This is the best plant place I've found since a well known nursery in College Park closed a few…read moreyears ago. The selection is not as great, and the prices are a bit higher, but staff are friendly and helpful. The drive is also somewhat longer for me. Recently I noticed quite by accident that they have been adding a 50 cent "fuel and freight adjustment" to every purchase, no matter how small. I could understand if it were a percent of the purchase, and if they were up front about it. However adding a 50 cent surcharge to a $7 purchase is a bit much. I would have sent this comment to them directly if I could have found a way to do so on their website.

The manager Mr. Carlos didn't care to look at the pictures. He refused to replace the tree or refund the money despite the 1 year warranty the sales people said we had when they were buying the tree. He just said he couldn't do that as the store doesn't provide compensation for lost trees. I wouldn't recommend buying bigger trees in that nursery. The store doesn't honour warranty.

The greenhouse was filled with a great selection of plants, all of which were well organized and appeared healthy and well cared for. At the front of the store, they also have a fun assortment of unique planters, vases, and other plant accessories that are worth browsing, even if you're just stopping in for a few plants.

We moved into a house last summer and first on my list was handling the yard. The backyard had a…read morelot of bamboo, and throughout the first summer and fall it spread significantly. We attempted to remove some ourselves but were quickly overwhelmed by the task. I researched native plant landscapers and came across Swamp Rose Co-op. After reaching out, Jeff, one of the owners, came to do a site visit. He was thorough in his presentation of plans and this February we had them come and do bamboo removal and plant some native trees and shrubs to act as a privacy screen. The Swamp Rose team was amazing! They pulled out over 2 tons of bamboo and roots! They planted native trees and shrubs which are thriving. Our backyard woodland meadow dreams are coming true. We have the team coming back in a few weeks to rip out the standard plants seen in the Silver Spring area (liriope, lilies, weeds) to replace with a native garden and we can't wait. One of my favorite aspects of this company is it is a co-op. The employees can be owners, and those who aren't are still paid a living wage as calculated by the MIT living wage calculator. They do excellent work! It is hard to find a native landscaper but this team is fantastic.

Gil and Brooke Run Trees are fantastic! If you are looking for large trees (3.5" caliper, over 20…read morefeet in height), Gil has a wonderful stock at wholesale prices. I've been working on a multi-year project to reforest about an acre of my property, replacing all the turf grass with native trees, shrubs, and perennials. I have purchased about 40 trees from Gil and BRT over the last few years - Maples, Oaks, White Spruce, Hawthornes, Dogwoods, Redbuds, Silverbells, Birch, Serviceberries, and Sweetgums. These trees are larger than anything you can get at most nurseries and only a fraction of the cost. His awesome crew will come deliver and install these giant trees with machines (if the site is accessible) or manually if needed (his crew lugged a few trees through a deep wooded area to access a planting site). Gil has also been a tremendous resource for any concerns I've had about the trees. He is a trained arborist and has a wealth of knowledge. He gets back to me very quickly anytime I have a question about any of my trees or when I'm looking for tips on how to address any of a variety of issues. He even stops by from time to time to see how everything is doing. One new tree was uprooted by a heavy wind storm and he was there to fix it that week! Only one dogwood didn't survive the transplant the first year and he replaced it the next year for no cost. Now, two years into starting my project, my forest is really coming to fruition - I never would've been able to do this without Gil and Brooke Run Trees!
