Golden Gate Nursery has a good selection of plants, pots, hay, feed and all the cute garden tchotchkes you desire. On a recent visit, some of the plants were looking a little rough, including the salvias I bought, but with the recent heatwave, it's no wonder some plants aren't looking their best. The guys are helpful if you need hay or bags of garden soil loaded and someone always asks if you need help, when they see you browsing the plant aisles. They have a good variety of healthy plants. although the bougainvillea selection was way down, which is why I stopped by on this visit. Prices are mostly reasonable and plants I've bought at this garden center have done well. The store has a covered area and sun area, so you can see plant requirements at a glance. Gardening in zone 10 can be a challenge, but Golden Gate Nursery has you covered. read more

I love, love, love this place! George and his whole staff are just as friendly and helpful as can be. Very knowledgeable of all things plant, tree, flower, herb, and especially horse related. This has been my go-to spot for almost 30 years! Very competitive pricing, maybe a touch higher on some things, BUT... You get what you pay for and their plants don't die the same week like everywhere else. Props to running a great store! read more

Giant Milkweed sprayed with pesticides!!! I purchased 2 giant milkweed plants and was told by 2 people that the supplier does not spray them however when I brought them home and placed caterpillars on the plant, several emitted slimy green discharge then died. This is an indication that the plants were sprayed with pesticides. When I called to explain what happened I was told we don't spray. I said perhaps you don't but these new plants you just received have been sprayed and several caterpillars died after being on the plants for 1 day. They never offered to refund my money so guess what? I'll never purchase plants from this nursery again. Know your supplier and don't lie to people and if the plant is found to have pesticides refund the customer. read more

They have everything and help to explain plants and also to help with carrying then to your vehicle.

Disappointed. I should have paid attention to previous reviews calling out the owner of this place! The nursery was worthwhile, but the guy who owns the nursery needs to work on his people skills. Treating customers who purchased thousands of dollars of plants like garbage, I can only imagine how he treats his employees. A few of the shrubs we had delivered looked as though they were the runts of the group they had on their property. When we called to check and see if we could bring the runts back to exchange them for healthy plants, we were basically told to go climb a tree and that we should have picked out the specific plants we wanted while we were on the property. The only problem is..., when we were at the nursery, we were told that we couldn't pick the exact individual plants we wanted and that they'd make sure to select the "best" of what they had. You'd think that calling back for a simple exchange the very same day of delivery wouldn't lead to a blowup on the owner's behalf. Not like we tried to swindle him out of healthy plants weeks down the road. Oh well, dude must need a hug or something. read more

The best in the City. Super polite and friendly staff. the very attentive owner Mr. Rufino helped us with many tips. I recommend to everyone read more

The other day I drove past this nursery and decided to check it out in the hopes that they would have some bonsai. While they did have a beautiful desert rose there weren't too many other options. The rest of the nursery was great though. I walked up and down the rows checking out their wide variety of floral options. The rows were interspersed with interesting pots and unique sculptures. The staff was friendly and offered advice on how to best take care of my current ailing plants. I definitely plan on stopping in before I start my next yard project. read more

They have exotic tropical fruit trees that are suited to grow well in Southern Florida. This nursery also has a good selection of ornamentals, ground covers, shrubs, palm, etc., everything you need to have a beautiful garden in zones 9 & 10/11. Everything i planted from here is growing and thriving. The people here are nice. I am a repeat customer and recommend this place to friends and family read more

Their plants are top quality and they have a huge variety. A little pricey but some times you get what you pay for.

Have always had good service, awesome locally owned small business. Typically the plants are high quality and always healthy.

I really wanted to give this nursery five stars. It's the closest to us and the customer service is great. I think the prices are a little bit high but the plants are unique and healthy. I went ahead and purchased over $300 worth of landscaping there. Unfortunately five of my tall grasses have died in a few short weeks and they are still in the original pots; watered more than occasionally besides the rain. When I found this morning they said that they do not have an exchange policy for plants that have died. I am highly disappointed and surprised. Every other nursery I've ever purchased from including the big box will happily replace. This is honestly the first time I've ever had to replace plants. And now I have to pay for them again. Just shaking my head this morning with all the competition that is out there I thought that they could do something for me. read more

Very helpful staff! Great selection of plants and materials. I like their selection of pottery, etc.

Told sales person the type of plant being purchased twice and was charged for a more expensive version. Had to drive back to get the error corrected. Not happy with hearing "it was just a mistake, no one is perfect". It's a family operated business they should know better or have a better way to itemize purchases. read more

I went in needing some Palm fertilizer and was recommended one. It looked Ok and paid $25 for ten pounds. At home I looked at the Home Depots site and the exact fertilizer was $16. Almost a 50% markup! No more for me... read more

Love this place. Not only you can find a large selection of ornamental and fruit trees, but also quality feed for my chickens and goats. You will enjoy this place ambiance even just to walk around and relax. Victor is awesome, as well as Pedro. Very helpful staff, lots of plants to choose from. They carry beautiful pots and decor for the garden. And you will be fascinated by the talking parrot. read more

