The first reviewer stated the owner was no help to a inexperienced grower... my first impression…read morewas the opposite. I told him my wife and I were interested in growing hydroponics as a hobby and for the quality food that comes with it. He took a lot of time to show me many different options with all the upfront cost. After I made a purchase of some of his quality products I've called a few times with additional questions to which he's been very outgoing and full of good advice for my trouble shooting. I'm very satisfied with my experience at this store. Also, after going online (Amazon) Grow Big in comparison has many higher end products that I simply didn't find for sale elsewhere.

Also, Alison has been very responsive opening, fixing, and closing down the new irrigation system.

Called Home depot to get a new schedule... told me 5 days from now and couldn't pin down a 4 hr window, essentially making me plan to be available 12 hrs that day. this is completely unacceptable. I will never ever buy an item from home depot with 3rd party install again.

They will do landscape design which will cost about $500. That money will be given back as a gift…read morecard. Sounds like an OK deal except that their designing is no designing. I had Nick over and the first thing he asked me was "What do you want to do." I told him some ideas I had and he said that is what he would do. He said he would put a tall plant here and some short ones there. Why would I agree to be locked into their high prices when I am obviously doing the designing myself? I sent him on his way because it was pointless to take advantage of the "design" service. I was very excited about getting some design help but now I am very disappointed.

I have enjoyed walking this Garden Center in Darboy for 3 seasons now. My focus is on the trees,…read moreTheir cultural habits and so, their health, is very fine. Shade trees sold well for them this year. The trees' relative placements caught my eye. When the Garden Center is in full bloom, both the displays, and knowledge of staff, of the annual & perennial selections are impressive. Good street side 'curb appeal' renovation of Garden Center. My sister, a lifelong resident here, says that Schmalz' is the only place in the Valley where the annuals still look good at the end of their season. If it's higher in price, you will still get what you pay for. Schmaltz also has a vigorous Landscaping business. I have only seen one site of theirs, but I have seen many of their trucks at the Garden Center! That site is The Houdini Plaza in downtown Appleton. Nice use of curves, as appears to be the case throughout Appleton. Interesting choices of trees. Good blocks of evergreens for the winter, and trees whose leaves are falling now for the summer. There are Sycamores! They take a long time to mature, and are not often planted. They are placed right next to the annual variegated Spider plants used quite effectively as a massed bedding plant.at this year. My critique? The same as what I heard at the other Garden Center I worked a this year. The price. And what do you get for it? Here, you get clean, you get variety, you get help. Perhaps on the down side is the emphasis on 'product', such as root simulator or fertilizer, by placing it right next to the Easy Elegance roses, which are supposedly known for not needing this much life support. Why not place garden hoses next to half of your stock instead, in order to suggestively sell? Just sayin'. Me, I have walked through this place many times this year, with coffee cup in hand. It has been such a pleasure.
