Yup yup yup!! This is an excellent nursery. I'll make this short. Prices are fantastic. Selection is fantastic. Service is fantastic. and its soooo pretty! A quick update: Someone said they are pricey. I buy plants from everywhere, this nursery has truly fantastic prices. Example: I just purchased 2 mini dwarf apples trees from a nursery not too far away, they were $94 each. Mcaulliffes has espaliered (very expensive way to grow trees) pears for $64 each! Espaliered! Blows my mind. That is the deal of the century. read more

My daughter and I visited mcauliffes today looking for a pink hydrangea bush. I've always loved McAuliffe's because you can tell it's run by someone who truly loves what they do. It feels like it is someone's personal garden that is shared with visitors. Sometimes it can be a little challenging to find things, but it is usually a fun hunt. After spending 20 min searching we finally found a row of lime colored hydrangea and one pink one. My daughter happily picked it up and loaded it in the cart as it was the one thing we came to find and she was so proud she was the one who spotted it. It takes a lot to get my teenaged daughter to spend time with me, but today I was able to bribe her with a stop to Snohomish pie co as this was a belated birthday gift to me and we also needed dessert. We wondered down towards the trees on our way to check out when an employee an up to us asking if we found the pink one standing with other hydrangeas. We confirmed yes and she said it was intended for someone else. I asked to take a pic of the tag and she then picked it up and took it away. We were incredibly shocked and disappointed. Although we had a few other things on our cart after chatting with another team member we chose to not purchase. That interaction ruined our fun mom daughter date. As I was leaving I happened to to see the employee and after sending my daughter to the car with our pup I approached to just share with "Mikayla" how disappointed and upset we were both leaving. I wanted to express that it wasn't just a purchase today, but us spending some of our last years/months together before she is too busy for me with her own life. Mikayla was not empathetic an all and acted very matter of fact in that she had no control over it. The fact is it wasn't sold, wasn't tagged, not on a cart and no one was near them. I asked her name and she was away sharing over her shoulder while rolling her eyes "have a nice day". I was already on the verge of tears and although my intention was not to be mad and just express how it had really dampened our day I felt completely disregarded and chose to seek out a manager. After approaching another team member he let me know he'd grab someone to speak with me. "Mikayla" approached and offered to see when they'd get more in and I shared I could easily look online myself or go to flower world. I was able to talk with Anne who seemed to understand what I was trying to convey. I just needed someone to listen to my perspective five. She also offered that they could keep an eye out, but because I was crying I shared it wouldn't change what happened. It's just a plant at a store, but it wasn't just that for us and someone walking around with a radio disregarding anyone but her list of things she needed to do really broke our hearts. Lesson learned, not all of mccaulifes employee exude the same helpfulness and care as the others. read more

What a beautiful nursery! My parents love coming to visit or shop for their own garden here. Got to meet the owners and they really are such a lovely couple! The types of plants they have, the variety, and how they have it organized or arranged on their property, with various zen places and artwork, and music is inviting and peaceful. read more

Was pleased to visit this meticulously maintained, beautiful nursery in the Snohomish valley. It was our first visit and our intent was to price out a recent quote on some landscape work. - Joe and Jamie both proactively stopped to help us and shared their expertise. They each walked us around the grounds and we appreciated their proactive insight and suggestions. - clean and well maintained, people were leaving with truck loads of purchases! - refreshing to see their prices are more than reasonable! - we didn't make any purchases this time but I understand they deliver and that's exactly what we need for the tress we're looking to purchase. We will be back to make final selections! - the home section is small, nothing like Molbaks or Sky. outdoor and useful home items, less gifty. read more

They are not nice. I almost didn't want to get my stuff from them but they were the only nursery to have it. They were very rude , no hi or how are you. I paid and said thank you and got nothing in return. They don't want your business so bring it else where!! read more

The staff is knowledgeable and helpful. They went above and beyond to help us find the tree of our dreams. The grounds are gorgeous with many unique building names that house different kinds of plants. Walking around the grounds is a fun adventure. read more

Best nursery around! Great selection, knowledgeable and friendly staff! I highly recommend!

