Al Cook is literally in the middle of nowhere. And it's worth the drive…read more There are several smaller nurseries in the area, and the big-box home improvement stores carry plants, and Al Cook beats them all. It has a large layout with a large selection. I noted several prospective shrubberies and researched them, and all of them will do well in the Piney Woods area with its frequent rain and hot weather. Which tells me that Al Cook would not sell a plant if it wouldn't do well here, whether it's flowers, bushes, or trees. Prices are in line with other nurseries and a little higher than the big boxes, but Al Cook doesn't benefit from bulk wholesale like the big boxes do. The man who helped me out was indeed helpful, including helping put the many shrubberies I bought into my SUV, and quite chatty. He even gave me a tip about a new barbecue joint near Bevil Oaks, and mentioned Beaumont's most loved BBQ place (as a newer resident who loves his meat, this information comes in handy). Highly recommended!
