I used to like coming here but now it is unbelievably hot and also overpriced. Typically garden stores are hot when you're out in the greenhouse, but it is unbearably hot inside the building and they have this massive fan to try to alleviate the heat, but I swear it makes you delusional and almost believed that the prices aren't too high. A lot of the vegetables are left outside to become overgrown or be filled with dried peppers on them instead of someone just picking them off so that the plant could be a little healthier. I used to love to come here but the last few things I've gotten here have died really quickly after I've gotten home. Do better. read more

Very friendly and helpful Will definitely be back. They were very knowledgeable and helpful me make my flowerbeds beautiful.

Excellent selection of plants, tree's & all home gardening needs. Also the prices are reasonable.

I really enjoyed a tour of the blooming flowers with Hlenn as my guide. He and I were seeking flowers for a church arrangement and I'm sure he covered most of the facility until my mind was decided. Thank you, Glenn, and for Mike's Garden Center's variety of options. Beth Fultz, Fort Worth read more

Outstanding service and attention to detail. Some of our plants suffered freeze damage and they came back out quickly and replaced them all with better than the original. Their estimates are always fair and they will work with you on price and timing. Their staff is knowledgeable and helpful. They have earned our business every time we've worked with them. read more

If your in need of plants or anything for your plants this is the place to come. They are very knowledgeable, friendly, and the prices are reasonable, what more could you ask for?! I would go early in the morning so that you don't experience the green house effect when looking at the plants, it gets a little hot. read more

Mike's Garden Centers - Nurseries & Gardening Near Me - Fort Worth, Texas

"Dear Mike's Garden Center, Please stop selling Asclepias curassavica (tropical milkweed, bloodflower, scarlet milkweed, sunset flower, silkweed). They hurt us. Please carry Asclepias incarnata, A. tuberosa, A. syriaca, A. speciosa, and A. asperula instead. It's actually illegal to ship curassavica to Texas. Sincerely, the Monarchs." The Mike's Garden Center manager was brusque and pounded on themes that were not relevant to my request that they consider not selling the milkweed that hurts Monarchs and is deemed by the Texas government to be a noxious weed which cannot be shipped here. We had brought in two Asclepias we'd purchased only to discover they were A. curassavica. Earlier I had at first mistakenly called Weston Gardens in Bloom (8101 Anglin Dr, Fort Worth) where I had purchased an A. tuberosa (and wanted to buy their A. incarnata) to ask if they accepted returns. They graciously said yes if we brought the receipt. I figured Mike's Garden Center might be just as gracious and if not I'd just have to destroy the Monarch-killing plants. I went. I brought my neck fan because it is always a miserable apocalyptic-temperature at Mike's except in January. I saw the "NO RETURNS NO EXCHANGE" sign and said "OK. But I'm really here to talk to the manager." The cashier said they might make an exception under the circumstances and she said she'd get the manager. He showed up loaded for bear. Calmly, I showed him the facts from the federal government's website, and the statistics from the Smithsonian, and "Molecular Ecology." I asked if he'd consider not selling it anymore as politely as if my beloved genteel gramma were watching me. "Irregardless of what's on your little paper people buy it." "It's not my little paper -- it's a government website." "Irregardless, people buy it." "Because tropical milkweed doesn't die back and they are trying to help the Monarchs and they don't know about the harm curassavica does. You didn't even identify it as Tropical Milkweed -- only as Asclepias. This kills Monarchs, and you could sell the good ones instead." But he was loaded for bear and he shot his load. Kept barking at me that I wasn't getting a refund. "That's not why I'm here. I wanted to ask you to consider not selling plants that hurt Monarchs." Kept barking at me that I wasn't getting an exchange. Still calm, still smiling though it didn't reach my eyes: "That's not why I'm here. I wanted to ask you to consider not selling plants that hurt Monarchs." Lather, rinse, repeat repeatedly. I said to Husband "Let's go. No, don't pick them up carefully, we have to destroy them." I grasped one of the two $15 plants and snapped its stems in half, walked out to the parking lot and holding it by the mangled stems bashed it to bits. The root ball got even by bouncing back and slapping my face. I was covered in dirt. I smiled instantly and gleefully, and took a photo of my dirty self in front. Weston Gardens in Bloom (8101 Anglin Dr, Fort Worth) sells the good milkweeds (Asclepias incarnata and A. tuberosa), not the killer milkweed and graciously will give you an exchange if you bring the receipt. On Mother's Day they have tea, live chamber music, and gifts for Mom in their lovely wedding-ready show gardens. read more