Not only I got my steps but I had a relaxing afternoon after walking through the pathways of beautiful plants and trees here in this garden. It has so much to offer. I'm sharing some of them with you. Staff is very helpful and full of knowledge about their plants and trees. Prices? Great in comparison to other gardens I've been to. I am somewhere in the Snohomish area which is a nice little trip from Lynnwood. They deliver too! I highly recommend this place. It is endearing. You must see if you're in the area especially. There's nothing like touching and smelling flowers and grasses and, so on. I enjoyed it! read more

The plant displays are very neat and pretty, definitely a step up from a warehouse-type experience. Folks seemed very nice and greeted me proactively. Didn't buy any plants but I did get a bunch of lovely handmade Christmas ornaments that I thought were reasonably priced. read more

Very beautiful nursery with lots of beautiful plants. Staff were friendly and helpful. I wish we had a nursery like this nearby. Prices seemed a bit higher than I expected. It's still a great nursery to shop. read more

Based on a friends recommendation we drove from Seattle and from the moment we landed In Snohomish Valley we knew our adventure was worth it. Little did we know that once we reached our destination the adventure would get even better. McAuliffe's Valley Nursery is worth every mile it took to get there. The staff was professional,welcoming , knowledgeable and kind. The whole facility is clean and well kept. Plants are arranged in almost a garden like atmosphere making shopping along the paths quite relaxing The plants are well cared for and vast in varieties. Trees, shrubs and all flowering plants plants are displayed gracefully. I highly recommend McAuliffe's Valley Nursery. read more

Beautiful nursery. Very inspiring for gardeners. You can tell they take exceptional care with their plants - everything is neat as a pin and appealingly arranged. Don't miss the zen garden and the flea market shack. read more

This is the best nursery I have been too! If you can't find what you are looking for here, I don't know where you'll find it. The selection is excellent, the staff was very helpful as well. Besides plants, shrubs, trees, etc., there are some cute little shops to browse around in. I could spend hours just looking around at the beauty of the whole nursery. read more

Lovely in every way -- amazing variety of everything imaginable to choose from, fair prices, and everyone is helpful and happy to be there. I'll be going to hang out there even when I don't need to buy anything! read more

if there were zero, stars, I would give them zero. Don't buy there. I saved up money so I can buy my mom a flowering dogwood tree for Mother's Day. I picked one out that looked really nice and it was in a big black pot and we paid for it and these two guys that work there took it out of the pot and started chopping at the roots. I gave it to my mom and she was very happy and now the tree is dead even though we watered it and gave it a good dirt. She is sad about it and so am I so don't buy there they killed my mom's Mother's Day present. read more

Love my Flowers and enjoyed walking the grounds. They have many beautiful choices and lots of good suggestions!

I've been a customer for years, and the quality, selection and value never disappoints. A situation came up this year that caused me to request a replacement. Brad went above and beyond to make it right. I appreciate the outstanding customer service! read more

Great selection, great team, worth the drive. Would go out of our way (already do) to shop here.

What a beautiful nursery in the farming area of Snohomish. It is so pretty that they should charge admission just to walk around. A great day to just walk around and admire the beautiful, and bountiful, trees, shrubs, and various plants. The employees are helpful and knowledgeable. Hubby and I went to find some plants for our front yard but found out it was already at the end of the season for what we were looking for. Will have to wait till next year for those. But that is okay, we enjoyed walking and see which plants to add to our garden. Will have a better plan next year...early spring. If you want to spend some time admiring plants and a place to bring the kids, come and see Thai nursery. read more

Very helpful and friendly staff, beautiful environment, and affordable plants! Lots of affordable planters too which is rare in my experience. read more

I was just at McAuliffe's and I LOVE going there so much! The owners and staff are always so friendly and helpful. I usually never know what I'm going for, but always leave with a trunkful of goodies to adorn my home and business with. I always get compliments on my purchases. I especially like going here over any other place that sells plants because of the peaceful atmosphere and culture the owners have set. It's more important to me now than ever to feel at peace. They had all of the precautions for COVID-19 available which made me feel even more safe. Some folks need to see the good around them and give grace when things don't go "their" way. Running a business is not easy, especially these days. read more

Beautiful selection! Wow. Also they do allow dogs here. Very happy that I found this place!

