This was my first trip here after my neighbor recommended it and it is really great! An outstanding selection of plants at very reasonable prices. I was looking for 2 nice Easter plants and I was able to get both for less than $30! It's my new go-to place for flowers and plants.

Do NOT buy a Christmas tree here. Zero customer service and outrageous prices (over $170 for sub par trees). This place has really gone downhill. Prices have continued to go up, yet selection and customer service has dropped significantly. We have been regulars of Johnson's for YEARS. Not anymore

My visit to Johnson's Florist and Garden Center was very refreshing. I was looking for a particular plant as a sympathy gift and this was my first time there. Once I found the plant, Grace and Sylvia were super helpful. They potted the plant, wrapped it really nicely, placed it in a box, and put a bow on it without me having to ask. They knew it was a gift and made every effort to make it look pretty and presentable.
They were very attentive and thoughtful. It's ALWAYS refreshing when one receives EXCELLENT customer service. Thank you ladies. Your help was greatly appreciated. Stay EXCELLENT I now have a place to go when I'm looking to purchase a plant or some flowers.
