Landscaping reviews across the US

Took my kids and we enjoyed a stroll through the garden - great place to take kids! Their stream, bridges and turtles make it an adventure. And the kitties were fun to show some love.

Esposito employees are very knowledgable about plants, unlike Tallahassee Nurseries (don't bother going there). Competitive pricing and better quality plants than Lowe's or Home Depot.

Thank you so much Amanda! You are amazing!!!! You helped us so much picking out plants and flowers for a special memorial for such a special person! You have been a blessing to us!!!Bless you and keep that beautiful spirit alive!

With the relatively small investment for soil amendments and starter plants I have gotten a substantial yield on my vegetables this year. Esposito's continues to be my go-to source of high-quality plants, fertilizers, soil amendments, and expert advice.

It's working! Thank you Esposito Garden Center for fixing our drainage problem. We love our river! It works, and it looks great too!

I'm beyond impressed with the service I received at this small engine repair shop! Mike went above and beyond to get my husbands lawnmower up and running like new. His expertise and attention to detail are top-notch, and his friendly demeanor made the whole experience a breeze. The shop itself is small, but that just means they can focus on giving each customer personalized attention. I'd highly recommend Mike and this shop to anyone in need of small engine repairs - outstanding work, outstanding service. Thank you Mike we will return!

Knowingly sold me infected plants. Septoria leaf spot or a similar fungal issue.

Great selections , good quality. Bobby was very kind, personable and quite helpful the day I went.

Beth, the florist, did a wonderful job on my bouquet set. It looked like every flower was placed with thought and precision (x2). Thank you! Love it.
Thanks goes to the guy there who helped me out to the car with these. The crew there are very helpful and patient.

Lots of plants and flowers. Everything you need to make them grow. It's that time of year for the Christmas decorations to be on display. Lots of trees.. decorated and undecorated! Will recommend and shop again!

Nice, knowledgeable staff; pretty, cool.season flowers and veggies to select from right now. They also have a huge selection of bagged soil and mulch; rocks are sold by the pound or bagged. Inside the store they sell chemicals, tools, gloves, bulbs, hoses/sprinklers, growing supplies, etc.

Absolutely love this garden center. They have all the plants at reasonable prices, and great customer service. Love Cheryl in Lily's especially. She is great. I was only intending on looking but I just had to buy some things because of her. 😍

Wonderful plant assortment..Purchased a crepe myrtle last year as a twig... This is the result...Awesome, just awesome. Ralph assured us we wouldn't be disappointed!!
Got some roses several years ago ....Was not disappointed 😀

I love this garden center. I found amazing deals and amazing plants. I always find something unique here. I love being able to stop here and shop whenever I am in town if possible.

Oh my what a store in Tallahassee. You will not be disappointed. If you love gardening, decorating and fashion. Yes fashion.
Customer Service I give 100/100. Each employee that I met or walked by spoke to me directly. They asked if there was anything I needed or if they could help me. The free popcorn was also a great treat. It’s a little pricey for me compared to small town living. One item that I purchase regularly was $18.00 higher. I really thought it was a pricing error. Nope..
I will say if you like to shop it will take about four hours or more to look at all they have. The home decor section is to die for. They also have a florist. I certainly will be back.

UPDATE 2026:
Esposito's has been doing the lighting at our bed & breakfast for quite a while now, and recently when we had to remove a tree and lost some of the lights Espositos had previously installed, they stepped in without hesitation.

Colby went above and beyond to help us out on a very short timeline. He not only fixed and replaced what was lost, but completely refreshed the design and gave our event venue a whole new look. The space feels elevated, intentional, and honestly just magical now.

We’re so grateful for the care, creativity, and professionalism Colby brought to this project. It’s clear he truly cares about his work and his clients. Thank you!!

I can’t say enough nice things about Dexter and his team for the lights they did at our Bed & Breakfast! They really went above and beyond to make our yard look and feel extra special. We are so thankful!

