    Typically I head to Gertens in the warmer months for my gardening needs but on a cold Saturday recently a friend and I needed a change of pace. We decided to go plan shopping, and we're better to go than one of our favorite nurseries. We had such a phenomenally good time. The selection at Gertens is fantastic. So many different types of plants and succulents everything you could want to fill your house with green joy. Let's planters and all the accessories and foods. It's also important is the service. Everyone was so knowledgeable and willing to help. It is a wonderful place to shop. And a fun place to stop when you just need a little warmth.

    I absolutely love Gertens! They have high quality plants for every season. I've mostly visited Gertens in the spring time for spring plants and gardening. Every plant I have purchased from them is hearty and lives for a lot longer than other plants I've purchased elsewhere. This visit I attended their free poinsettia greenhouse tour. This tour provides a behind the scenes look at their growing process. After the tour I shopped in their storeroom that is beautifully decorated for the holidays. It's like walking into a winter wonderland. Gertens has your plant needs covered for any season! You must check them out!

    Girls' Night Out! What a treat! They do several for the holidays and tickets sell out right away. Great value, as you get coupons and gifts and a charcuterie treat, a dessert and a drink. So fun to browse through the beautiful Christmas decorations and gift shop. Of course you will spend money, but well worth it! Enjoy the photos.

    Hometown fave-this place is amazing. I grew up in the area and to see the success of Gergen's is awesome. I stopped in for a new houseplant and the selection was huge and I ended up with plants and a couple of new pots! Always super friendly staff and reasonable prices. Def recommend!!

    I've been coming to this nursery for years and it's consistently one of my favorite places for plants. They always have a great variety--whether I'm looking for flowers, veggies, or something new to experiment with, I usually find it here. Prices are pretty fair overall, especially considering the selection and quality. It's clear they care about their plants and their customers. Highly recommend for anyone looking to add something special to their garden or yard!

    So much fun!! I had no idea Gertens did these workshops! Well worth the money as I could not purchase everything to make the planters at that price. Class was an hour long everything was out and ready, great instruction, lots of room for your own creativity, knowledgeable and friendly staff. Bring your friends and have blast together. Gertens was over the top with everything for Christmas cheer!

    Top quality plants for any season. Excellent selection and great staff. I've always left smiling and look forward to going back, even though my pocket book might not like that.

    Tried to charge me $65 for a basically empty trailer to dump. Don't waste your money here.

    Gertens is a one stop shop for everything you need - 5 stars. I feel really old here but I have to admit, I haven't been to Gertens in well over...20 years! I live in the NW burbs, pretty much the opposite side of the Twin Cities. I made the trip across town to specifically look for giant outdoor planter pots for both sides of my driveway gate. I was looking for 2 big & bold & colorful statement pieces, possibly commercial sized planters. I'm nearly at a loss for words about the size and scope of Gertens. So, so, impressive! They have many acres of EVERYTHING. I've been to many nurseries over the years and I'll be so bold as to call Gertens THE premier nursery in Minnesota. And it seems to be run with military precision. Despite the physical size, the multiple buildings, and the crowds of people, I found parking to be very convenient. They also have tons of employees and I was asked several times if I needed help as I wondered around like a lost puppy. The customer service is great. I even found an outdoor desk with a couple of Master Gardeners on hand to answer questions. This is an amazing place! I found my giant pots. I also checked out many other items that I was interested in like ponds, pond plants, ornamental grasses, and sages. Thumbs up! -Maxx

    Abundant in every way. Varying sections to explore Minnesota's largest selection of plants on a huge extended property line. There is a big parking lot on-site but be warned, it fills up quickly especially on the weekends. The on-site staff is outstanding as you will always find a helper nearby for any questions or clarifications. Stretch carts are offered for larger hauls making it a seamless process especially when purchasing trees. There's an interior gift shop that sells your Patina type goodies such as t-shirts, soaps, hand towels, etc. along with a great grill section that has various rubs, traegers, aprons, and BBQ tool sets. I could go on and on about the plants, mulch, hanging baskets, etc. but you'll have to witness the beauty for yourself. We got lucky and had North Star Donuts food truck serving donuts and cold brew which are the perfect combo for shopping in April. Happy gardening, BBQ'ing or gift shop buying! The world is yours.

    Gerten is kind of like going to the Como Conservatory but you get to bring things home. The selection of things are nice, and what I do like is that some of the tomato and pepper plants are already getting big and will start bearing fruit before anything else you have planted. Gerten's has become a behemoth in the south metro. The place is always busy but if you go after work? You can enjoy the place.

    There was no UNDO button so my husband and I got in the car and drove all the way to Gerten's, recommended by our landscape designer.

    Love this neighborhood little (not that so little) nursery. They have variety of Japanese maple,…read moreand a lot of gardening decoration accessories. You can find some rare plants or flower here. They have a lot of different size pots and designs. They have very good customer service, willing to assist. Some plants are well price and others are a little bit more expensive but because of their rare uniqueness so if it's what you're looking for, don't mind paying for the price. Love their metal urns and and garden figurines.

    Highland is my favorite nursery in the Cities; they have a huge selection, from perennials to…read moreannuals to veggies to trees to houseplants, & everything always looks SO healthy. They also have a huge store inside with more colors & varieties of pots than you could ever want, plus assorted other supplies and knick knacks. I would say price-wise, they're about on par with other standalone nurseries (forget box store prices for gnat-infested plants that die within a month); they do have a wide selection of cheaper, smaller plants as well. Everyone who's ever helped me at Highland, from folks working outside to the checkout clerks, has always been so kind & super helpful. Everyone either seems to know everything, or they can at least direct you to someone who has the answers. My only gripes are: the parking lot is small & people don't always navigate it in the most efficient way; there's plenty of street parking, though, which I usually opt for instead. Pushing a car through the yard isn't always the easiest, so folks with mobility concerns should keep that in mind. That being said, I'm almost positive one of the lovely employees would help if you need it :) This nursery rocks & I can't recommend it enough!