Beautiful nursery... poor business practices. I purchased two substantial trees here late Saturday afternoon. The trees together cost over $600. I got the trees home and figured out they were not the right size/shape for the space. Called Sunday morning to confirm their return policy was told that they could be returned with a 20% restocking fee. Wednesday morning I made the long trip back over to the nursery and was told I could only return the $159 tree with the 20% restocking fee. They said the other tree was damaged and would have to go in the burn pile. The tree had a small scar on the trunk from being moved. It was a healthy tree. It had not been neglected, it was watered, it had not been unwrapped and the root ball was in perfect shape. The only option was to take the tree back home or to leave it there and have them burn it. For the two trees I spent over $600 - I got $131 for the return. Poor business practices - with poor communication of their return policy. I will post a picture of the tree that they said was going to the burn pile. read more

This is THE TO Go to Nursery. What sets it apart fr other plant nurseries is the customer service! You can certainly call ahead, especially during the Coronavirus crisis, if you want something specific. The staff is very experienced, will let you know what condition best suits the plant. Also will let you know if the plant will come in. In February I was looking for a osmanthus which they didn't have but the young man, Alex? told me that they would come in mid March in 1 or 2gallon sizes. Sure enough I got a beauty. Also picked up some healthy bareroot roses . My husband and I went again today to look for rhodies, the place was very very busy but staff wore mask and maintained SD, thanked us for our patience. We'll be back! read more

TL;DR excellent and healthy selection of edible (fruits, vegetables, herbs) and non-edible plants. Super helpful and knowledgeable staff. Definitely will be back. read more

Be aware that there is a 20% restocking fee if you buy a tree. We bought a tree here and they told us they would take it out of the pot for us and into a bag. They did not however tell us there was going to be a fat 20% restocking fee. No where on the receipt does it say that either. At the very least, customers should be told there's going to be this charge before buying a tree. I understand the purpose of a restocking fee, but it was literally a day after we bought it. Most nurseries don't even charge restocking fees. We accidentally bought the wrong tree and brought it back only one day and wanted to exchange it for the correct tree they had. When we told them we bought the wrong tree one of the workers told us the two trees don't even look alike (yes the one we wanted is taller, but they're both japanese maple trees with the exact same leaves). The other workers though are nice. The place overall is pretty, but it's just an unfortunate experience of their refund policy that will make me not come back and go to other nurseries that are much more lenient and understanding. read more

My new "Happiest Place on Earth!" Great staff, great information and great plants that perform well at home! I recommend McAuliffe's to anyone looking for a quality nursery. Just walking through their beautiful grounds is a quick stress reducer! Warren H. read more

Went for one hardy fuchsia, drove away with a truck load. Very well designed and an excellent example of what a great nursery can be. Displays galore! Super selection of small, medium and large size native and nonnative plants accompanied by awesome service. They even play relaxing music throughout. A little out of the way and well worth the journey to Snohomish. Now back at home the work begins, digging holes for the new trees in hard-packed clay and "Marysville spuds" thanks to glacial till. I found my landscape source in Snohomish WA. read more

Good selection, quality plants. A little on the expensive side, but good to buy local