A big shout out to Glenn and Emily for their exceptional customer service! They both are very knowledgable and helpful. After coming to Mike's, I don't want to go anywhere else to buy my plants or gardening supplies. read more

If you need a reminder as to why Archie's is first class in terms of presentation, staff and customer service, just check out this place. Yuk! read more

The cashiers are overworked and the other staff are not helpful at all! I purchased over $500 of product and the man was annoyed when I asked for help loading my car! read more

Great selection and all the plants/seedlings looked healthy and fresh. Bought herbs and seeds. I'll definitely be back. read more

I purchased a Japanese Maple Tree with a tag label "Red" Japanese Maple After a year of it remaining green, I called Mike's Garden Nursery to ask why it is still green. I was told to put it in the sun for it to turn red. After another 6 months, it is still green, not the beautiful red I thought I paid for. I contacted Mike's and was told by the Manager that they would not let me exchange it, even though it was labeled "red". He blamed the mislabel on the distributor. We will no longer patronize Mike's because good customers are not valued. I do not recommend this business. They do not guarantee their plants and products. Go to Archie's, Home Depot, Lowes, etc. Definitely not Mike's read more

Great service, excellent inventory, and everyone is so helpful and provide great advice. Highly recommend!

Sometimes I come by just to enjoy the serenity and charm of this place. Outside, they have a couple of huge greenhouses that are filled with wonderful plants. There is also a section with various sized pots and planters in several different colors and designs. They have a large selection of flowers, herbs, shrubs, succulents, and many other plants. Their plants are fairly priced, and oftentimes, I find popular plants here for a fraction of the cost. If you have a garden, you will love it here! Inside they have more delicate pots and other gardening items (humming bird feeders, fertilizer, seeds, etc...). However, my favorite part is the customer service. Whenever I have come, every worker has been very helpful and knows a lot about the plants and items in their section. They have given me tips on everything from how much water each plant needs, to what plants grow well together, and even what plants smell good together. I highly recommend coming here and exploring everything they have to offer! read more

So I came here late fall early winter & was a little put off. But after on nursery failing me in selection I decided to try again. I am so happy I did, they had everything I needed, even what I had already purchased. Their prices were a little more but the plants were also more mature. One weird thing both times I went is that gps has you turn too soon so you have to make a left out of the parking lot to get to their front door. I will for sure be going back in the future. read more

Terrible customer service at the Crowley location!!! Terrible access and parking lot! We went specifically on Wednesday for the Sr Citizen discount day. They would not honor that as the items that we bought were on sale...even though the ad never mentions that. When we asked 3 separate times about specific plants and their location, we were just pointed in a general direction. When loading the multiple plants onto a cart and then when unloading into our truck, we had absolutely no help. I asked the rude cashier if there was anyone to help load our truck with our two large carts full of plants and was told "there's someone out there". Nope! Not a soul! We learned our lesson and will not be back!! read more

Mike's Garden Centers - Proof of discount - Nurseries & Gardening Near Me - Fort Worth, Texas

Called ahead to check availability of crape myrtle. Arrived, asked girl at front of store where to locate and she pointed to a greenhouse area. After wandering around the warehouse size greenhouse, I saw an employee, however I did not speak his language, so back to the front. I asked the same girl again and her response was "they always move things around so I don't know." I suggested she find another employee so she turned to an older man and he tells me " they are out front" (sometimes just pointing is not sufficient on such a large property). I walked out front, seeing another sea of plants, no crape myrtle in sight, got in my car and left, and will not return. I called the manager but he seemed pretty disinterested. I guess the pandemic has not had an economic effect on your business so you can afford to lose customers. read more

Let the buyer beware. Sign on front and on receipt:no exchanges or refunds. Let me explain what is not written, but is even more true. Mike is not responsible for his plants. Unless he plants them (what a scam that is). What is Mike afraid of? An employee told me I could work something out with them. Not so, according to the owner. Mike does not honor his employees promises. OK. I spent $142 dollar for a shade tree in March and it is dead. Mike has no integrity or hono. I offered a REDUCED replacement (As HIS employee said!). He pointed to the sign which absolves him of any common buisness practices. N Sperry says watch out for nurseries that don't honor what they say. Mike encouraged me to share my thoughts here and other media platforms as well as BBB. My suggestion: go somewhere where they don't sell damaged products and with no way to resolve It. This my assessment. You'll find me on Google And elsewhere. Mikes says bring it on! OK! I haven't brought up my age. Charlie may have deceived me, preying on the elderly. I will bring that up with the BBB, too. read more

