Aloe plant in a round pot which was purchased from Fernseed.

Fernseed is my favorite go-to plant shop in the Tacoma area! They have a great selection, a variety of options with good prices, and fantastic service! Every plant I have bought from them has been healthy and thriving. And my favorite thing is they will repot plants for you for a great price, they helped me bring two of my plants back to a healthy, thriving state when I thought they were on the verge of dying. Can't recommend them more!

Through their online portal I bought a couple "Autumn Sunset" buckets of blooms for my backyard wedding this past middle of September. I messaged with the Fernseed team more specifics of what I was looking for in colors and they delivered the most perfect selection. Truly great service and perfect flowers & foliage. Thanks all!

I've always wanted to come to the fernseed and today i finally did! i asked the worker (forgot their name-so sorry!) and they were extremely helpful and knowledgeable about plants safe for cats as well as the care required for each plant. the store had a wide collection of cute pots and i will be back to purchase one soon.

My boyfriend sent me flowers from Fernseed. I've shopped in store before and it's always been a great experience and that applies to their floral delivery as well. The flowers are beautiful and the arrangement is lovely! And it was a nice touch getting the info card that said where the flowers came from since we try to shop locally as much as possible. The delivery person was friendly. Excellent service all around! Highly recommend!

Very beautiful hand painted pots, as well as cheap ones made of recycled material. A great selection of plants to choose from.

I am so grateful to have gotten good advice from a knowledgeable resource. George even suggested methods which didn't involve Cascade Gardens' services until later in the process, which was refreshing...I was getting good advice instead of just marketing. Thanks George! I will absolutely use Cascade Gardens and recommend them to anyone looking to remove their bamboo!

He was friendly, super helpful and willing to answer all of the bamboo novice questions we had about it. Clearly the man is passionate about bamboo and it shows. We ended up getting 7 large Dulcis plants to use as a screen in our backyard and couldn't be happier. George also offers services to deliver the bamboo and install it with the barriers needed for the roaming variety. We'll definitely be returning to get more bamboo in the future!

Frank went out of his way to make sure that I had the correct information regarding buying a new hot water tank. He and Dave both made sure they helped me enter the data in the computer since I am a senior. Then the actual people who would be doing the job actually called while I was in the store. Frank helped me with my explanations and then in 3 days I had a team coming to my home to replace my completely dead hot water heater. They were great help. ALl of them.

Took 10 minutes to find someone to help me reach the lumber I needed. Then I paid for it and they set it aside for my contractor to pick up. He showed up there and they didn't have it at will-call. He had to call me several times to reach me because I didn't have my phone with me. It hadn't occurred to me that I needed to stay glued to my phone because picking up items at will call would be ridiculously and unnecessarily complicated. He finally got hold of me and told me they couldn't find a lumber cart with lots of lumber on it at will call. I had him put the employee on the line to figure out what was going on. She tried to make it my fault for not doing will-call right (how does one not do will call right?!!) and said she figured the lumber, which I had told her had a receipt taped to it, had been sent back to the shelves after about an hour at will call. After my needless worrying that I'd wasted all that time picking through their crappy lumber to find some good pieces, and my contractor wasting about 30 minutes of his time, the Home Depot employees FINALLY figured out that there are TWO will-call areas at that store. How do people work at will call and not know that????? And there it was, sitting at the OTHER will call, right where it had been left, waiting for my contractor. It's always an adventure going to Home Depot, and never the good kind.

He tells me he wants me to grind three large stones into bird baths and deliver them to him on site at the place of business. I arrived two days later with the three large stones that I carved. One of them being the aquamarine one that I bought from them for $55 plus tax. The owner's wife tells me that there must have been a miscommunication because they don't want my bird baths. What!!! I had carved them beautifully and I delivered them They weigh approximately 400 to 500 lb.. I asked her what was going on-I was explicitly told that the owner wanted three of my bird baths.. obviously there's no communication between the husband and wife.. I had supplied many bird baths last year and the husband said we sold them all-The owner's wife tells me we had trouble selling them we still have some hanging around here.. yeah I didn't see any anywhere. If you're a vendor be careful! It was a real surprise and a real disappointment!!! Gerald Hartzell spanaway WA
