I've been going here for a couple years now and unfortunately, I agree with recent reviews that the…read morecustomer service has slipped. It's really hit or miss when I go these days. Aside from the service (more on that below), I find they usually have a decent stock of a variety of plants and they're usually pretty healthy, if a bit pricey compared to big box retailers. I do still prefer to shop here because it feels better than spending at a big box store but it also didn't take much research to discover Pacific Topsoils is owned by GRO-Well Brands, which is itself a conglomerate and by no means a local or small business, which I've seen some reviews assume. Service wise, it all depends on who you talk to and what mood they're in. Recently, I called to check on a product and the young man who answered brusquely said they didn't have it, so I caved and ordered it from Amazon. Then, I went to pick up some plants and discovered they had what I'd called about. I told the older gentleman who was ringing me up about the exchange and he somewhat rudely just said, "well, we always have that in stock," like I should've known, not the other employee who should've known. On the other hand, he did put out a call for someone to help me with the several bags of soil I ordered and a friendly young gal answered. She had clearly been working hard all morning but she wa so helpful and asked if there was anything else she could help me with before she left to assist another customer she noticed. If all the employees had her friendliness and pep, this place would get 5 stars, easy.

I've been a regular customer at Grey Barn for a number of years. I live close by. I spend quite a…read morebit of money there. I've been very happy with the quality the annuals I buy every spring. The perennials, not so much. I've had a number of roses, red salvia, heucheras and all my cone flowers not come back the 2nd year. Some of my perennials do well so I will continue to buy those at Grey barn. The others I will get a different nursery sadly.

In September, I attended a wedding at this beautiful venue!…read more The ceremony took place on the perfectly green lawn with a lovely man-made pond and fountain in the backdrop. The weather couldn't have been better... sunny but not too hot, so I felt comfortable without any covering over the seating area. There is a cottage several yards away where the bridal party got ready, and it served as the starting point for them to begin their walk down the aisle. One might think that the main road running parallel to the property would be disruptive, but it's not a very busy street, so you don't hear the cars driving by. During cocktail hour, guests were directed to the covered bar area to grab drinks and the venue had set up some lawn games like Jenga and cornhole for additional entertainment during this time. There was plenty of space for socializing and capturing photos. The reception was held in the Grand Barn that also had an outdoor patio area perfect for a buffet line. The large barn doors at both ends helped keep the air flowing and there were 11 tables that comfortably seated all the guests with about nine people per table. On top of this, there was enough space for a small band to set up and play live music. I loved the string lighting that draped down from the ceiling which illuminated the entire barn in a magical glow. Restrooms are in a separate structure out by the lawn, so it is a little walk away from the barn. Each one has two stalls and one sink. I believe both are gender-neutral. They were super clean, air conditioned and well-ventilated. I really admired the property grounds and the serene location away from the bustle of Seattle. From a wedding guest perspective, I would highly recommend Trillium for your big day.

My daughter tied the knot at Trillium on May 17th, 2025. Initially, we planned to tour several…read morevenues before making our choice, but after visiting Trillium, we immediately canceled our other appointments. The venue is truly stunning, featuring a fantastic location, a breathtaking fountain in the center of a pond, and ample space for parking and guests. There is a designated cocktail area where our bartender set up, allowing guests to mingle comfortably. The reception space is magnificent, adorned with beautiful lighting and silk draping from the rafters, plus a prep kitchen conveniently located next to the dining area, making it an excellent choice for caterers. One of the key advantages is that the rental spans from Friday at noon to Sunday at noon, which alleviated any stress regarding setup and takedown. Additionally, there is an on-site Airbnb included in the package. We booked it for both Thursday and Monday, ensuring the groomsmen never had to leave the premises. This was the best decision we made for the wedding party. There is also a beautiful area for the bride and bridesmaid to get ready complete with their own station with a mirror, emergency items (bobby pins, sewing kits, hair spray, makeup removers, etc.) and outlets for hair essentials. I wholeheartedly recommend this venue. Karissa and Tatijana managed the entire wedding with remarkable professionalism and care. On a day when it hadn't rained for over 25 years (talk about luck!), they skillfully accommodated and rearranged everything that needed attention without ever causing me concern. I am incredibly impressed by both of them; they are friendly, accommodating, and a pleasure to work with. If I had more daughters, I would undoubtedly choose this venue again.

