Seasonal spring and Mother's Day items!
Evelyn K.

Situated just beside the small Torrance airport sits Armstrong Garden Centers. It's much larger than the one I grew up next to and offers a broad selection of houseplants, garden staples, potting solutions, pesticides, and more. Every plant looks healthy and you can tell the many staff here do an excellent job of keeping the place clean. I came to this location looking for miniature African violets since my local Armstrong didn't carry them, and walked home with four little pots (all different colors)! Every gardener here is so friendly and greets you in passing. There's also a large home and outdoor decor section where you can try the patio seating or find a seasonal gift for the plant lover in your life. 10/10 will be coming back more often!

The staff at Armstrong Garden Center were so friendly and helpful! Patty went above and beyond to help me with my gardening needs. They are conveniently located and the parking lot has plenty of available spaces. Their store is very well maintained too!

Pink and Yellow: I visited Armstrong today for the 1st time and wanted to thank Russell for his knowledgeable help and making it a fun experience while choosing my 2 new houseplants (pink and yellow). I felt a bit lost until Russell stepped in, simplifying everything and guiding me through the diff sections of the store. The plants are so pretty and fit right in. Thank you so much!

I usually head to DTLA for plants, but when i'm not feeling the hours worth of traffic and want to stay local, I come here. I have around 6 houseplants from Armstrong and all came healthy and are still alive a year later. Can be a little pricey, but plants are always in great shape upon purchase (unlike home depot or lowe's), and staff is INCREDIBLY friendly and knowledgeable. Also: I have bought ceramic decorative pots for as little as $3, the sales for pots are amazing, just takes a little bit of searching through the shelves ;)

Armstrong sold us a pot of peonies for $119 we felt in love withe flowers in the picture but it turns out the flowers are not quite the same as those in the picture

Do they sell caterpillars?

We do not sell caterpillars but we do have plants like asclepia that will attract them to your garden.

This is one of the hidden gems in Torrance and the South Bay. You can't miss their sign when you're…read moredriving down Hawthorne! They have a nursery here and they have a very wide selection of plants! I'd say they're known for their variety of staghorn ferns and air plants but they also have monsteras and other popular house plants. Everything is priced very reasonably. This is a great place to get gifts for friends and family. They are very professional and helpful. They're very patient and answered all my questions when it came to taking care of my staghorn fern. I loved mine so much that I came back a few weeks later to pick up a second one. One of the best things about this place is their koi ponds! They have two inside! You can buy fish food for $3 and feed them at your leisure. It's perfect for kids. For those who own staghorn ferns, they also help with remounting them when they get too big but you'll need to contact them directly and see if the service is available.

The whole place was very clean, well-organized, and full of healthy plants. Their prices were also very reasonable and affordable. I was able to get some Bromeliad Fireball and Alcantarea imperialis for a great price. The staff was professional, friendly, and very informative, which made the visit even better. Overall, this nursery is a great place for anyone who loves tropical plants. I'm very happy with my visit and will definitely come back for more plants

I prefer Lowes over Home Depot. Lowes stores are cleaner and the parking lot is less chaotic. I…read morehave recently written how Lowes offers a no paper receipt option at checkout. This reduces trash and saves them money that can be passed on to the customer. However, HD sells small hickory wood logs to use in a smoker. Lowes only sells chunks. I dragged the 30 lbs. of wood to the register and went through the payment process. When I asked if there was a no receipt option, the person working there said, don't worry, it will give you one." I proceeded to throw it away in the trash can as I left. There is no need in most cases to produce a paper receipt. I have an account with HD, give me the electronic option there.

Today I asked a woman in flooring if there was staff to answer a question for a self improvement job. She wanted to know my question so I asked... and yep she was dumb founded and said my guys won't help you but they will install it for you. Wtf is wrong with people's brains?! How can you hire people who are of no help? You'd be better off not hiring at all. So many employees standing around chatting with each other. Lowe's at least have staff that try to help. Actually I stopped coming here two years ago but thought I would check them out for a product I'm looking for.
