If you're looking for trees, shrubs, or flowers at excellent prices, this is the place. The owners are incredibly friendly and know their stuff; they gave us some great tips about transplanting the Japanese maple and large shrub we purchased. We definitely plan to return!

Before I stopped by, I called to ask some questions about purchasing soil for a garden bed I am building. Debbie, who helped me on the phone, was so friendly and transferred me to Butch so that he could help explain everything about the soil. He knew the ins and outs of where the soil came from and which soil would work best for my project. He also helped me with how much I needed by calculating the measurements of my garden and gave me the true cost of the bags I would purchase. He also said that, if they were closed on the day I was able to come, I could call his personal phone and he would meet me to assist. So sweet!! When we arrived at the nursery, we were surprised at how many plants they have! There's a large variety to choose from and they have a listing of all the items they have available for sale. We were greeted by Debbie who was so sweet and kept calling me sugar :). She talked us through the soils they had and brought out a cart to help us load the bags we chose. After we were done loading, she and Butch continued talking with us and provided tons of helpful information on how to maintain our plants and garden. They were super helpful and helped us to avoid unnecessary purchases we thought we needed to make. Before we left, she gave me a hug and sent us on our way. We will definitely be returning as we love supporting local business and appreciate how helpful and friendly they were! One note before you go: they do accept credit cards but there is an extra charge for any orders $30 or less. Something to consider before heading there :).

I called Dylan and he gave me the run around and said he would call Chris and find out what was going on. He never (Dylan) called me back...I made at least 5 phone calls. Dylan told me he could not return my phone calls because he was too busy. Poor and unprofessional excuse! He then told me he wanted to make it right with me and had someone else call me, and never showed up. I asked to speak with Dylan and he refused to hand him the phone. Unacceptable!!! Do not use this company! There wasn't any confusion! Dylan was giving his friend Chris some side business to make extra money. Chris did come out and said he would send me a quote and never did. NO CONFUSION!!!

They were professional, transparent on pricing, considerate of my time, and even offered advice on my project. I went to another landscape supply store in the area before finding TLS and was made to feel stupid for not immediately understanding how things are priced and was concerned that as a non landscaper and young woman that may just be my experience in dealing with these places. That was NOT the case with TLS. TLS was patient, kind, and a real pleasure to visit. I was surprised how customer forward they were given they're a bulk supply store! And their prices are competitive across the board and the cheapest around for some materials. If you're a homeowner looking for affordable supplies, go here!

There is a dry bar offering mock-tails that you can purchase as you journey through the garden. Pricing is very reasonable and the staff very knowledgeable and friendly. There is also a small coffee shop located on the property near the lake. The small seating area overlooks a pond - creating a peaceful and serene atmosphere while taking in your delicious drinks and/or food. Definitely worth a visit and will definitely make my way back!

Don't be scammed like I did. I wish I could give less than 1 star, but not possible. I ordered…read more"designer" mulch from Capital Mulch. After spending over $600 on 20 yards of mulch, I received a truckload of the same mulch I can get for FREE from the local tree guy with dye in it. It is garbage. I tipped them $30 prior, just to find out later that I tipped the owner who pretended not to be the owner. I confronted him that the mulch was not the standard it should be and we walked to neighbor who had true designer mulch. The office told me I should have let the driver, who was also the owner know there was a problem. I did and could not have been more clear to the driver, who pretended I need to call the office. They tried to tell me it was designer because it is dyed, but the other dyed mulches are not called designer. It is a scam. They later threatened to hire a subcontractor to come pick it up. However, they were going to use my money to pick it up. They draw you in with slightly lower pricing and no delivery. I asked them to figure something out and was willing for them to come get it, but not on my dime. The worst part is how they treated me, and then made nasty accusations that I threatened them. Ridiculous! They told me I should use it around back, which is what I would do with free mulch. Do yourself a favor, pay just a bit more and go anywhere else. Steve

We…read moremoved from South Carolina to Cary in 2001, and when the end of November came around, we realized we needed to find a Christmas tree farm. Back Achers Christmas Tree Farm is the answer! It is a family-owned business, and everyone working there is so nice. I love seeing the owner out there in his bright orange cap. He always has a smile on his face. As is true with all things that come from nature, some years have better "tree pickins" than others. However, I cut down my tree here the weekend after Thanksgiving, and there are still plenty of beautiful trees available. Back Achers provides the saws. You grab one when you arrive and walk down the fresh pine smelling aisles of trees. If you don't want to cut down your own tree, but still want to support a local business, they do sell pre-cut trees as well. The prices are very affordable. I found my 8-footer this year for $32. They also provide a $1-off coupon on their website. After you cut down your tree, they shake it all out, wrap it, and strap it to your car. I highly recommend making a trip to Back Achers part of your holiday tradition!
