Ready for the season!
Ronit M.

Really knowledgeable staff and pretty plants everywhere! They also have a storybook section for anyone to see during certain holidays like Xmas. We came here and purchased a tree and some Christmas decorations. It is on the pricier side of nurseries in my experience, but I also feel like all of LI is the same way. Overall you get quality service and insight here. This place is huge. They have an indoor and outdoor section. It also gets really warm inside; the staff say that they bake in winter and broil in summer. They also have a separate building on the property for picking up large items and landscape design. I remember a long time ago they had a little counter to order hot cocoa from, but I didn't see it this time or maybe no one was operating it. I have the black thumb of death and they helped me select a plant that is easy to maintain and though sometimes it looks like it's dying it's been alive since June or July of 2025! It's really pretty with purple flowers. And that reminds me I should check on it! We moved it to the shed because it got cold outside. Happy shops! Happy shops!

Another update for this lovely garden center... If you're a fan of gardens and are looking for something fun to do solo or even for the whole family that costs nothing, then their Annual Flower & Garden Show is for you! This year's theme is board games. You'll find stunning garden landscapes that have been transformed into whimsical board games and backyard fun amid vivid colors and lush greenery. Think Candy Land, Dungeons and Dragons, Jenga, backyard tree houses, and more! Get your selfie stick ready or your kids prepped for some fun photo ops!

Annual Flower Show

I started visiting Hicks nursery over 40 years ago. My parents and grandparents brought me there every December to mail a letter to Santa. It used to be an absolutely incredible place. It's still nice but the vibe has changed and it just doesn't feel as 'special' as it used to. I would have given the old Hicks a 5-star rating (no doubt about it) but the Hicks I visited today... slightly disappointing.

It's like every planter's dream! Hicks Nurseries can easily be my favorite garden center and plant nursery! They have an extensive selection of plants, gardening supplies and garden decor. They also host a few displays throughout the year like their Annual Flower & Garden Show, Summer Garden Displays, Fall Festival, Magical Christmas Wonderland with a Santa! They also have a plant swap with opportunities to speak with experts and trade plants. Walking through the store can be uplifting through sights and smells. I love this store!!

Don't forget to bring your letter to Santa! (include a self addressed stamped envelope if you want a response!)

There's a reason why my family has gotten their christmas trees from Hicks for the last 30+ years. They consistently have some of the best of the best. The interior green house is always stocked and has an abundance of plants available year round. The staff couldn't be more friendly. We also love coming for the walk through story book, as it's a highlight of every holiday season (WE LOVE OTTO!!) Make sure you bring something non perishable for the food drive buckets. Their christmas decorations are wide, and they also have a number of prelit trees available (if that's your thing) My kids love it, and we'll continue to support this family business for years to come

Walk through

This place is awesome. They have tons of indoor plants. Everything is super organized. They had Christmas decorations out and a whole area dedicated to Christmas. We went specifically for the Halloween walk through and to play outside. The indoor Halloween walk through was very creative and cute. Outside they had golf, ring toss and a bunch of places to take photos. On the weekends for a fee I believe they had pumpkin decorating, hay rides and other activities. I needed some outdoor plants for my front yard and they had so many mock set ups and tons of bushes, trees etc.

This was our first visit to this Nassau nursery (driving from mid-Suffolk). We came to this nursery mid-March for the advertised Flower show, on an early Sunday morning, missing the rush. It's quaint, cute, about a 10-15 minute walk thru at moderate pace. Each section was designed by a different person with a different theme. All beautiful, well planned and thoughtfully pieced together. For a March morning it was chilly but do not fear the display is inside and fairly warm. Still very early in the season most of the plants for sale were for indoors at least for the next month. They had several Easter arrangements for sale as well in a small outdoor section. They have everything and more for your gardening needs, even a repotting stand if you don't quite trust yourself. There are tools, pots, statues, outdoor furniture, bulbs, wind chimes, bird houses, the list goes on and on. We are looking forward to returning later in the season to see the assortment of summer flowers and festivities for a review update. Bring your checkbook or at least Apple Pay, you will spend a pretty penny.