Love this local family owned & operated nursery. Everyone is so helpful and their knowledge of the plants is tremendous. They grow everything on site, so I never have to worry about shocking the plants When I plant them in my yard. A++++ Thank you Tiffini & Jamie for running such a great Nursery! Updating my initial review of McAuliffe's Nursery - 2 years later. Our yard is flourishing with all of the plants we have bought at McAuliffe's Nursery. In fact there are very few plants left from the previous owner of our house as many died or replacements from places like Flower World and other local nursery's never lasted more than a few months before withering to dead plants. As I originally reviewed - McAuliffe's is the only place I shop for plants now. I've learned my lessons and now I feel confident that Jamie and Tiffini are the best resource any home owner can have when seeking professional, friendly and supportive support in building and growing a wonderful garden or planning a landscaping project that will look amazing! If we were talking hotels - McAuliffe's would be a five diamond resort. The value of their plants is in the long term reward of a beautiful landscape. read more

Came here on the hunt for a veriegated azara. Truthfully, I wasn't sure what that was, but my friend was a man on a mission, and we stopped in here to see if they had his treasure. This nursery is pretty darn cool. Someone put a lot of thought into the landscaping and layout of the grounds. It gives you a lot of ideas for your own yard. It's very peaceful to just wander around the grounds and enjoy all the happy little trees. Speaking of the trees! Holy wow, there are bunches. Tall trees, short trees, leafy trees, evergreens and more maples than you could shake a stick at. Not that shaking a stick at a tree would accomplish much... in any case, it's gorgeous. Staff was here and there. It was a busy Saturday morning, so they were often assisting others, but stopped in on us a few times to offer assistance, or to, perhaps make sure that we did not get lost in the back lot (they left the gate open and we wandered back there,). They were great assistance in helping us locate an azara (which is a tree for those not in the know) and, though it wasn't of the variegated persuasion, it was still so pretty that my friend scooped it up and took it home. The thing I like best is that this nursery is pretty and functional, with great selection and really knowledgeable staff (shout out to Maria, she really knows her stuff), BUT it's not all hoity-toity like some nurseries have gotten. I felt comfortable there in my jeans and beat-up sneaks, not something I can say about other nurseries that I've visited recently. read more

Horrible customer service. Called ahead of time to make sure they had camellias in stock. Got there. Looked around for 45 minutes trying to find them. Asked for help finding them twice. Saw other customers with them who said they had staff bring them out from the back. Asked customer service again if they could do that for us. They said no. We left. read more

I have been to many nurseries lately. The thing that sets this place apart from the rest is the service. There is always someone there to help answer your questions or help you find what you are looking for. They also have a great selection and beautiful grounds. I just love going. I also find that it is cheaper and has better quality plants than other nurseries. read more

McAuliffe's is SO NICE! It is super relaxing just to come here - everything is so clean and the people working there are super nice. I bought some bare root fruit trees last year (Apples and Cherries). Got in, got out - super easy. They post new stuff on their website, so keep an eye out. read more

I came here for the first time yesterday for some hanging baskets and it was AMAZING! I have driven by this place countless times going to (the also amazing) Dayville farm store and Bailey's Vegetables but have never stopped in here. I was blown away at the cleanliness and quality of the plants and flowers here and the super unique varieties here that i haven't seen before! I got two hanging baskets, one really cool "hybrid begonia" and one HUGE basket and both at super competitive prices! The grounds here are really well laid out and cute with the different areas labeled. And the customer service! Oh, the customer service! It was amazing! The employees were friendly and happy to help people! An employee noticed i was a little lost and actually acknowledged me and pointed me in the right direction without me even asking. At check out, I watched as a man asked an employee for help. When he told her he was deaf, she SO politely took a step back to maintain distance and pulled her mask down so that he could read her lips while she helped him, then proceeded to take him around the nursery to find what he needed... be still my heart! The employees here are just a wonderful example of how we should all treat each other! ( and all this despite the fact that it was thirty minutes to closing time! She never said anything or came across as in a hurry.) I am so glad to have found this place! And who knew, nestled in-between two of my already favorite businesses, Dayville and Bailey's! You could make a whole lovely afternoon here on springhetti road with these three! I can not wait to come back here when I have more time to look around! read more
