I've been shopping at Cornelius nurseries for 20 years and each seems to be a little different. This one is on the smaller side. They had a good variety of hibiscus. The geraniums for $9.99 did not look fresh and appeared dry and yellowish. They had some interesting petunias. I left after buying plants and felt less satisfied from my usual experience with them so I also stopped by their Voss location today -the geraniums there for $9.99 were gorgeous and colorful and well watered. The staff were so cheerful and helpful and greeting all of us and made a big effort to do so. I happily bought more plants there. Room for improvement at this location. read more

Had to give a huge shoutout to Dustin at the Katy-Fulshear location -- he keeps the place spotless and incredibly organized. It really shows, and it's appreciated! read more

Cornelius Nursery had some awesome sales for Mother's Day. I went here to pick up some plants and was so glad that I had this gem saved under my bookmarks. Instead of picking up some plants, I actually found great buys on some of their fruit trees, which I have been wanting for some time. 50% off of all fruit trees during their Mother's Day sale. I picked out an olive and a cherry tree. Awesome find, considering all other places that we visited did not have as near as a good buy. Will definitely return! read more

Great selection and comfortable shopping Staff was very helpful. It is close to our home. read more

A step up from Home Depot and Lowes and just above the red and yellow place. This garden center has good quality plants plus nice succulents and other things garden wise. I like the layout but one must realize wet and muddy isles outside is standard practice in any well maintained gardening center. We have purchased a nice chiminea for a very reasonable amount from this location last year during a special for a great deal$ The vegetables are always in good shape with good selections. Interesting new plants and some unusual items for you to see. Well worth the trip. read more

Stopped by in hopes to find carnivorous plants. Got lucky with a Venus fly trap and a tropical pitcher plant. Even grabbed a cute little echeveria. I was impressed with the selection of plants. We even saw a little pineapple plant, so cute. All the plants looked very healthy and the staff was very helpful and friendly. read more

Amazing helped me pick out just what I needed . Everything was planted and looks terrific .

Nico was a huge blessing for me and my wife as we were looking forward trees for our new home! He was knowledgeable and helped steer us to the right trees. The entire store staff was helpful setting up our delivery and planting. I recommend Cornelius! read more

If you want flowers & bushes, this is the place for you. I was looking for fruits and vegetables. The strawberries and tomatoes looked good. Was sad to see they were attempting to sell a nice vice broccoli and brussel sprouts. Both are winter veggies in this area. They had a tiny section for food gardeners. read more

So glad this opened after the one at Dairy Ashford closed. This is a great place if you want to find something more unique than you will find at the locally named chain. It has great garden decor and decor center as well. The only thing missing is a great burger spot next door, but still glad to have them here. read more

I love Cornelius in Katy. The staff are professional, friendly, knowledgeable and accommodating. I've been going to the Katy location since it opened years ago. Susan in the gift shop, Marie at the register and others always greet customers with a big smile. Under the direction of Eddie, the manager, Cornelius has grown. it is the premiere location in Katy for gifts or gardening. Jan Glenn read more

Stopped into the Cornelius Nursery Katy location today just to see what plants were surviving the heat of August. They had plenty that were beautiful. I was trying to decide on what I wanted when Nicholas came over to inquire if I needed any help. He is the nicest, most helpful gentleman. He always has a smile and ready to help with advice when asked. I bought some plants and the fertilizer he recommended. Can't wait for a little cooler weather to enjoy my garden. read more

Manager Eddie apologized for the refund delay. He brought the refund amount to my house. Very Satisfied

My favorite local nursery. Lots of great plants and fun even to just walk around and look. I've bought veggies and flowers. Most recently I got seven on-sale end-of-the-planting-season peppers. The peppers lasted a long time (despite my benevolent neglect) and produced well. Admittedly, I've never tried to talk to anyone or ask questions, but the people at the checkout were always nice and we got out quickly. read more

I love this nursery and it's wide variety of indoor/outdoor plants. They also have pots,seeds,bulbs, and Calloways organic soil which I love. Would recommend this place to anybody looking for a good nursery. read more