It's the time of jollity and festivity - that time immediately following Thanksgiving when Christmas trees and lights, holly and berries, garland and ornaments twinkle upon the many trees both pines and plastics. One day I shall have candles upon the trees arms of my Christmas trees, just like in the Walton's Christmas Special, how do they balance them so safely and snug as the cricket in the hearth? The entitled Long Islanders sipping Starbucks are impatiently waiting in their German engineered suburban SUV sleds making a belt around the entire extended parking lot. I guess they were in a drive up and drive thru line to pick up their Christmas tree that they must have ordered online or by the phone, I took little notice. It's a disturbing site to behold, what a situation to take part in and I'm walking into the store quickly to remove myself from this potentially volatile situation if there's a tree or wreath shortage. I could just see the windows pop as with the Cabbage Patch run of 1984 at Macy's Herald Square, people can turn quickly if they don't get what they want, when they want it and 34th Street will never be the same for me, we need another Miracle on 34th. The prices seem kinda higher than I'd remember from Christmas past on the artificial trees so the fun of window and wall shopping seems to be the plan minus some chatchka ornaments as tree hole fillers we might need. Nearing the thousand dollar level for a seven to eight footer isn't making me merry and Santa has to be slightly pissed too as he observed from his looking glass globe at the prices and rubs his white gloves upon to examine more clearly the pricetags. I guess If the elves built these artificial trees with elvish pixie wood and came home with us to set it all up, decorated and made me gummy muffin treats, candy canes with sweet syrupy toppings and raspberry dressing. I've no idea what it is but that and Figgy Pudding is a Must before the clock strikes midnight on 12/24/2024. If these elves popped out of the Christmas tree box with WARNING: ELVES INCLUDED INSIDE, I'd delight in that Christmas Day morning with all of us together. Dogs and Elves tearing wrapping papers together to reveal what Santa Claus brought them, imagine that. Upon reaching the decorated Christmas tree section, I was feeling the Christmas spirit with a dazzling display of the cherished traditions of green to white to multicolored display trees, one as beautiful as the next. It's all about the uniqueness to your families style, things have changed since I was a boy. The vibrant colors of LED lights reflecting off the garlands layering and large doll ornaments and the glittery ones are the ones I like best, how they reflect the lights and the beauty of the holiday. Stars and angels towards the top compliment the decorations below. We walked outside and immediately the wonderful pine scent of Douglas Fur, Frazier Fur hit us, gosh what a fully encompassing moment that was to behold. My family always has taken the artificial tree route and I always wanted a real one, parents just didn't listen to us kids back then As we continue passage through the leaning shrubbery, lifting and spinning with them like a little dance to locate the prices. Gosh how I love the authenticity of the pine needles and the feel of the bark of the trunk as we twirl together. But their prices were double from what's sold in Queens and the supply was running a bit thin in the time that we were there, (3pm) so we left.

Came here for Hicks Nurseries Annual Flower and Garden show- enjoyed every minute of it. This is a family friendly event where kids can do a mini scavenger hunt within the huge flower shop, and adults can browse around the store in peace while viewing some exciting new gardening decors. Was delighted to have fellow Yelper Nancy A. accompanied me to this event and had a good time with the kids. Hicks staff really took their time to curate every section of this flower show and the attention to details really brings out the grand colors of the displays. There were some great discounted deals on small plants and flower pots- Nancy even purchased a few potted plants for her home too. Overall, a great experience and would love come back again next year.

Wow another year with a delightful spring presentation Thank you for all your hard work and dedication for the community to sample local flowers/plants. Through your displays i purchase and plant on my property. The selections vary and there's always a sale. The lawn and patio furniture are comparable to front gate . Which is what we need and expect. Brightly lit, accessible, fair and competitive pricing. A must visit ( every season)