Very friendly staff and owners....went there for a single plant and left with annuals,perrenials, soil,fertilizer,etc! Best around here by far! read more

Great place to find plants, trees, shrubs, cacti, lawn ornaments, sod and mulch. The guy that helped us outside to pick the correct plants for what we needed was phenomenal and had groups of people waiting for his expertise and assistance. I'll never go to home depot or lowe's again for my outdoor needs. read more

Always a pleasure!!!!! Friendly staff, Extremely knowledgeable on Everything!!!!! If you have a question, they have the answer!! I asked a silly question about my flower beds and I got such great advice....... I was working on it most the day!! Prices also can't be beat! Again folks try to stay with what works. local family businesses! 100% read more

Mixed bag at GGN- great assisting staff- couple of gruff owners that can be a bit passive aggressive. Prices can be ok to outrageous. It's a convenience for the local people. Plant quality is usually good. They used to get a-lot of my business but overpricing had me feeling very disappointed and even upset at times. When that happens it's time to move on. read more

Great customer service and a huge selection. All the plants and flowers look beautiful as they seem well cared for. I went mid-morning on a weekday and the staff was very attentive. They personally took me over to the plants I was interested in and explained about different ground covers I could use as well. Very knowledgeable and helpful. You will likely find plants here that you may not find at other nurseries. read more

Been coming here for years! Always great selection and always someone there to help load up whatever I buy into my vehicle- friendly people and free advice on planting read more

Has potential, but the owner lacks basic communication skills, I'm coming to help your business grow by making a purchase not be spoken to with an attitude. Other associates were nice. Definitely will find a different nursery next time. read more

Went in looking for advice on a transplanted palm tree that isn't doing well, , was recommended a product to use...when I asked for advice on how to use it was told "directions are on back of bottle, take it or leave it "... yep, never again! read more

I went in today, in a desperate attempt to save a small mango tree I believe I'm about to kill for lack of knowledge Victor was extremely kind and helpful. I bought my dirty (the kind he recommended) and I'll give it shot. Hopefully I'll be able to save it with their advice. I'm the kind of person who always liked plants, but I just don't have a green thumb I guess... Maybe it'll work this time! Thanks! read more

Very poor service. I think they gave me an attitude because I'm a young adult. Very rude at the counter, wouldn't even look up at me. Besides that, the sod that I bought from them died. I watered it three times a day. read more

I went in to Golden Gate Nursery with the intention of spending upwards of $20k. The owner Jorge completely blew me off. Told me he was too busy, and when I approached him looked at me and said "What do you want?!?". I responded nothing at all and walked out. If you are having a bad day, that is fine, but NEVER treat customers like this! RUDE! Will never go back in here, and would never recommend them to my worst enemy. read more

My green thumb loves this place and so does my pup, Champ Bailey. They are very helpful, know much about plants and have a huge selection of healthy plants. I have recently been on a bromeliad kick and have been able to find a few here. Healthier than HD or Lowes and good sizes. Unfortunately, not a lot of them at the time I visited the nursery. Their annuals are gorgeous, blooming beautifully and bountiful. Every time I have visited Golden Gate Nursery, everyone on staff has been more than ready to help me with my gardening needs. They always load my car and take care to put down plastic to cover the floor of my SUV. I highly rec. this nursery to all. read more

Good old fashioned customer service here! We had gone to 2 other nurseries and received no help what-so-ever. Then, went to Golden Gate Nursery and JEFF came out to help us right away. He was very informative and helped us pick out just the right plants for our landscaping. The selection was good and prices were reasonable. Check this place out and ask for JEFF if you need help! read more

This Nursery does have all plants that you can't find elsewhere and they also have healthy plants however a very very bad attitude at the counter and it comes from the owner that's the real problem not worth the savings or the plants you could get better off at Home Depot and you can return it if it dies in a year they have no such policy and you have to put up with that attitude very very bad don't go read more

I love coming here for seed, mulch and plants. Service is always very helpful and kind. Beautiful array of landscaping designs and foliage. Prices are reasonable. read more

Awesome place and awesome service, Needed a new Key Lime tree that was a real key lime tree and they not only helped me pick out the best one and how to care for it. They loaded it in my suv for us. Always love dealing with a family owned business, no dummies like at the big box stores. read more

Absolutely amazing service and selection. I've been going to them for 2 years for various projects. Jeff (and anyone else I've ever spoken with there) is extremely knowledgable about everything and takes the time to explain things so your project is successful in the long run. Their prices are great and they deliver. read more

I am compelled to vent about Golden Gate Nursery, about something that should be minor but it didn't turn out that way. I went in today to buy some Blue dog food and impulsively bought this large Piggy(pig) bank that you must break when filled. It was really a great gift. The minor problem that turned into a major issue ??????? A stupid price sticker we all find on store items except I worked on this sticker for 30 minutes while using everything I could find in the house, including Goo Gone. When I finally removed it all, it left a permanent square sticker mark along with some small spots of the first layer of the pig that wore off trying to remove this sticker. Yes, silly right? I will have this experience stamped in my mind, if I ever go back to Golden Gate Nursery. read more