Horrible place they got popcorn at the door to try and get little old lady's in there but really you can buy same stuff off of temu there return policy sucks Tallahassee nursery definitely has a better return policy the upper management needs to be fired there lower management was great all and all I wish I could give them a zero star review but Google wouldn't let me

They did a great job fixing the drainage problems in my backyard! Friendly and professional. The onsite workers were friendly and explained what they were doing anytime I asked. Thank you !!!

Ms. Vicki was the sweetest soul ever. I came in looking for a plant for my boyfriend and I bumped into her and she helped me find the best! I know nothing about plants and she was so kind to tell me everything there is to know about watering and growth. She even helped me pick out a nice pot and raised it with the original potting it came in so I didn’t have to replant it! The best experience ever!! Thank you Ms. Vicki for making me look like the best gift giver 😊😊

I hired Mr. Ralph Esposito of Esposito Garden Center on September 20th, 2023 to build a very large retaining wall and install proper drainage in my backyard, which is slanted on a hill and some of it around a pool. My existing wooden wall had collapsed after an especially strong storm. I hired Esposito because of its reputation as a trusted company and the detailed plan that Ralph Esposito designed for the project. Because of its magnitude, it was very expensive. I paid Esposito over $60K and my contractor to install a gutter in my neighbor’s yard to help with drainage. Esposito worked on building the wall until late December 2023. At the beginning of 2024, after another serious storm, I was back where I began, with a dark dirty pool and unsolved drainage problems.

I hired a construction attorney to help mediate. I tried so many times to reach Ralph, who had been so gracious during the project, so large and complex that Esposito’s CEO Ms. Mary Kelly visited the site as it was being built. All that good vibe and will went away and my repeated requests for true completion of the job as per contract were met with band aid shotty work that not only structurally but also as far as optics left much to be desired from what one would expect a company like Esposito to submit as their final product. I wrote many emails, left messages in Ralph and his assistant’s mailboxes, and with my best and hopeful attitude asked for the project to be completed well as per contract repeatedly via my attorney, who managed to have only one call with Ralph in the months he spent mediating with his assistant. In July of 2024, my attorney finally submitted a formal Notice of Breach of Contract that gave Esposito one month to complete the work and submit all relevant materials to the project. My attorney and I never received even an acknowledgement of the formal Notice and the deadline passed without any action on Esposito’s part. They didn’t even have the courtesy of responding to my attorney, who clearly explained that I did not want to go to court but for them to complete the work promised in the contract. Ralph’s assistant was left with this job, at least indirectly acknowledging to my attorney that there were legitimate problems with the job that needed to be addressed. Cutting corners became their way of fixing them, and I eventually hired my contractor to complete the Esposito job to the tune of 20K. The final numbers for this project, including contractor and attorney fees, are dizzying.

There is no way that I could have done more to bridge the communication gap myself. Esposito ignored both me and my attorney, showing up twice for half an hour to not fix the problems mentioned in my attorney’s many communications. The workers sent to my property (I was home both times) did not have a clue about what they were doing or about the project as a whole. They were bandage workers sent to show that they were doing something, even though nothing to address requests for proper completion in our many communications. My attorney’s formal Notice of Breach of Contract was simply brushed aside and not taken seriously.

What I wanted from Esposito was good communication and results, none of which I got even after hiring an attorney to mediate. I am publishing this review online and on the Better Business Bureau site so that potential future customers know about my terrible experience when considering hiring Esposito for drainage work in their properties. Negative reviews like this one call for the respective business to respond and attempt to minimize the stain on their reputation. That ship has sailed. There is nothing Esposito can say to me now after more than a year of good will attempts to communicate and resolve an issue that only required good will and professionalism on their part. Reputations are maintained by proof of respect for customers, good works, and genuine attempts to respond to customer needs and grievances. A massive project like the one I embarked with Esposito deserved at least that much.

Great quality and quantity of garden needs to satisfy! I went at Christmas to purchase live greenery for our church in Georgia. Located everything, thanks to helpful staff.
If you enjoy gardening, you'll be amazed at the variety of plants and interior decor.
Fun shopping!
