Always a delight! Even in winter I love their garden store…read more Topiaries and more at good prices awesome choices for me and gifting and had a hard time deciding what NOT To purchase in their Christmas store. Everything is lovely and not what you find everywhere else Children's gift items too The gals that helped me were all friendly and helpful will return again and again

Gorgeous to look at, complicated to grow If you are looking…read morefor the prettiest nursery in Utah County, the search ends here. Sun River Gardens is beautifully organized, thoughtfully displayed, and stocked with a selection that puts most nurseries in the area to shame. Walking through it feels less like a garden center errand and more like an experience worth making time for. The indoor plant section is well curated and extensive. The outdoor area covers annuals, perennials, trees, and shrubs. The pottery selection, both indoor and outdoor, is lovely and priced accordingly. The pre-potted arrangements are hard to walk past. And then there is the home decor section, which is genuinely my favorite part of the visit. Exclusive, elegant, and full of pieces you simply will not find anywhere else, from beautiful accents and furniture to the most charming toys you can imagine. None of it is cheap, but none of it looks like anything else either. Now for the part I have been trying to figure out for years. I have a green thumb. I have a home full of healthy thriving plants. But something consistently happens with the plants I bring home from Sun River Gardens. Within a week or two, despite careful attention and following care instructions, they decline and die. This has happened enough times to be a pattern rather than a coincidence. Interestingly I have noticed the same thing with plants from other high end nurseries, while plants from Harmons or even Walmart almost always thrive. My best guess is that greenhouse grown plants raised in highly controlled environments struggle more with the transition to home conditions, but I genuinely do not know. What I do know is that it keeps happening. And yet I keep coming back, because the selection and the experience are that good. Four stars for the atmosphere, the inventory, and that home decor section. Just go in with realistic expectations if you are buying plants to keep alive.

Olson's Garden Shoppe is one of the best greenhouses I've been to around Utah…read more This is the retail location for garden and gardening supplies. If you need something I'm sure they will have it here. Plants, seeds, fertilizers, soil and little things like pots are available year round. The west side of the building is pretty much dedicated to house plants. Small to large, there is almost always a plant that you are looking for available. I've even bought plants in the middle of winter! During the spring you can grab almost any plant for your garden. They have so many varieties of tomatoes and peppers in multi packs you could buy your garden on one trip. You can buy bare roots for planting as well as seeds if you want to start from ground zero (pun intended.) Check their website to see what the monthly specials are. You can get great discounts at the end of the season on plants as well. Parking is abundant and this place covers a large area. Bigger items like trees and shrubs are outside the actual greenhouse so if you are going to buy items that are larger, you should park around the side by the east gate. It's separated by plant type outside so you can easily navigate to find what you need. Even if you aren't looking to buy something quite yet, just take a walk around the place and see what they have to offer. The staff is so nice and if you have a question (no matter how difficult) there is someone there to help you out. Brad is the man when it comes to plants. He knows the little tricks and tips to growing what you need. They also feature classes to help you become a better gardener and plant person! Bottom line is, come here! It's very likely they will have anything you need related to your plant needs.

Recently I was asked to teach a gardening class for The Church of Jesus Christ of LatterDay Saints on a Stake level. I went to Olsen's Garden Shoppe in Payson, Utah to get a schedule of their up coming classes they teach to refer my class members to. When Chris Olsen (One of the owners) found out why I had come in, not only did she get me the upcoming class flyers, she went beyond being helpful giving me ideas for teaching. I was astounded at her kindness & generous support of our community. I've frequented their Nursery / Garden Center for my own yard as well as friends & neighbors, but was shocked at her support. Their employee's are always knowledgeable & helpful too!

Really this nursery deserves 4.5 stars. Best selection in Utah County. If you have a new yard with…read morenothing on it, this is your nursery. They give discounts to customers that buy plants in bulk. Also they have a fair return policy. If they plant dies within a year, you can bring in your dead plant and receipt and get 50% of the money you spent on that plant towards a new one. They have some of the most knowledgeable personnel in Utah County. If someone doesn't know the answer to your question, they will look it up or find someone that does know the answer. The prices are very comparable to all of the other nurseries. The store is great and they have acres of selection. Sometimes it's a little hard to find the plant you want because they have such a huge selection. They have done a good job trying to fix that by laying it out in a shopper-friendly way. Each year they get better at this. Why not five stars? 1) The gravel is not stroller friendly 2) It can be difficult to find someone to help you on Friday nights and Saturdays. If you want help go on weekdays before school gets out. 3) They go through a lot of plants so they run out sometimes and you have to wait for a new shipment to show up.

I wanted to get some flowers for my house, but didn't want to use a big box store during the…read morepandemic. They have all types of flowers, bushes, trees and plants. You can also find decor and yard supplies. It's well organized and easy to maintain social distancing while shopping.

This place was super cute and aesthetic. As a first time planter, I decided to come here to get my…read moreplants. I had previously called and asked which plants would be the most suitable for beginners. (They are very responsive on the phone, which is great!) They told me that there will be people who could help me out at the store. Yet, when I arrived nobody greeted or helped out. When I asked for tips from two workers, they said they were not sure. So, I had to walk around to ask different workers. I was quite disappointed with the help and knowledge of the workers. As I was mainly looking at house plants, I must say that I was quite disappointed with some of the plants that I was previously eyeing. There were leaves that were broken off and wilting. Yet, I also managed to find other plants that looked so pretty! I love the selection of the pots and think that they are a good price in comparison to other online stores. I loved how they also helped me repot my plants for free as I purchased the pot AND the plant from the store (their requirement for free potting).

This plant nursery has very pretty scenery like sun river garden, lots of plants to pick from. But…read morethat being said it looks like they don't maintain their plants because I saw a lot of dead trees, sick plants and plants of dire need of dead heading. when I did find pretty plants they didn't have a price on it. Some plants did and a lot did not. There were no workers to be found. It was like a ghost town. when I did find the price of the plants they over charged. I go to plant nurseries all over Utah and can find the same plants for half the cost and way more healthy. Shades used to be way better maintained but every time I've stopped by it seems like are becoming less and less maintained. I use to brag about this place but after today I just won't be back until they start to be organized, maintain their plants and have more affordable pricing. They are pricing out their customers.
