Roses organized in rows by variety and color
Adanari Z.

Absolutely stunning! I was looking to buy some rose bushes for my home and went to the next door app to see what folks recommended in the area. Almost unanimously, Otto & Sons was the top suggestion. I gotta say, a more perfect location could not exist! Absolutely stunning rose varieties for purchase and for viewing as you're strolling by their gardens. I could have spent hours looking around. We ended up purchasing 8 different roses. An employee was so kind to show us around their garden areas. It's an open space for visitors to go and check out and even have picnic tables for visitors to enjoy the views. They have a beautiful and tranquil koi pond surrounded by beautiful vegetation and fruit trees. I even got to take a few stone fruit for myself. It's beautiful and I cannot wait to go back to enjoy the scenery. Organized, scenic, and great quality options of plants available.

Rows and rows

This nursery is so lovely, it is well worth the drive from LA. It has dozens of more varieties and colors of roses than any run of the mill hardware store or even the very nice nurseries in LA. It has rows and rows of every color of roses and beautiful gardens to walk through you will feel like you are in a wonderland. While it is far from LA I really enjoy the drive it is rolling hills once you get off the fwy. Very relaxing. Treat yourself to a lovely experience and come on out here, the staff is extremely helpful and happy as well.

Crimson beauties.

As a Ventura County resident for over 30 years I can't believe I didn't know what an amazing place Otto & Sons Nursery is - a complete gem! Dear Hubby, Sweet Granddaughter, and I went on adventure yesterday on a glorious fall day. We were on the Ventura County Farm Day self-guided tour. With a 3 year old, we didn't get in a lot of venues, but I'm so grateful that this was our first stop. Set in the serene Heritage Valley outside Fillmore, the nursery enjoys a gorgeous backdrop just made for photos. A wholesale nursery offering a garden shop and acres of roses and all manner of other plants, there's so much so see. The public is welcome to visit and shop direct at their facility. I'll share an exciting secret - they have a gorgeous garden section complete with splashing fountains, a koi pond, landscaped pathways, a gazebo, picnic area, and beautiful flower beds. If you plan ahead you can bring a picnic and soak up some relaxation time in this lovely setting. I didn't want to leave! For Farm Day they also had some volunteers helping out with crafts, demonstrations about butterflies and bugs, hay rides, guided tours, and more. DH and I will definitely return, and if SG hears about it, she'll want to go, too!

My favorite place near LA! I could have spent 3 days there just smelling all the David Austin's roses! If you are obsessed with roses there is no better place than here!

Incredible assortment of roses to choose from!
Elisa H.

Yes,it's worth the ride! This nursery has the largest and most varied selection of roses in the area. Hybrids with amazing scents, ground roses, climbers, tree roses, you name it. My personal favorites are double delights and Mr Lincoln, both which we now have growing in our garden. Speaking of gardens, the blueberry bushes here are fabulous, too. They're varied and each one has a different flavor, size and growing requirements. We love them and, I'll tell you a little secret, so does our dog. The staff here will help you decide which variety is best suited to your growing conditions. I'm grateful this nursery exists, I'll be back....however, I now need another yard!

Oh My! red grandiflora roses

We found this nursery through the Edible magazine of Ventura & Ojai counties. I am so glad we came! You will definitely need GPS to find this place as it's on a long winding road. There is plenty of parking and more than enough roses for everyone! The roses are organized A-Z as well as by type, such as Floribunda, Hybrid Tea, English, Grandiflora, miniature, tree, climbers and shrub. They sell all sorts of breeders including David Austin, Weeks, Jackson & Perkins, Sunbelt, Kordes and others. They even have a section for sale roses! They will have a larger selection of roses in the spring. All the roses looked well taken care of. There are a few other plants but mainly this is a rose and fruit tree nursery. Their website is always updated, so definitely check it out for catalogs and information. Otto's offers a "Rose University" training and demonstration held on Saturday mornings - something we plan on attending in the future! We purchased 6 roses on our first visit, and are already planning on which roses to get next!

