My friends and I stopped by to look around -- one of us was actually hoping to buy something for their garden. While browsing, we used the restroom (which was available to customers), and shortly after, the man working there -- an older gentleman with glasses -- snapped at us with an incredibly rude, "So are you going to buy something or what?" We calmly replied, "We're just looking around for now," and his response? "So you just come in here and use the bathroom and leave?" At that point, I literally had something in my hand I was planning to buy. But after being harassed like that, I put it right back down and walked out. That kind of accusatory tone and hostility is unacceptable. This kind of customer treatment is outrageous. I'm a frequent shopper of local nurseries, and I've never encountered anything like this. If you value a welcoming atmosphere and respectful service, steer clear of this place -- especially the man with glasses. There are plenty of other nurseries that will treat you like a customer, not a nuisance.

I had a reservation at the Farmhouse restaurant, but arrived early and decided to explore a shop I noticed near the side entrance. The moment I stepped inside, it felt like being transported somewhere magical. The atmosphere alone is worth the visit. The boutique shops lean toward the high end, offering everything from home décor and art to unique jewelry. As you wander through, you're surrounded by lush greenery--the central garden and nursery are filled with a stunning variety of outdoor plants. Along one side, you'll find thoughtfully arranged merchandise, from seeds to greeting cards and gift packaging, with a charming pottery section tucked at the very end. Upstairs, there's a lovely deck featuring patio furniture and hanging plants, perfect for inspiration. The pathway leading to the restaurant is especially memorable, with a series of archways that add to the enchanting, almost storybook-like feel. It's also a peaceful haven for wildlife--I spotted sparrows, hummingbirds, and bumblebees throughout the space, which made the experience even more enjoyable. Parking is easy, with plenty of free spaces available. A beautiful spot to stroll, shop, and dine--all in one place.

He took the time to answer all of our questions and made the experience really enjoyable -- thank you, Kai! This place is usually my go-to spot, and I genuinely love the vibe here. That said, on this visit it was harder than usual to find help in the outdoor area. While several team members were available indoors, they were unwilling to answer questions and directed us to find someone outside instead. After some searching, we finally found Kai. I understand that roles can be divided, but this felt different from the level of customer service I've experienced here in the past. Overall, still a place I enjoy -- and Kai's help truly made a difference for us

Green Thumb Nursery was a great decision and was suggested by one of my friend...It was my first…read moretime and ill come back...They have great selections if plants, flowers, trees, decors, outdoor stuffs. Water fountains and list goes on...The price was cheaper than the other nursery that usually I go so it was reasonably priced...The workers were gem...So kind...They were so patient and knowledgeable...This place is one of the places that you can find CITRUS tree but you can bring out to the nursery and you need tell one of the employees to keep it for you aside (due to citrus quarantine). As you know bringing them out could spread problems like citrus greening disease or even pests to other healthy trees...So be cautious! Im happy that they had the tree so no problem to keep it aside till the shopping is done. Citrus pricing was great for example: 7 Gal was $79.99 plus tax and 15 Gal was $249.99. So great bargain. Inside, also is therapy...Gorgeous decoration and they were so selective about every piece they sell so it was an enjoyable shopping experience. Also, i love their return policy they have 1 year exchange or store policy and i attached it for review. I ended up buying lot of cute things that i didnt have plans to buy but its ended up another great selection to my little garden. There is also a big parking lot so no worries to find a place and YES its crowded bit you can manage it easily.

Last Fall we hired The Standard Design and Nursery to refurbish and plant our front yard. What a…read moredisaster! The design looked good and the results were just horrible. They "dumped" old roses and plants in our yard and charged us triple the price that Plant World and Roger's Garden charge for the same plants. (We went to each of those nurseries to compare prices). On top of that Standard refused to replace dead plants, did not stick to the design that we approved and paid for, did not plant all of the flowers we paid for, and in general did a lousy job which cost a fortune. We recommend to NEVER do business with Standard on Ortega Highway! (If you are interested in viewing their plants, contact us and we will show you what old and woody rose bushes look like! And also a $3000 orange bush which was not in the plan but that we were charged for.... Plus a $1000 "warranty"! )

A cautionary tale: in our most recent visit, we were very disappointed in the service. A bit of…read morebackground is that six months ago we spent over $1500 on plants from them. They warranty their plants so when one of them died, we went in for replacement (it was one of 3 of the same variety). They didn't have the plant in stock so they said they would put in a special order. Many weeks later we'd heard nothing back so we went into the store. Dianne, a manager , admitted that they would not be able to get the special order. So we selected a replacement plant. The original plant cost $35 and the replacement plant we selected was only $25. But apparently they neglected to note in their system that the special order was to replace a plant under their warranty. So they charged us for the plant! Their mistake: they have lost a good customer over a plant that probably cost them $13 bucks. Their plants are more expensive and higher quality than the big box stores, but don't expect them to stand behind their warranty.

A 30 gallon, Lawn and Leaf size plastic trash bag. No paper wrap, no bubble wrap, nothing. Most ridiculous thing I've seen from a "upscale store."

Initially, service was wonderful, a pleasant lady asked if I needed any help. Found a lamp yay! Nice discount yay! Pay. They plop it into a CLEAR trash bag. I walk out with said bag. I see black dirt all over the cream shade. Walk back in. Uhh... excuse me I think you gave me a dirty bag. Lady started making an excuse...but no go because it's OBVIOUS the bag literally had dirt in it. No matter! They'll just use sticky tape to pick up the dirt from the shade and put it ANOTHER trashbag. PLUS, they took out the bulb that was already in the socket. Cheap much? Lol!!! I was dying laughing because I walked to Main Beach where my husband was waiting, all the while carrying a giant black trash bag like an off- season Santa sourcing stuff from the 'hood.
