Working at Lambert's Nursery has deepened my appreciation for how plants and people both thrive when they're given the right environment. Every day I have the opportunity to assist customers beyond simply choosing plants--I enjoy listening to their goals, sharing practical gardening knowledge, and helping them feel confident in creating healthy, beautiful outdoor spaces. I've experienced a workplace where teamwork, honesty, respect, and continual learning are valued. Gardening has reminded me that growth takes patience, consistency, and care, and I try to bring those same qualities into every interaction with customers. Whether someone is an experienced gardener or buying their very first plant, I want each person to leave feeling welcomed, encouraged, and inspired. It's rewarding to be part of a nursery that allows me to share my passion for plants and the positive impact they have on our lives. read more

Listen, they probably got two stars because you're dealing with a bunch of old men who are working in the heat you also aren't there to shoot the breeze. Just picture yourself at a commercial nursery where customer service is not important that you want to buy or not. That being said; they do not care and if you're going to have to accept this is a no nonsense kind of place. There is nothing wrong with how they run their business and you just gotta take it like it is. They are expressly knowledgeable and are cheaper than southern horticulture. Mr Lambert has an extensive collection of plants that will not be found at a big box store. I buy my plants that are suited for our area there like Dune Daisies. This flower cannot be found anywhere else in Saint Augustine. His prices are not cheap but he only keeps what sells quickly and they are cared for. I hired them to come and plant a fig, avocado and olive tree. It was $100 per tree. I tried to negotiate but he pays his aging staff $25 a hour. No kids here working. That is far. It's hard work. This is a local business that pays fair wages so support this business. read more

Lamberts Nursery - Close at 330 on Fridays - Nurseries & Gardening Near Me - St. Augustine, Florida

See all

This is a really solid small business owned by the Lambert family. It is probably best suited for people who have some ideas about what they want and don't need a lot of handholding and book quoting about growing seasons and climatic range. They will deliver pine chips or bark quickly at a good price And have a lot of healthy stock. They don't always have the same things because they only buy things that are healthy and they turn over very quickly. read more

I'm shocked to see anything but high reviews for this nursery. I love to garden and love the tropical plants and variety at Lambert's. John the manager is very knowledgeable and helpful and I've purchased hundreds of dollars worth of plants and palms. The prices are the best I've seen! Recently I had this company install a palm tree at my house... they couldn't have impressed me more! I highly recommend this business. read more

Average nursery with decent service. I have ordered from them several times over the last year's and never a bad experience dealing with nearly all their employees at least one time or another. Contrary to other reviews posted here, the delivery guys are hard workers and have always been happy to deliver to my specifications (they don't install if you only order a delivery) and to drop deliveries in certain places (such as backyards) specialty equipment is necessary which they might not have. The owner is a caring local, and their service provides much needed enhanced aesthetics to the st augustine area! read more

Called to get a price on a plant. Ask the price range the reply was they range in all different prices, come in and take a look. Then he hung up on me. Very rude. read more

I've been meaning to check this place out for a long time and finally the opportunity presented itself. My husband and I are looking for shrubbery, flowers and succulents that we don't already have for our 1 1/2 acre yard and were excited to take a leisurely stroll through the nursery and map out a rough landscaping plan our heads. With that much land we have a lot of planting options, which means more plants to buy than the average home. It also takes time to make thoughtful decisions, especially for something you're going to be living with for a very long time. We planned on combing the place, then buy what we liked. Pretty sure most people do the same. My husband and I were the only customers and after about 5 minutes of looking an employee came to ask if we needed help. My husband asked what an unmarked plant cost and the man quoted a price. I thanked him and told him we were still looking around, at which point he abruptly turned away from us and started to walk away in irritation. My husband is a people person and attempted to explain that we live close by and wanted to see what he had in stock, since we drive by it all the time. The employee said, "Yeah," as my husband was speaking and left entirely, leaving us standing there like idiots. We should've left but continued to look around. We saw many things we wanted to buy, but at that point we felt foolish and like we were an annoyance because we didn't instantly know what we wanted. We also didn't commit to buying the plant we asked about (most of their prices are fair, but this particular plant was a little too much), which visibly ticked him off. I don't expect a business to roll out the red carpet for me, but a little courtesy and friendliness goes a very long way. When you're talking to someone and they turn their back on you and walk away, cutting you off with an abrupt, 'yeah', why in the world would you want to give them your business? It was made very clear that if we weren't there to buy something immediately, then we weren't worth his time. If he'd been just a little decent, he would've had a pretty generous sale from us right then, and many more purchases in the future. What a disappointment. We were so excited to check out a place we haven't been to before, and it was so convenient to our house that we were hoping to make it our "go-to" place for all our landscaping needs. We won't be back. read more

Spent over $600 for landscaping trees and bushes here. They all started dying 2 months later. Called and talked to Johnny to see if there was a warranty. He told my husband it was our fault for them dying, and Johnny hung up on him. I called right back and asked for the owners contact information. He screamed at me that the owner isn't available. I then said I wanted the owner to call us back, and tried to give my name and number. He screamed over me 5 times that my info was on his caller ID. I said over and over that wasn't my callback number. He screamed SHUT UP to me, hung up on me, then refused to answer the phone. I went there and again asked for the owner's information. He refused to provide it, and didn't have anything nasty to say with my husband standing behind me (it's a shame it has to come to that for a woman these days). We will be filing a small claims lawsuit to resolve this. Maybe the owner will call us then. DO NOT EVER GO HERE FOR EVEN A SINGLE BLADE OF GRASS!!!!! read more