Pretty decent selection, however a lot of the plants did not look healthy. They have cats, which doesn't bother me but certain areas smelled heavily of cat urine which is very unpleasant. They don't seem to keep it very clean, a lot of dust and spiderwebs. I get that it's a nursery but I have seen cleaner conditions. Some of the staff was helpful, while others didn't seem to know much and the lady at the counter was kind of rude. We found a clay pot that was in their 30% off section, when we went to check out the rude lady tried charging us full price and then when I said we didn't want it, she magically dropped the price. Definitely felt like she was trying to take advantage. Didn't like the vibe, so we won't be back. read more

This place is huge! I spent almost 2 hrs there and still didn't get a chance to explore it all! I noticed how hard working, friendly and knowledgeable the staff seemed to be! They had deals and specials everywhere. I walked out with 4 beautiful fruit and nut trees, loads of shrubs(7), 2 giant bags for potting soil/growers mix and several planters of flowers for $360. I can't wait to go back and spend the afternoon there! This place is just what I need to get my yard where I want it! read more

They sold me two sky pencil holly trees that had begun to yellow and I was told they would perk up once planted. They continued to yellow and ultimately died even after I followed instructions and cared for them carefully. They told me they do not guarantee their plants and no exchanges or refunds. I feel taken advantage of and ripped off. They do not do right by the customer. DO NOT SHOP here! I'm out $300 now which may not be a lot to some people but it was a lot to me. These are not good people. read more

Huge selection, and priced okay. I have been here many times already. Staff are laid back about helping you. and just forget about returning something. read more

I'm not a green thumb by any means. However the manager took time to hear my unusual needs explained and direct me to the prefect selection. His workers delivered and planted my shrub. His worker also removed the remaining old shrub. I highly recommend this local neighborhood nursery. read more

Very laid back about helping you. I called ahead to ask about a certain tree, then I showed up and asked the lady at the front. No one would come out to answer any questions. I even called the front desk to again ask for help. No one came. No one cared, so I left. read more

I've bought from them before and had great service until recently. I had questions about their plants and the warranty on them. When I asked one of the ladies that worked there, an older woman, to help me, she was very rude and it was like she didn't want to be bothered by my questions. I will NEVER shop here again and will not recommend this place to my friends. read more

This place is highway robbery, the cashier building smells so bad and the lady that worked it act as if she hates the world. I was there for desert rose but found that the price was way high. A man approach and said, those are 20% off and Im like no its alright. Walmart has the same bare rooted for 20 bucks same thing all from Thailand base in the tag. Anyways, I found some really cool dealers from Thai. Good luck selling all those bare rooted grafted for that price. First time and last time for me at this place. read more

There is quite a bit of single-review orangehead activity here, which certainly makes me suspicious. However, I will gladly offer my $.02. I've been to Mike's for a number of things over the past couple years. They take care to always have organic gardening products, but they do "sell out" and carry the high chemical products as well. They do have a business to run, after all. I think their value is pretty good, even though you might be able to find lower prices on actual plants at the big box retailers. Mike's is worth the trip to get advice from the gardeners on staff, and they will go out of their way to make suggestions to help you. I definitely plan to return to Mike's to start my tomato garden up in the spring, and I will likely be back before then for my fall lawn/gardening needs. Look for an update at that time. BTW - The parking lot gets pretty crowded on Saturdays, particularly during the spring. It seems some folks find good value here. read more

I have shopped at Mikes since the first one on Crowley Road went out of business and then came back. But Sunday 5/15/2017 I went in with my 30% coupon for Crape Myrtles. The asian woman that I found to ask question, I could tell didn't really want to be there, I asked she said across the street, I searched, could not find what I was looking for, went back found her in back of the store. Asked if she would show me where they are, she said I can not leave the store, so I started to, and then she dragged herself to the front of the store and finally pointed. I went found what I wanted and came it to check out. I asked the price, as I didn't see it. Young man from out side, showed me. I gave my coupon to the woman and she said that would be $68 and I said, what about the 30% discount. I said that would $20, she said she was sorry but she didn't know how to use the cash register to get me the discount. I took my card back and went somewhere else. Mike will never see this, but if I were him and saw it it would kill me. My advice to Mike's is to make sure you have people that enjoy working on weekends with positive attitudes and perhaps some retraining to make sure your employees know how to give clients the Discounts that you Spend $1000's of dollars advertising to get us in your store. Sincerely, Chris " Gotcha" Wilson read more

