    I remember visiting here years ago and just thinking it was another typical home and garden store. My wife is certainly glad we stopped in because they offer a lot more, and she actually purchased a hat. Just take your time and look around because they certainly have a lot of merchandise spread out in several rooms.

    This is a must stop every time I'm in Blowing Rock. They have everything you can ever want and it's a great place to come for ideas.

    Thank heavens! I arrived safely. After careful packaging and a rather long trip in variable…read moreweather, I made it to the home of a very serious gardener, who was very grateful that she had found a Chickasaw Plum online. She didn't have my spot prepared quite yet (she is working on that this week), but she tucked me into a large pot so that I could stretch my legs after shipping. I tell you, traveling that way in a box is almost as bad as an airplane trip these days. Anyway, thank you Gardens of the Blue Ridge for making a commitment to growing the finest native plants. We love you!

    Another fabulously beautiful shipment of greens from this North Carolina family run business. For…read morethe past 10 years since I discovered they ship boxwood stems for a Christmas event I organize for friends, I've also ordered my front door wreath and roping for front door and lamp post as well as my mantle greenery. It has always arrived fresh , well made and full! Shipping may be a little pricey but well worth it in my opinion to order where you know everything is fresh and well made! Each Christmas, I organize a group of 5 friends who gather to make boxwood tabletop trees ( all while enjoying cocktails)using boxwood tips supplied by Gardens of the Blue Ridge. Again their product is packed and shipped with care and arrives fresh as can be! I've spoken with several employees including Katy and Savannah regarding delivery issues, not on their end but UPS' and everyone has been , pleasant and helpful with great follow through. I highly recommend this supplier... beautiful fresh greens!

    We get most of our landscaping supplies from Turtle Creek. They have so many species of plants, and…read moreLee is very knowledgeable about each one. The best part for me is that all of the plants are grown on-site, so they are already acclimated to our climate zone and ready for success in the landscape. They make sure you have everything you need before you check out, which is important because each plant has different soil and nutrient requirements. No other place I've been to does that, I really appreciate the extra care.

    This is a mixed review. They do have an excellent range of shrubs and trees. Staff are very…read morehelpful and knowledgeable about the various varieties. Problem is with their Price List "Quality Discount Program". It states over $500 - 5% discount, etc. Then it states "runs per calendar year (Jan - Dec). All purchases add to total dollars. First visit we spent $468.53. We went again today and spent $177.57. We then asked about discount. They said you have to spend $500.00 all at once. Thereafter receive 5%. My husband told them that's not clear and then why does it say "All purchases add to total dollars". Gentleman said they have had people stopping in asking the same question but it's after $500.00. My suggestion is they need to change the wording!!! Also if $500 is total all at once why didn't employee or office tell us. We could've very easily added another shrub and met the $500.00. We are new to area and have decided this is a bit shady way to treat customers. Will take our $ elsewhere.
