No one asked if we needed anything or acknowledged us. Employees were just on their phones and talking amongst themselves. We just left after. I guess they didn't want anymore business.

Fantastic greenhouse…read more They've been open the whole way through the pandemic and doing a great job of limiting customers at the door, making sure everyone wears a mask and wiping down the cash area, carts and providing sanitizer around the store. Unlike other stores, I've seen workers confront anti-maskers and escort them from the store. The girls are extremely knowledgeable and helpful, happy to make arrangements and talk about the plants and flowers. The soil guys out back are very helpful and strong! Remember to tip them! I've seen some reviews about the owner, but they're very one sided. I've been to the greenhouse frequently and started gardening a lot. I've only ever seen the owner stick up for his employees when they're being belittled and berated. Again this is only a few instances, but I can only imagine that the people with 1 star reviews of this place are also the types of people who don't get their way and tell their version of what happened. With that out of the way, they have a fantastic inventory and honestly considerably cheaper than other greenhouses in the area. It's no wonder that there's always a lineup.

(Bulow is tucked away, off the Lakeshore. I believe they also have a larger location in Oakville.) This place seemed to have a good selection from house plants, to shrubs, to full on trees. There were multiple employees around. Plants were organised by similar type, but if you're looking for a specific plant, you'll probably need help. For example, I would've never have found the roses, as the limited selection that was there was somewhat hidden. Rating is based on positive experience, wide variety of plants, enough staff, and there not being a line to get in!

The extensive range of plant collections caters to different preferences, providing ample choices for shoppers. However, the inadequate billing counter is a disappointment. Long queues and wait times can be frustrating, detracting from the overall shopping experience. Additionally, the absence of attractive offers or discounts diminishes the appeal for bargain hunters. Thou they occasionally provide great offers but those are mostly clearance offers towards season end. Despite these drawbacks, Terra Greenhouse remains a go-to destination for plant lovers.. It would have been a 5 experience if they have great offers and less billing wait time

I re-decorated my bedroom last summer and as a final touch I wanted to add a snake plant. My friend…read moreand I went to Terra to finally become plant mamas. The snake plant options seemed endless. These plants are known to keep the air clean and are easy to care for - two absolute wins in my book. I was able to not only find a plant to take home, but also a trendy planter that matched my new bedroom decor. The best part was that an employee was kind enough to offer to pot it for us. There was a small fee for this (under $10), but it was worth it because I am not the most educated when it comes to that kind of thing. The employee was also very transparent with us when we asked if she could ensure the plant was in a healthy state, it was :). Happy to report my plant is alive and thriving!

Another day, another garden centre as a willing hostage for my sweetheart!…read more It seems I've (we've) been on a country tour of these venues for the past few months. Another city, another eye appealing experience. There was no customer lineup here for entry. It was sunny but high humidity was in the air. Still, it the 3rd day of Step 1 for the re-opening of Ontario and it was sooooo nice to be outdoors today. This place is large-sized compared to recent ginormous garden centres recently visited. Indoor and outdoor product selection was very good and pricing excellent! Aisles were wide and it was easy to push a shopping cart along the flooring both inside and outdoors. Staff were very knowledgeable, friendly and courteous. Thank you to Kate and Sarah for making this a great shopping experience. Here's to success with the Bug BGonEco insecticide! Parking was not a problem although I don't know what it's like on a busy day. Wait for it..... Yes, we came home with 6 plant additions to the home!

Nice flowers, but unfortunately an error by Jade Gardens and poor customer service has resulted in…read morenone of my business. I purchased what was described to me by the manager as a foxtail fern. It's an unusual, and rare looking fern and it drew my attention. Well, a year later, I showed him what my fern looked like, and it was nothing like the foxtail fern. I asked if he has one that I could exchange it with but no more came in stock. Fast forward to May 2025, and they have them in stock. I asked if he could exchange it and he said he would need to call the owners. 5 minutes later, he told me the owners said they would not exchange it. It's a shame that you advertise a plant as a foxtail fern and get something else. All the years I have shopped there have now come to an end. There are many other garden centers that honor their products and accept their mistakes. NO MORE JADE GARDENS!

As I was walking out of Starsky in the same plaza I looked up I see in bright shining letters "BIRD SEED"! I drove across the parking lot and saw that Urban Nature Store was offering curbside pick up. I hadn't placed a pre-order, but the employee was nice enough to help me. I asked for a basic bag of feed - I'm no bird expert, the feeder was a gift. Apparently they have 16 types of bird seed, who knew. I paid $12 for a large bag of their most popular/standard seed - it was the smallest one they carried and I suppose it makes sense given you likely have to refill it quite often. The transaction was done quick and safe and I was grateful to have come across this shop, which I have never noticed before.
