The guy who did the installation was efficient and sweet, and the cost worked out the same as buying a 6ft tree from a median-priced lot. Will be using them again next year!

The tree nearly tipped over after the delivery guy left, and after the branches opened there were…read moredead/dried patches. The branches were also brittle and pale green so clearly this tree has been dead for a long time. Our delivery guy said they were shipped from Canada, and claimed that they were cold b/c of the snow. It honestly felt like this tree was in a freezer for a month. The amount of needles this tree has shed in 2 days was also concerning, and it hasn't taken in any of the water we've been filling it up with. We haven't had the tree for a week, and based on the rate it's going at we don't think it'll make it to Christmas. We're so disappointed especially since this was our first xmas tree in our apartment.

Nearly missed this place driving by but got a great Christmas tree! Needless to say this place is…read moreno frills, it's basically a parking lot but the trees are beautiful, Gary was more than willing to be helpful in picking one, tying to our car, explaining best practices to keep the tree alive as long as possible and the price of the tree was the same or better than other places nearby. Would recommend!

Spoke to Brian via phone after filling out a contact form. They got back to me maybe in under an…read morehr, which is faaaasssttttt. Brian gave me a quote ($500 for 300 sq ft of sod), made some some sod recommendations (fescue), and in general it was a smooth, pleasant convo. However, the driver arrived 1.5hr AHEAD of schedule. This wasn't ideal, as I had errands to run... and then I was charged $540 vs $500 as was discussed. There was no heads up about this. Again, I'm impressed with the initial communication and the quick turnaround, but you can't add an 8% price increase without letting me know about it in advance. I wanted to support a local biz, this price was now closer to Home Depot eliminating the savings. Just something to be mindful of, when working with Oceanside Nursery.

I got my tree at Soho trees this year and couldn't be happier. The quality of the tree is totally…read moretop notch. The staff was informative about the different types of trees and cuts and for a very small fee they sent a nice guy to carry it to my place and set it up in the stand. The manager was also a good guy. I accidentally handed him more than I should have and he caught me while I was walking away to point out my mistake. Honest and well informed people selling an excellent product. Not sure else you could want in this situation. Definitely get your tree from them!

This year, the middle layer of lights were non-functional. To continue our tradition, we knew we had to re-do the entire tree with light sets. Knowing the lights we wanted [the originals had lasted 7 years without replacement] - we purchased them and went looking for someone to get them on the tree. After so many Christmas Tree lighting services came and discussed with us WHY THEY COULDN'T DO IT - Yaspis from LightsTOGO asked could we let him try!

East Harlem is lucky to have this local Urban Garden Center for plants nearby, under the Metro…read moreNorth on Park Avenue. I'm not normally buying plants or plant-related products because the only success I've had in my apartment is one type of succulent (the Hobbit Jade Plant) that seems to thrive no matter what. That being said, I wanted to combine two separate plants into one pot on my window sill and needed the soil and a rectangular planter. Note - The only rectangular planters I saw were plastic, the soil was pricy compared to Home Depot, and an additional Hobbit Jade Plant was pricier there than what I've seen elsewhere. That being said, there may be other items competitive in price or not available elsewhere... plus (at least for me) it's convenient. Plus, it sells items like soil in smaller quantities, which may be convenient for people with small apartments. Recommend coming and checking Urban Garden Center out, including its chickens both in the hen house and roaming around free range!

Avoid this business!!!: UGC justifies bad behavior without apology. Customers are not respected,…read morefrom rude staff answering the phone with attitude, lack of communication regarding stated arrival time, to poor installation of plants that is not done with accepted standard practice of professional gardeners for the health of plants. Also, the plants that cost me a couple of thousand dollars had many broken branches because the workers rushed to install them. They also want payment up front before any delivery/installation/scheduling. It was a horrible and stressful experience. Informing the owner of my experience resulted only in his making excuses for USG's bad actions with no apology whatsoever. ***And because I posted my review, the owner Dimitri vindictively told me that he would no longer stand behind the plants or the work done to make things right. He didn't like my honest review. Prior to my review, he was willing to make right his failures, if needed. It is disappointing that UGC is unable to acknowledge its mistakes or shortcomings, and that they do not know how to interact with customers.
