the best looking ones.

He also helped my wife find some additional plants in the clearance area. Henry had lots of tips and helpful knowledge for growing plants in our desert climate. Definitely recommend checking out Harlow Gardens for all your plant needs!

I used to go to Harlow Gardens all the time and spend a lot of money there. One day I was telling an employee about a challenge I was experiencing in my front yard. He encouraged me to buy this spray to use on my mesquite tree. Trusting him, I followed his recommendations. However, the spray didn't work as the employee had indicated. So I returned to the store and explained what had happened. The cashier made a phone call and 15 minutes later, the manager appeared with a big frown, as if we were disrupting her day.

I explained again what had happened, and she angrily interrupted me, telling me that her employee hadn't known what he was talking about. To her credit, she gave me my money back. What I remember most, though, was her attitude that the false information her employee had given me was somehow my fault. If the manager treats her customers this way, one can only imagine how poorly she treats her employees.