This is rose Heaven!!!! Get married here, create your dream garden full of the best roses in the world make a day of it. Go to lunch in down town Santa Paula after you stiff your car full of the most fragrant flora. The staff will help you pack your car full, but don't forget to tip your stuffer. It's hot out here for a primrose! Get some gift shop goodies while your at it. Choose from the best of tea towels, honey and cement frogs. Drift away in the beauty of this place

We were absolutely delighted with our experience at Norman's Nursery!…read more Our landscapers recommended that we visit Norman's, and we're so grateful that we did. Upon arrival, we were greeted warmly by Evelyn. She is extremely knowledgeable and professional, and was a pleasure to work with! With her guidance, we selected eight trees. Brandon and the team at Norman's that handled the installation was highly professional and did an excellent job. The trees looked so beautiful that we decided to add more! One of the things we truly appreciate is Norman's planting guarantee--if any of the trees don't thrive, they will replace them. When investing in quality trees, it's reassuring to have a vendor that stands behind its products. We're excited to continue expanding our growing grove and will definitely be back for more!

We had never been to a nursery before so we were at ease when we got a friendly greeting from Daniel. He asked us some pertinent questions that would help him narrow down the right plants and trees and off we went to look! He was a wealth of knowledge. We were so impressed that we selected a beautiful tree and hedges. I also had a picture of a bush I wanted. He looked it up and found it on their other yard so we added 2 to our order. They were delivered within a few days. Unfortunately, they didn't bring the items we tagged but Daniel got it sorted out right away and they were delivered the very next morning. It was really no big deal, as they corrected the error immediately and Daniel communicated with us with updates. Good quality plants at a reasonable price. Super happy we stopped by Norman's and will definitely buy from them again!

I decided to make one more stop, and I pulled into this place. I'd driven past this place countless times. They've got several places down the 126, and I did pull into two of them thinking of buying a plant for my patio. "Third time's the charm" I thought to myself as I pulled into the lot with a semi trailer advertising for the place. I saw other cars and realized I was in the right lot. I got out of my car and started meandering around, looking at the multitudes of potted plants, all organized by type. They had pots of every size, from small desk-pot sized to giant tree-sized pots. Before too long somebody came out to greet me and help me out. I explained my needs; I needed something that was kinda cool looking, and nigh-indesctructable. I have a tendency to forget that plants need watering and care and stuff. I excitedly buy plants, and then put the plants on my patio and then tend to wonder why I have pots with sticks several months later. Benjamin furrowed his brow and lead me over to an aisle of plants. He began pointing out the ones that were more difficult to kill. We hadn't gotten very far down the row before a bush caught my eye. It was a greenish thing with some deep red leaves. It certainly fulfilled the "looking kinda cool" requirement. Benjamin said it was fairly hardy, and drought resistant. That went along way for requirement #2. I decided to get it. I expected it to be a fairly expensive purchase, but was very relieved when Benjamin said it was only twenty bucks. He picked up the plant and brought it over to the trailer that served as their office. He punched my credit card info into the computer, and rang me up. He then put the plant in a great big bag that prevented the dirt from getting all over the trunk of my car. He offered to bag the top as well, to prevent leaves from getting all over the trunk of my car, but I declined. I was more concerned with dirt, leaves I could pick up easily enough and toss out. (Which happened when I got home.) He even carried it over to my car and loaded it into my trunk. Nice job Benjamin. I drove home and planted the bush, and marveled at the price. A paltry twenty bucks for this cool lookin bush that was nearly up to my chest. If at some point I discover one of my pots has a bunch of sticks in it, I'll certainly head back here for something else.

I was impressed by the size of this nursery, the variety of trees, sizes available for purchase, health of the plants and soil they come in, and of course, Maribel, who has been so helpful and patient while I design my landscape. Maribel helped us choose trees that were within our budget, showed us how to trim them, and helped us with design ideas for our space. When I told her I needed fragrant trees, with small (non invasive root systems), that only grew a certain size, she quickly texted me a variety of choices, then drove us around her nursery showing us all the trees. She's incredibly knowledgeable, easy to work with, and is available always to answer our questions. She makes every member of my family feel special (especially my niece/nephew that have visited the nursery with me). When I show her pictures of what I'm looking to accomplish she can quickly tell me the names and characteristics of the plants I like. She's just amazing!!! I highly recommend Maribel and I can't wait to come back and visit when I'm redoing the landscape in a different property.
