If you need to cover an area with rock, gravel, landscape fabric, or mulch and you are not sure…read morewhat to get, this is the place to go. I had gone to other places to see their few options, but I was not clear about which to use or how much I would need. I arrived at Pine with photos of the area I planned to cover along with dimensions and with the house in the background of the photos. Pine has extensive displays of all options available in Lawrence, far more than you will find anywhere else in Lawrence. I walked around to look at the displays and then went inside to ask for advice All could not have been more clear. By the time I had left, I had chosen the type and quantity of rock for the landscaping, and I knew precisely how much I would need. I passed the information on to my landscaper to pick up and spread. I undoubtedly made better choices than I could have made without going to Pine, and I saved a lot of time. All was clear and fast.

Whether you're tackling a small or very extensive project, Pines has an excellent selection of…read morevarious types of rocks and gravel to fit all of your landscaping needs!

I'm so glad my mom and I decided to check this place out. Super cute outside and inside; I was…read moresurprised by the extent of the plants they have available.

Not going back - my choice. I used to like it there but they don't seem to take the situation serious and it seemed different this time. The cashier lady was not very friendly and one lady pushed us out of the way to water plants. You can't move around there with those carts, so we had to get out of the way, it's crowded isles. I found better deals at other nurseries in town. Your choice - mine is elsewhere, not there.

I called them about it twice and stopped by in person a couple of other times. There were never any attempts by them to contact me. No status updates, nothing. There is a lack of organization in the shop. My repair ticket was missing from their log book. They did not know which saw was mine; I had to identify it for them. I had to tell them the case sitting in the corner was also mine. I had brought in a chain to be sharpened at the same time; they had lost it. To be fair, they were apologetic, and they gave me a new chain and refunded my $45 that was the upfront cost of diagnosing the problem without me having to ask. However, I will not be going back there.

I then asked about purchasing soil I asked the price and was told a price higher than what was on their website. Their website price is 29.00 he was telling me the price was 34.99. And he was unable to honor that price because it was a typo. But if I was to purchase online he would honor that price. They wanted me to waste more of my time when they could easily honor that lower price. Of course I complained and another 10 min went by, he finally said he would honor the lower price. When I was checking out he scanned the soil and to his surprise the soil was 29.99. He wasted my time arguing over a price that was the their price. I bought over 150 in soil, no-one offered to help load or even opec the door when I left. F this guy will not be going back. I'll buy from Amazon next time. Earl may is extremely over priced. Shop there and pull up any of there items online and your looking at a 10 dollar price hike. It's not a local company it's an expensive chain.

Not only did this not happen, I actually enjoyed my time in there the several times I've gone in. I kid you not! Now, I fully admit that I usually would only go into Cottin's because the K would be super enthusiastic about shopping in there and I can't say I share the same enthusiasm, but oh, OK, they have a lot of awesome garden stuff and hello, are those pink flamingoes?!?! There's a lot to love about Cottin's. They rent cotton candy (COTTIN Candy?!) and icee machines. They sell all kinds of tape. They sell a lot of different colored and sized novelty light bulbs. They sell old school Radio Flyer wagons. It feels like it could be 1950 in there, but with a 2010 sensibility. The staff, all young and friendly, rule the school. As Lydia A mentions below, they are part of what makes Cottin's such an enjoyable place to be. A "place to be"?! Yes! It's an experience! Even getting keys made is kinda fun (OK, well, that's an exaggeration. It is quick and painless, however!) OTOH, you'd have to drag me kicking and screaming into one of my most hated stores ever...HOME DEPOT. Blargh! Here's to the true mom & pop sensibility of Cottin's (check out their cute retro bumper stickers while you're there and slap one on your toolbox) with their fair prices, excellent customer service and the way they make you feel like anything is possible so I'm going to start building that garden shed I've always wanted...I JEST.
