    Never buy any river rocks or gravel from Phelps. I just bought a ton of 3-5 river rock, and at…read moreleast 25% of it is lumped clay and sand. Rocks are filthy and take gallons of water to wash. Terrible, my neighbor wanted to take it back and dump it there. But I decided to post here and help others. Won't be going there again. If I could give them a negative review, I would have. Also bought topsoil at the same time, and it is even worse - full of sand, dust, and mostly clay.

    We frequently shopped at Jenkins and thought we would give Phelps a try but their selection of…read moreannuals and perennials was very limited. I ordered a truck load delivery of topsoil and was appalled by the quality. Full of pebbles and a dust-like quality that hardly resembled soil. I called the owner to express my concerns. He returned my call and said pebbles should be minimal, but that's about all he said. We will not order or buy from him again. Side note: The owner has a "GUNS ARE WELCOME" sign hanging behind the register. While we were checking out, my 7yo asked him why he has the sign hanging since guns usually are not welcome (in our home, that'the case). The owner didn't seem able to answer and just shrugged it off. This a fair question considering that 2nd graders undergo active shooter drills on a regular basis in this country. We miss Jenkins!

Stopped at the Botanical Emporium and received outstanding service with a huge selection of flowers. This place has everything flower related and a small greenhouse that was in operation in November. Super friendly people.

We love Elizabeth's flowers! SO many compliments at both events. We're still thinking about her gorgeous flowers in 2021. Elizabeth is super creative and has strong opinions about flowers! She thinks outside the box, and her vision may differ from yours. For events, I recommend asking Elizabeth to make you a test arrangement. I did that and the test arrangements weren't exactly what I was expecting, so I explained my concerns and she adjusted the flowers both times - for the wedding and the anniversary party. Revised test arrangements were perfect. Prices are absolutely unbeatable... Her flowers are gorgeous, huge, fresh and last SO long. I seriously don't know how she defies the laws of biology... The flowers are already mostly open for the event, but they open even more in the days afterward and they LAST and LAST. I could go on and on about how beautiful these flowers are... and I am PICKY. I can't wait until the next time our family hires Elizabeth again. The flowers are the stuff of dreams. *Swoon*

    I recently came here for the first time in a while and was really impressed! Before coming I called…read moreto see if they carried pond plants such as water hyacinths, as I had been super disappointed by the selection at another favorite garden center recently. They said they had them and they were really nice. They weren't kidding. They had a beautiful selection of water lilies, lettuce and hyacinths and I really stocked up for my Koi pond. There was also a huge selection of flowers, plants, ornamental trees, veggies and herbs, pretty much anything you could be looking for garden-related. The customer service was fantastic as I was asked several times if there was anything specific I was looking for and if they could help me. It was nice to see several people on the floor working and anxious to be helpful to customers. I also found the prices to be really fair here. The water hyacinths were a couple of dollars less than the sad looking ones at the other place, and the couple of plants I got were priced at below what I would have paid at a big box store. I would always rather support a local business. I also remember from when I was younger that they do nice special events here such as Santa photos during the holidays. It's a very nice shop and if you have any questions about whether they have what you need, call before you go as they seem more than happy to be helpful!

    I've only ever visited around the holidays, but there's lots of decor and it's so nostalgic, I used…read moreto love coming here growing up. I love the Christmas tree room. Meder's is such a hidden gem in West Mifflin

    This review is written regarding the best feeds store on Wildwood this past fall. It is written now…read moreas not many people look for a nursery review late fall and winter but rather the spring. My daughter's wedding was on October 28th. We were hunting live mums for decorating. We called MULTIPLE local nurseries. No one was willing to help, commenting that we could purchase what was left at the end of the season. As I continued down my list, I called best feeds on Wildwood. I had great experiences there before. I was shocked when the gentleman that answered the phone said to stop in and that they could certainly do something for me!!! He introduced me to two female staff members who were experts in matching colors, mums that bloomed later in the season, and sizes that I would need for each space. They also taught us how to make the blooms open at just the right time. The day of pick up they were all organized on a rack and ready to go. Can't say enough about the plant knowledge that the staff possesses. I really won't shop anywhere else for my plant needs moving forward. Can't say enough about how much it made her wedding day and the complements we received about our outside decorations. Cathy B

The one problem I had was there where virtually no customer sales help at all and after about 15 minutes I gave up and decided to leave. In the entire time I was there not one sales person came up to me and asked if they could help me find something???????? For me that is poor customer service even if they have nice plants and trees and a huge selection customer service should always be #1.

I had to remotely select and order a sympathy gift for someone in their local area, and have limited knowledge of houseplants, their meaning, etc. They walked through several expert recommendations with me from prayer plants to prosperity plants, helped me select a pot fitting the occasion and recipient's aesthetic. They also proactively offered to plant it for me, and deliver it to their door directly vs shipping or using a service. They asked if I had a letter to send them include, that they could design into a card to include with the order. They really went above and beyond and took any and all stress out of the process, while my mind was a million other places given the situation. Thank you Ruby Flora, for making this process so much easier on me and for delivering a quality sympathy gift on very short notice. It's clear you really care about your customers, in addition to being the area experts on houseplants.

    So excited to have discovered this plant shop in the area!…read more Fun highlights to note: - You can take your plants in there and they can transfer them to a bigger pot for you! - They host fun events in their back room. They have an upcoming one for kids where they can plant their own plant in a fun themed planter. Can't wait to bring the boys back for that! - Huge selection of plants to choose from. You can tell the owners really care about the quality of their product! Can't wait to come back!