Mike knows his stuff and is VERY friendly. I showed him pictures of brown spots that were on my lawn and within seconds he knew exactly what my problem was and how to fix it. The prices are a few percentage points higher than the box stores, but his service is worth it. This is the place to go for all your gardening needs. read more

Came by in November looking for houseplants. BIG MISTAKE. First, their entrance is extremely obscure if you have never been and are using google maps to get in. Second, it is in a rough part of town where I was fearful for my safety. Third, they were selling rouuuugh (read: dead) plants. Fourth, they had a nut shucking device going that was grinding so loud, I wish I had ear covers to protect my eardrums! Fifth, their pots are sooooo dusty. Sixth, across from the pots was a paper plate with remnants of someone's meal and a plastic fork--gross! How long had that been there? Seventh, the employee at the register was talking loudly to presumably another employee about his tardiness very angrily--so she did not notice I was wanting to purchase a pot. I gave up on this nightmare of a business. I did not expect this from the google reviews. Maybe this place is better in the summer. Today was not a good look for this location. It is night and day compared to the other location up North. I would not bring anyone I cared for to this place nor will I ever return. Not sure how they stay in business like this. read more

I've been in several times. A lot of selections but the problem for me, each time, is that maybe half the plants, bushes etc are not labeled as to what they are and are not marked with a price. I went in 3-16-15 and couldn't find what I was looking for and saw many items w/o lables/prices yet again. I saw no available employees to ask for help and I walked by the register coming in/out. No one there. I ended up going to the competition in Benbrook and was promptly greeted by an employee who took care of me. I'm not wasting my time anymore here. read more

We bought over 400$ in plants and half of them died and then do not accept any guarantee . Half lived, I'd rather purchase from lowes next time read more

They have some nice stuff, but I will NEVER buy trees or more pricey things from them again. The Kiefer pear I purchased broke out in a horrible case of fire blight within 2 weeks of planting it. They basically said, 'too bad for you'. I can now see where earlier fireblight was likely trimmed away so the tree would look ok. Sneaky and disappointing. They have some great staff members, but for quality trees, I will stick to Redenta's and Calloway's from now on. read more

The lady behind register was so rude. There was no one to help us find what we specifically came for even though they confirmed it was in stock when we called prior to driving out. There were no other employees on site to help point us in the right direction. We left and paid $5 MORE per gallon per plant. read more

Their pansies put Lowe's to SHAME. There's so many it smells like roses in that room. I bought two flats and went back to buy a 3rd. Yes, I do have that many flower pots and yes I will get up and water them every day. I ain't no wussy container gardener. might i add Mike's pansies are 86 cents each for a 4 inch pot and Lowe's are 1.24 for sad plants. read more

Best place to buy Christmas trees! Beautiful full Fraser Firs from Oregon and North Carolina. They have some great 12 footers that blew me away. Bought my 9 foot tree for $126. It's nicer than anything you would find at the Hardware stores. I've never done any other shopping here so can't say it's great for everything. read more

Landscape division just reworked our flower beds. Excellent job - friendly workers, reasonable price, looks great. Mike, Jr. took a personal interest in the project and made sure it was done correctly. Supervisor, Shannon, was wonderful - went above and beyond... read more

Great place for answers to any questions you may have..been in the neighborhood for years and glad to see that it is still going strong...great selection of everything you might need... read more

Do not go to this place unless you want to give your money away. We spent over $400 in plants. 2 weeks later 3 plants died and they were $35 a piece, they were watered like all the rest. We took them back to exchange for live plants but were told we killed them and they do not do exchanges or refunds. 2 weeks and lost money!!! That will be the last time for us read more

I like the selection here, but the few times I've called to ask questions it's been hard to get answers and most recently I overbought as I was planting my beds for the season and had 3 extra plants to return (within 48 hours and in perfect condition). I did not notice that they state no refunds or exchanges on the receipt. Sometimes you just need to get home and lay out the pots and see what fits, and not being able to return an item is just inconvenient and silly. I'll continue to buy at Calloway's after this experience just due to their friendly return policy. They are pricier, but it's worth it to me. read more