My recent trip resulted in an impulse buy of a jar of the best mango chili jam and the most beautiful strawberries. You get a level of quality and service that bigger stores would never provide. For example, they will re-pot your plant for free (if you purchase plant and pot from them). And they offer container design to help your plant placements benefit the most from their environment. These are amazing perks for a novice gardener like me! They also offer delivery which is great for getting tall plants or larger/heavier orders home, and have master gardener clinics on Saturdays from spring through summer. Pricing can range from relatively affordable to pretty high - just depends on what you're looking for.

Ugh, I love plants so much! My friend who lives in Redmond told me about Jungle Cat Plant Shop, so…read moreof course I had to make a visit EVEN THOUGH I DON'T NEED ANY MORE PLANTS. But yes, yes I do. Located in downtown Redmond, Jungle Cat Plant Shop is a tiny shop in a small business strip. We visited on a Saturday and the place was cramped because of all the people inside and how tiny the shop is. But that doesn't a stop us plant parents! Jungle Cat Plant Shop really maximizes the use of its small space, by offering a variety of different plants, with some in planters, hanging, displaying on shelves, etc. It also had a humidifier for the plants inside, and sells planters and some small gift items, like local art prints, greeting cards, pins, etc. I saw on the entrance sign that there's a shiba greeter here I was hoping to meet, but didn't see the doggy in my visit. But I love that it's a dog friendly spot and the staff was very welcoming here. This is the kind of business that's much needed in Redmond and the kind of business that we need to continue supporting! Love these small mom and pop shops that brings such a wonderful addition to the community!

- Great for outdoor plants -…read more I wrote a review for this place ages ago when I was only interested in succulents. Their succulents are very limited, and they don't have that many different types of echeverias here. However, I got in outdoor plants two years ago since I got a bigger yard, and this place has been great for me since. This place is not gigantic like the flower world, nor is their price amazing. However, it's located in an expensive area in Bellevue and the price is reasonable given its location. They have a lot of shrubs and trees on top of other outdoor plants, and a small collection of indoor houseplants. They have many different types of fruit trees, including cherry, blueberry, kiwi, fig, grape, and so on. They also have rare ones but they are gone since they only have 4-5 of each type. I'm not sure if they keep more somewhere else. They have tons of different rhododendrons with different colors (white, orange, res, purple, yellow, etc). The bigger size costs $55, and the small one is around $23. I've found the same one (big size) at Costco for $25 or so, so it's important to know what you are looking for. Don't come here for common plants, but the rare ones that's harder to find elsewhere. Oh yeah, they also have 6-7 types of clematis here as well. I've gotten several lilacs here last year, and they are all blooming and growing nicely in my yard. I also love their Allium giganteum display around the "fountain" so much that I bought some bulbs and planted some in my yard.

The owner obviously has a green thumb, there was not an inch of ground, benches, tables, and shelves that wasn't covered with her handiwork - flowers, ground cover, vegetables, vines - it's all there. There was even a number of areas where she had free plants that she couldn't see throwing away or composting if someone could put them to good use. We got there during one of her regular plant sales so ended up spending ~40% of what we'd have spent at the big nursery. Great value, great selection, awesome service - we're glad we dropped by and will be back again.

Last visit I had, the self checkout person was being sassy for no reason. I did not ask for help and was taking my time and behind me I hear her loudly tell me "press check out"...." press card" and more. You could tell she hates her job and just wants to treat people like they are stupid or something. It was weird. I just ignored her and never turned around to look at her as not to give her bad attitude any attention. When leaving I saw she had brown hair with a long ponytail over 30. I really don't understand the micromanaging and taunting of customers here. Her behavior was off putting. Maybe avoid her at all costs if you run into this person or hopefully they put her somewhere not around customers as she can't handle it and this is coming from someone who worked customer service for years. Maybe some staff needs re training on customer service and friendliness? I would return when looking for a specific item but because some staff are rude I definitely will avoid the staff.

And props to their app--the store locator feature is like having GPS for your DIY ambitions. Now, asking for help? Total roulette.

Other times, it's a deer-in-headlights newbie, or--if the universe is really feeling cheeky--Grumpy Gus from aisle 14 who looks like he lost a bet just showing up to work.
