Home Services reviews in Hawthorne, New York

Trying to get help here requires way too much effort. Came in about 45 minutes after opening on a Friday, not too many customers there yet, and walked around for a solid 20 minutes trying to find someone to help. Asked an older gentleman who was unpacking flowers to put on display and he made a half assed attempt to walk me through some shrubbery options, but was literally just pointing to different directions in the 10+ acre yard where I can find some stuff to check out. Their bread and butter must be commercial clients.

Very nice collection. Things are well labeled and explained (season, water need, when flowering stops). Also reasonable prices.

One of the bigger nurseries opened up to the public in lower Westchester. Called to get more info on their native plant sale and Janet was not the bit friendliest. Obviously I am not expecting mature 5-6 ft plants when I buy them. Attitude makes me want to cross the bridge to other places in Rockland (Red Hill)

Does it get mobbed during certain times of year? Yes. Are some of the seasonal employees less knowledgeable than others? Yes. The prices are competitive but this is not a big box store. It’s the largest nursery open to the public in the area, some of the reviewers are not realistic with their one star reviews. I’ve struggled to get attentive service at large nurseries and small ones. I visit other nurseries locally and in Connecticut and Rosedale has the most comprehensive selection year round. They have a number of very knowledgeable staff, you just have to be patient and learn who to ask

Looking for small plants for terrarium and this place have a variety of small and large plants for both indoor and outdoor. Lots of planting supplies with decent price. Will be going there again soon. Great place for Bonsai lovers! Very helpful with the answer and give advice for planting!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I had a fantastic experience at Rosedale Garden Center, all thanks to Enrique! He was incredibly knowledgeable and took the time to patiently answer all of my questions. Whether it was about plant care, soil types, or the best options for my space, he had great advice and never made me feel rushed. The store itself is excellent—well-stocked, beautifully organized, and full of healthy plants. Enrique’s expertise and friendly attitude made the whole visit a pleasure. Highly recommend!

Huge selection of beautiful flowers, plants, bushes and trees. Today, July 20, 2024, purchased a beautiful phlox Jeana plant. Was looking for this particular plant after seeing how it attracted many butterflies at a botanical garden.

Huuuge variety of gorgeous plants, all way better quality than we usually see at Home depot and whatnot. We only had a small potted plant purchase for our deck, and the man helping us was still so attentive. Super knowledgeable and I just wish I had a big enough yard to buy some of their trees. Will definitely return.

Frequent customer since 2022. Strengths are the impressive plant collection - shade-loving and sun-tolerant, shrubs, trees and annuals. Best access from the northbound sawmill River Parkway with a private entrance just north of the Hawthorne interchange. Slow down when you see the high tension powerlines and put your right blinker on to exit. there are no road signs. Rosedale maintains a true landscaping department which can undertake planting and garden management projects.
The prices can be high and access to the garden centre can be difficult on weekends at the beginning of planting seasons for instance in May.

This is a great service that keeps my property and all my plans in great condition and looking the best they can be very appreciative of their work

A large beech tree, central to my Landscaping, suffers from the current beech leaf virus. For about four years, Almstead has treated the tree four times per year, and it is still doing well. It would be a disaster for you to lose that tree, and I much appreciate the care provided by Almstead

My husband and I decided to focus on our lawn this year. Our home is beautiful but our lawn never quite kept up! Since we’ve had Olmstead it now looks wonderful - green & weed free!! We are quite happy with their service! They call the day before they plan their visit, too. Friendly service folks, too. A win win!!

We recently worked with Almstead to remove two large trees that were being killed by bugs. The team was very professional, careful to preserve the landscaping around the trees, and mindful of our property. They also trimmed several trees that now look so much better! After that, we had Almstead come back to treat our Hemlocks for infestation. The two technicians that came out were very friendly and knowledgeable about the treatment and trees on the property and were very patient with my many questions. We also use Almstead for an ongoing lawn program.

I have to be honest and say that it took the company a long time to get back to me.
I did, however, continue to follow up with them because they came highly recommended from our neighbors across the street. I've seen the job they'd done at my neighbors and was pleased.

Once we agreed on a date, they did come on time, they finished the job perfectly and expeditiously.
They cut down a few dead branches of 4 London Planes, and took down an entire Maple, cleaned up and left the place spotless.

Had the Almstead team take down a huge ash tree and plant a new magnolia during the same visit. Both were down professionally and in a timely manner. Left the property in excellent shape. Can be counted on to get the job done!

Carlos, Silvestre and Martin arrived this morning to clean up the mess from a huge tree section that broke off. The rest of the 80 foot pine was destroyed in the storm. They proceeded in a workmanlike/professional manner to take down the pine, clean up the downed tree section and remove other storm damage. They left the property in immaculate condition. An absolutely first-class fabulous job.

I had three huge trees removed today from my yard in what I thought would be a difficult job, between other trees, near a fence, surrounded by bushes I had recently planted. Matt, Jose, Luis and Sylvester did an amazing job! Everything went smoothly and as planned, better than I could have imagined! I have never seen anything like it! They are so skilled! I HIGHLY recommend their service!

"I’ve worked with several companies over the years, and Almstead has been the best by far! My Arborist, Matt, along with Kevin, Efren, and Javier, have all done a wonderful job keeping my lawn and shrubs healthy and thriving. I highly recommend them!"

Oh yes love too you all

Great attention to detail and excellent landscape maintenance. Very responsive and always willing to go the extra mile. They have completed several difficult projects for me and I recommend them for all your outdoor projects.

I highly recommend Carmine and his team for landscaping. Our yard was in desperate need of a good spring cleaning and he delivered! He even designed us new flower beds and I can't wait to see how they come out. He's very friendly and prices are fair. I have already recommended him to some of my family members!