No longer a customer service nursery. Just go to the competitor that's cheeped. Went to ask a question and buy a lot of plants. They called for Eddie who never showed up after 20 mins of waiting. 8 people in the one line to check out. Tried to ask my question and the 3 people I asked just said they were stockers. Not what they used to be. Save your money. read more

Wonderful selection & amazing customer service! Nicholas was INCREDIBLE. He made my buying process a breeze - especially when I'm not a plant person. I will be back! read more

A muddy mess! Couldn't even look like I wanted to with dirty water and mud everywhere. I didn't want to get my shoes muddy and track mud in my car so I left. read more

Awesome selections and the fact that they're organic keeps me coming back. Keep it up

I used their landscaping service for my front and back yard. Rebecca had wonderful suggestions and was very flexible. She understood that I had no experience and she took care of everything. Her ideas were beautiful and when when we asked for options she gave more than enough suggestions. The crew that came out was amazing! Miguel was very helpful and the scope of work was completed quickly and professionally. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a full service landscaping project. read more

LOVE this nursery! Plants are very healthy and show signs of new growth. I went to buy some blooming annuals for my flower beds. Unlike the other garden centers I went to first, Cornelius had a large variety of blooming annuals and perennials, all nice size and very healthy. I had difficulty making up my mind about which ones I wanted! Many businesses are still ramping up and trying to get back to normal after the Covid Pandemic. I'm sure they will add more employees again as business picks up speed. read more

Great experience buying a few trees from this Cornelius location and the one in Sugarland! So thankful for the employees that took the time to help educate me ok what I was buying and for their help loading my truck. Will definitely be back read more

I was really excited to know that Cornelius (a long time Houston favorite) was coming to Katy. But...it's not "that" Cornelius. Apparently this nursery just bought the rights to the name - and their selection certainly shows that it's not quite the same. Is it a "good" nursery? Certainly by the big box standards but it carries no natives, and their growers do (regardless of what they tell you) often use systemic pesticides. I know this because I gave in and bought some host plants -- and every caterpillar died a painful green death once fed the Cornelius plants. Some of the staff is knowledgeable. Most are not - but for weekly specials and end-of-planting-season discounts, they are a good alternative to the big box stores. read more

Stopped here because we were in the area, and LET ME TELL YOU. There were so many BEAUTIFUL HAPPY plants! The staff were knowledgeable, kind and helpful! read more

We were there today and had the most bizarre experience. I left my husband with some employees to ask about the XL hibiscus, which were out of stock. I went shopping in the shop and when i came out he was still standing and they had just ignored him the whole time. They did not apologize. We had to walk to another lady at the cashier that happily helped us and confirmed they do indeed still carry the XL hibiscus. We are now at Houston Garden Center. I am listening to my husband lecture about customer service is dead. Lol. read more

I am always a fan of Cornelius for their beautiful, healthy-looking plants and helpful staff. This newest Cornelius location just opened. It appears much smaller than the Voss Road location, but they have a nice selection of plants and pottery. Some of their pottery is so beautiful and colorful -- the Delft colors, flowers, etc. Nice addition to the pottery selection. There is a gift/custom florist area inside with a nice choice of gifts. It's decorated very "cutely" for Easter. There is ample parking, ample staff, and easy freeway access. Nice addition to Katy. read more

Gotta' tell you that Katy has been long overdue for a nursery the caliber of Cornelius! Home Depot on Fry Road is the #1 HD garden center in the USA, but with Cornelius combination of healthy plants, incredible customer service, and a beautiful gift shop, it should quickly become a #1 stop for gardeners in Katy. I have bought several plants from the red and yellow store. Good prices (ONLY if you have a coupon!) but what good are they if they die? IMHO, Cornelius has always had better plants that always lived. (Might be my perception, but it seems that way!) Cornelius Nurseries always had the most unique and healthy plants I ever decided to grow. And they endorse the best-kept secret in horticulture: SuperThrive! Eddie and Dino are but two of the Cornelius experts that deserve your attention. They are knowledgable and really eager to share their knowledge. If there were 6 stars, I would give it to this group. So glad they are finally in Katy! read more

I love this store and am so glad to have it back out in Katy! The quality of the plants is always superior and the seasonal decorations are among the best you can buy anywhere in Houston. Highly recommend! read more
