This location is NOT closed. Don't know why anyone is reporting this. Please fix the YELP notice to correct this. I stopped by last week, for the second time and received the same, excellent, cheerful, and knowledgeable service as I did the first time. Kurt's Garden has an excellent variety of trees and bushes. I showed up with lots of pics/ideas of what I was looking for. Since I knew I was going to have a lot of questions i.e. I needed some handholding, I tried to make sure I arrived at a time with less traffic. I found their prices to be commensurate with what I was seeing online and I'd much prefer to support a local business, so I will be back! I haven't made a purchase yet, but only because I'm worried about planting right now, with this horrible heat wave. read more

I really wanted to go local and hire this place to do a few acres of landscaping after a friend who worked there was telling me regularly how well they care for their plants. I figured I would try them out and purchased about 10 plants for around $500. All of the plants did pretty well considering the heat wave we were experiencing when I purchased them. Within a week the most expensive tree, a conifer, I purchased for about $150 started to show signs of disease and began wilting heavily. I contacted them for support and they recommended a fertilizer which I tried with no success. After I followed up with them for more support, sent pictures, explained that the other 8 plants I purchased were doing fine they recommended I continue to water it. Three days later the tree was wilting very badly so I called again. Several days after I contacted them for the second time someone responded telling me it looked like heat stress and that the tree should recover. It didn't. I messaged again to ask if I could exchange the tree or receive some sort of credit given how all other plants I purchased where surviving and this one tree (the most expensive) began to die with in less than a week of bringing it home. The person told me they would ask Kurt and would get back to me. That was over a month ago and I haven't received any reply. In many way I'm very grateful I did a small test run with this business before committing to a much larger project. Never-the-less I am deeply disappointed in the service and complete lack of care for my situation. I understand that plants are living and results of their continued health becomes uncertain when they are moved off-site. I wouldn't have been too upset if anyone had just communicated with me about their policies, or provided even a small discount on future purchases as a means of acknowledging the unfavorable results or to demonstrate that customer service had any priority to them. Unfortunately none of that happened. I wish I could feel good about supporting a smaller local business but in stark contrast to Kurt's garden the surrounding local hardware stores had pricing that was a bit lower and their service was 1000% better. They were available to answer questions the same day or within 24 hrs. and actually wanted to make sure all the plants I purchased from them survived a week or two after I purchased them. Given the experience between buying from a smaller local business which offers higher pricing and smaller selection and seems like they couldn't care less about the interactions their customers have or the survival of the plants they raise with so much extra care and attention it justifies the higher the price point, and a box store which has lower pricing, responds to customers concerns and actually reconciles errors, I'm going to be choosing the local big box store for my larger project. Really disappointed in my experience here. read more

Beware, the lady in the front office is the troll gate keeper. She doesn't want any questions only book you and spend your money. I was on the list for both monthly maintenance and irrigation repair. It took many times of emailing and calling to get a response of when they would be coming out. Finally they arrived and the service was sub par. When I asked exactly what the maintenance guys did for two hours for a total of 350 I was given a flippant and rude answer that it takes a while to see the results and to just give it time... then an email dropping me as a customer which leaves me in a lurch as far as my irrigation project and keeping my 2 acres of plants alive in the summer heat. Definitely not a professional and friendly business. I would stay clear. Kurt the owner and main guy is super knowledgeable and I worked with him before but sadly he's no longer the main person. It's just his name on the sign. read more

I purchased over $600 worth of fruit trees, butterfly bushes, pomegranate bush and red Bud lavender twist. My professional landscaper planted them. All are thriving except the butterfly bushes. I talked to Kurt and explained what was going on.- that it was possible there were white flies although my pest control man and I did not see any. I told him I was using Dawn soap, a little bit is neem oil and water. He said that was fine. As the plants got worse I took photos and bought them in. I also brought in leaf samples. I was told repeatedly talk to Kurt. I never got a response after 2 emails and several phone calls. One of his employees checked in with him- He offered 20 percent off on a single purchase and no credit for butterfly bushes which came to $76.00. I do not feel that this is a fair solution. He never spoke to me himself. We have other landscaping to do. I will not be going back read more

Apparently no one in this business is academically trained in horticulture but instead of admitting it, they literally attack you if you dare to know something about plants. The women he employs will bully you into the ground. They are combative and contentious. We have actually never even seen Kurt. We get the feeling none of them actually know anything about trees or what they sell. They sell trees. This is all. They sell trees. Period. This is like someone who sells cars and knows nothing about cars, isn't that interested in cars, don't ask them about cars, just buy the car. We won't go back. read more
