    Jim had just completed landscaping our new neighbor's property. We observed first-hand the team's…read moreadmirable work ethic, impressive stoneworking skills, and overall mastery of that job. So we contacted Jim about building stairs along our steep driveway and down along the slope of our hillside home. He was immediately responsive, friendly, and straightforward with his communication. A crew of two, Elias and Gustavo, did a fantastic job of building by hand beautiful and functional walls and access paths through our property. They finished yesterday. Now for planting. The job was done quickly, the price was fair, the cleanup impeccable. We look forward to working with Columbia Gorge Landscape again and recommend the business without hesitation.

    What a joke! But too bad it's on me with the large amount of money I've wasted and have to have…read moreanother landscaper fix. From cheap sod that was installed with no top soil for prep (that I battled all summer to stay alive) to a sprinkler system that needs to be redone (not enough heads, not enough valves) I wouldn't have known about the sprinkler system until another contractor came today to blow out my lines for winter preparation. BUT I can't have them blown out, because the box was installed completely wrong and there is no way to blow them out. The new contractor showed me the wrong fittings that were installed and then drove me over to several neighbors houses to show me how a correct box is installed. And then one of those neighbors claimed "Oh, you hired him as well? Me too and had to have everything redone by another landscaper" Pathetic that some contractors will take advantage of new people moving into the area.

    Bennie is extremely knowledgeable. In the past years since our neighborhood nursery closed, we've…read morebeen searching for a source of hanging flower baskets that were even close to being as nice. This year, we finally found Bennie's! She allowed us to make custom pre-orders in January when she was still selecting flowers. She showed us her Proven Winners catalog and had great suggestions for what would grow well together. Today we picked up our baskets and they look fabulous. I can't wait to see what they look like in August! The only disappointment was that with 11 hanging baskets in the Suburban, I only had room to take home 1 more plant. So back to Bennie's we'll go to bring home some beautiful geraniums, lavender, clematis, roses, or dozens of other annuals and perennials. Everything looked extremely healthy and vigorous. Customers are spoiled for choice, and prices are extremely reasonable. Well worth the 3 hour round trip!

Then 2 years went by and we wanted more flowering cherry trees and for some reason we bought them elsewhere. Out of the 4 we bought elsewhere only 1 survived. We recently bought 3 more from Bennie's. Plus their flower selection is pretty phenomenal. And the gals there know what they're doing.

    This nursery is a hidden gem! I was told by another nursery to call them to see if they had a plant…read moreafter calling all over town for it. To my surprise they had an entire flat of starts! I live in Portland so I took a little drive there and what a beautiful selection of annuals and perrenials. The staff is super friendly and I've gone back a couple of times as they have a unique selection of plants.

    I'm still reeling with excitement from my visit to Alderbrook gardens several days ago. I've quite…read moreexhausted my husband with constant exclamations of "oh, and they had this," and "it was so inexpensive!" and "they were so helpful and nice!" and so forth. They have no advertising or signage up, thus when I arrived I thought maybe they were wholesale only. But it's hard to deter me from plants so I marched on in, and the lovely woman who greeted me was friendly and helpful as could be, confirming they were open to the public and handing off a box to fill with treasures. They also have handy wagons available. The nursery is very large, and every time I thought I'd seen everything the next corner would reveal another greenhouse. I quickly filled a box with herbs of every sort, then another with healthy perennials, strawberries, and even a mix of daffodils and narcissus. Oh, and don't forget they have houseplants! I got so much good stuff, but a few favorite finds were peonies, bleeding hearts, astilbe, purple basil, salad burnet, Vietnamese coriander, lemon verbena, Labrador violets, eucalyptus, hardy ferns, and lantana. They are cash or check only, so come prepared. It's worth going a little (or a lot!) out of your way if you usually only utilize card payments. The prices are eminently reasonable, and they even offer discounts on flats. Oh, and they are well known for their fabulous hanging baskets!

    Absolutely incredible, enchanting nursery! OMG, I am in love! They have all the norms - annuals,…read moreperennials, veggies, herbs, roses, shrubs, trees - but the variety within each is like nothing I have ever seen before. So unique! The plants are healthy and thriving. I wanted everything! Gerbera daisies are one of my favorite flowers. With their bright colors of yellow, orange, red and pink, they remind me of happy faces and I always plant them in my containers. In winter months, I buy bouquets to brighten up my space. Typically I buy the yellows and oranges, which I call sunshine colors. At Good News Gardening, they had a variety that I had never seen; the petals were much thinner and in abundance, adding so much texture and whimsy. Even though the tag said Gerbera, I had to ask one of the ladies working there if it was, indeed, a Gerbera Daisy! Next year, this is where I will buy them, no question. As I wandered around, I noticed every section had unique varietals. The dahlias were the size of a dinner plate and the colors of peach, yellow, white and pink in one flower stopped me in my tracks. Only to be outdone by the vibrant orange and white striped variety. In the herb section, options are boundless. At least a dozen types of oregano. Spicy Italian oregano? Yes, please! Dozens of types of mint (plant only in a contained area) and so many varieties of basil. More types of lettuce and tomatoes than I had ever heard of or eaten. This incredulous reaction occurred in every area that I visited. I have been gardening for 40 years and today I learned so much! Wow. Inside they have houseplants and a huge section of seeds. I'm totally into Oregon wildflowers like the delicate blue cornflower, bright orange California poppy, yellow & orange milkweed and yarrow to name a few. They had seed packets of each or mixed. Lots of seeds for veggies, too. The section was extensive! When you are inside you will be serenaded by the dozens of little birds that found their way in and are sitting on the poles or in the rafters singing their songs! Everyone here is happy, and who wouldn't be?! Everyone working there was super friendly and helpful. They genuinely love what they do and are so knowledgeable. They don't just want to sell you something, they want what you purchase to grow and thrive. Shout out to Maria who shared my love for that incredible Gerbera Daisy and showed me all the different colors it came in. Prices are a bit higher but the quality and uniqueness makes it totally worth it. Next year, I will head directly here without even stopping anywhere else. With my limited amount of space for flowers, I only want the best and unique!

But about 3 to 4 weeks ago we purchased 2 rose's bunches. planted them the same one is dead. so all I wanted was a replacement. did not expect a refund.

    Beautiful floral shop that has a wide variety of houseplants, pots, succulents, large planters,…read morecards & gifts in addition to making lovely floral arrangements and bouquets. While driving down 12th Street, the lush green plants in the window caught my attention. The next day I had to come back and check it out. The owner and those working there are so friendly in that small town way that doesn't exist in many places. Well it's on full display here! When I explained that I was trying to replace two orange bromeliads, they offered to order some for me. Bromeliads or any plant I need that is not in the store. When I mentioned that my large aloe is covered in white, scale fungus or mites, they informed me that it is lacking light . I've Googled this a dozen times and that never came up! Shopping here is as much about getting educated on how to care for your plants to as it is about finding a specific plant. The goal is for the plant to thrive long term. While perusing the shop, I noticed some planters filled with three or four indoor houseplants that would be a stunning gift or an arrangement for your own home. Especially the ones that had a pop of color from the African Violets. I may have to go back for one! All the plants were healthy and thriving. There were anthurium with waxy, shiny, red heart shaped leaves; snake plants that are so easy to maintain; lots of pathos that are super easy to grow; an assortment of orchids in multiple colors; and a plethora of succulents and air plants. The shop is small but everything is styled so nicely that they fit in a lot of inventory while still keeping it spacious so customers can easily make their way around. Loved everything about this shop! So happy to find a plant and floral shop in the heights of Hood River.
