The selection will knock your socks off! Bring water and an umbrella. I will be back with my credit card! Well worth every penny and I had many left over. No puedo decir suficientes palabras amables sobre este negocio y todo el personal! He visitado varias veces e incluso he traído a la familia para disfrutar de un día de tranquilidad. Verdaderamente agradecido. Se necesita un hermoso espíritu y equipo para proporcionar una sensación de curación. Lo cual me enamoró mientras paseaba por la propiedad. Hubo recordatorios casi ancestrales... las cosas no serán con lo que empiezo la vida y aunque puede que todavía no coseche lo que he cosido... habrá fruto para alabar mi trabajo... estará allí y otros también pueden disfrutar. Muchas bendiciones para todo el equipo. Gracias por el refresco del alma.

Green Things Nursery is a plant lover's dream. The selection is amazing. I went in mainly to look…read moreat houseplants and was really impressed by the wide range of sizes--everything from small starter plants to some seriously impressive extra-large ones that could probably become a full roommate. I wasn't even shopping for outdoor plants, but it was clear they have a huge variety if you are. It's the kind of place where you walk past section after section and keep thinking, "Oh wow... they have that too?" They also have a great selection of pots, so it's dangerously easy to convince yourself you need "just one more plant" because you already found the perfect pot for it. Definitely a fun place to explore if you love plants... or if you accidentally keep becoming a plant person.

Like I'm bothering her and I shouldn't be there. She told me to go buy fake flowers. Seriously? I came for advise and left upset. I went to another greenhouse and got actual advice and was treated like a human. To the guy with the blue plugs , thank you for trying and wanting to help but she kept talking over you. Rather drive 30 min away to get good help. 2 Star for the guy woman 0 stars.

Been meaning to try Spadefoot forever and finally ended up nearby. Such a sweet outdoor space…read morepacked with a variety of native plants (lots of herbs, greens and bushes/trees this season). I picked out some herbs, a sun gold tomato plant and a large Mexican oregano which I haven't found anywhere else in town. I love how accessible this spot is and that they house the freedge out front as a means of mutual aid for community members to support each other with food. A perfect combo run by great folks!

The staff at Spadefoot Nursery is very knowledgeable and easy going…read more They focus on native and non-invasive plants that will not only survive our climate, but nurture it and help the entire ecology thrive. The selection is never ending and you can find many native plants that are difficult to find, elsewhere, and impossible to find at the large chain nurseries. I've ended up taking so many plants back to larger places (that I won't name, but we all know) because, even when buying them at whatever price, at the time, I already know that they won't last the year that they are guaranteed for. It always seems like such a waste. Built from the ground up, it's nice to go somewhere that you know isn't just a gear in the big box monster machine. Gardening was one of the things that got me through a cancer journey, and yesterday, as I put my hands in sand and soil, I watched a hummingbird light on one of my favorite flowering bushes, that Jared, the owner, helped me pick out, near the beginning. It was little when I chose it, but now is almost five feet high. I don't remember it's name, but if I were to show anyone who works at Spadefoot, they would know what plant it is, where it can thrive, what care it will require, and when it will bloom. With some thought and planning, one can literally have a rotating buffet of blossoming food for all the critters, without adding any dyes, sugars, or plastic feeders. Nature does it all. I think of this nursery, every single morning, when I see this particular bush, which feeds the bees, hummers... Offers shade and shelter to those without wings, and other wonders, and remember how all things are connected. If you want a peaceful, lovely way to spend some time, skip the bustle and take a stroll, through this unpretentious garden space, and take a bit of that home, with you. Also, the name made me curious. So, look it up. It's hecka cool.

It runs 9a-1p and adds a half-dozen little popup craft/artist tables; live music by a local busker; and a couple of food popups. On this occasion they had a vendor selling covered mini-pretzels, including flavors like: chocolate, cinnamon, and spicy, etc. These were tasty but prohibitively expensive at $5 for about 3/4 cup baggie and $9 for 1-/4 cup. I bought the $9 and we demolished them within the hour. The plant offerings vary in size from 1 gal to 5 gal buckets with a few that are larger. Prices float around those of the big box stores and options consist of all of the desert mainstays. The venue is right on noisy 22nd St but it is quaint and beautiful. Parking is free/easy in their adjacent private lot. Staff are present, helpful, and also unobtrusive. Check their hours first!

I saw many things that are on my list to procure on a day when I can talk with someone. Friendly, but not pushy employees give you storage to browse.

The nursery has a hippie layout ( don't expect ordered aisles ) and lots of funky touches (Buddha's, crystals, & more). Their on list of where to find local plantings.

I also got a lovely basil plant. He has a great selection of herbs, including some pots in which you can get several herbs together. He also has a wide array of succulents and other decorative plants, as well as decorative rocks and crystals. Drew was very knowledgeable and kind! I'll definitely be back for more plants (and advice!) in the future! Note: the nearest major intersection is Glenn and Country Club; I suggest you come in via Edith (off of Glenn) as Almartin doesn't connect to Country Club.

After researching online, and speaking with experts at various garden centers and landscapers, the conclusion: Tank's Green Stuff. The customer service agent at Tank's Green Stuff provided excellent information and answered all of our questions as to what soil would be the best option for our garden. She gave us the cost estimate for the soil and delivery fee with a date and time it would be delivered. We ordered two(2) cubic yards of Tank's Green Stuff - Pro Planting Mix to fill our raised beds. The cost estimate was exactly as described, the delivery was on time. Tim, the driver who delivered the soil, added a bonus to the entire experience. When he pulled up to our house in his big, delivery truck -- our neighbor and her children (two-to-15 years old) came outside to watch. He made the experience, not only accommodating for us, but fun for our neighbor and her kids. He even honked the big truck's horn twice before pulling away -- to much applause by the neighbors!! Thank you Tim and Tank's Green Stuff!!
