If it grows in soil, they probably have it. Trees? Check. Bushes? Check. Mysterious plants I couldn't identify but still bought because they looked cool? Double check. This year's hanging baskets are so outrageously colorful, they look like fireworks went off in a flower shop. I hung a few on my deck, and now my neighbors think I hired a professional landscaper or joined a gardening cult. (Maybe both.) I also built a custom planter box (Pinterest, don't fail me now) and needed something show-stopping. Enter: petunias. The Black Mamba and Mayan Sunset petunias are basically floral drama queens in the best possible way. Everything I bought here has outperformed my usual big box store plants, which tend to give up on life the moment I walk away. Even the vegetable starts are thriving like they're auditioning for a salad commercial. Meanwhile, the seeds I got from a chain store are still contemplating germination. No rush, guys. Prices are totally fair, and the staff actually knows what they're talking about, which is refreshing. I'll definitely be back -- probably with even less self control and the desire to fill more planter boxes. And maybe they can help me get a green lawn as well.

We required his assistance for a PAID job. He treated us like any other job. He made an appointment, set a schedule and showed up. Even though he had a mechanical issue on the way to see us - being friends - he COULD have rescheduled and not shown up. His high work ethic, however, did not allow for it. He showed up and within the past 6 hours - he has completed work for us that would have taken us months to do because of lack of knowledge and not having the right tools. Non-stop effort. No "smoking and joking". We highly recommend Arborico and appreciate the professionalism.

I was in need of a new tree after my previous one died and the village refused to replace it. I…read morehave heard about Pine View from numerous neighbors, so I decided to call and see what trees they had in stock and how soon they could come out and plant. I was offered to come and pick out my own tree on the nursery. I took advantage of that, and it was a very joyful experience being part of that process. Tony was extremely knowledgeable about everything and very informative. I felt very comfortable from the first conversation we had. Once I chose my tree, he was able to come within days to install and rip out the roots from the old tree that was left behind. Tony not only called to check on my tree but went out of his way to come check and make sure everything was going exactly how it should. I would absolutely recommend Tony and Pine View for any tree, shrubs, or landscaping needs. I promise you won't be disappointed!

I have been using Pine View Nursery for over 7 years. I kicked & screamed when Tony suggested I use…read morethe high grade mulch. I am so thankful to be working with a true master gardening company. Professional crew, trucks & equipment. Before going to Pine View Nursery we spent so much more time weeding. His mulch creates a crust that keeps weeds from rooting easily. The trees we bought from local places were dying or struggling because we found they imported them from other states. Tony grows all his own stuff which makes it better for you. When someone grows a tree in this state they don't need to warranty it. I bought into the others warranty thing but trees kept dying & it's a pain in the butt to get people back. I will continue to use these guys for every tree or landscaping need. Truly grateful for your team Pine View Nursery. Don't fall for the lowest priced people. You get what you pay for with these guys.

He has owned it for 19 years and now it is strictly for weddings. No store ~ nothing to buy. Lovely grounds, plants, ponds, waterfalls, gazebo, arbor, water fountain, and twinkling lights in the trees. There is a lovely outdoor area set up for the ceremony and then we moved indoors for the cocktail hour. It is open and bright. However, one toilet for about 100 people was interesting. There is a tent, that is airconditioned and probably heated based on the season and weather. Plenty of room to move about so moving around the tables was easy. Just a heads up: they lock the doors for the indoors after everyone has moved to the tent. That means, you must use the toilet facilities attached to the tent. Better than a port-a-potty, but . . . Currently, Swanson is blocked off so you have to drive around the road block.

It's no wonder they've been in business so long! The Gardens are not far from our house, but it's this little slice of paradise tucked away from all the nearby commotions. We loved EVERYTHING about The Gardens. The property is dreamy and beyond well-kept. The flowers, fairy lights and small waterfalls and creek winding through the gardens just give you total serenity and joy. We could not have made a better choice for such a beautiful place to start our new lives together as a married couple. Even all our friends and family could not stop gushing about how stunning the whole place was! Honestly, I hope someone we know gets married here soon because I want to go back and relive those special moments we had from our own wedding. Ladies, when you found your hunny and you just knew that was it, they were the one...well that's how this place made us feel. It was absolutely perfect and am so happy we found it. The Gardens are truly a hidden gem, a little paradise tucked away to get lost in the magical moments of your wedding day!!!
