Landscaping reviews in Durham, North Carolina

I've always wanted a aloe Vera plant. I found one and it was so healthy and just pretty. The young lady who worked there showed me flower pots I could and also the potting soil. Great place to buy plants and their necessities.

I visited Durham Garden Center today and was incredibly put off when I asked the customer service associate a question and was met with a sarcastic, condescending, and rude reply. I simply pivoted on my heels, left the store, and vowed to never return again! A certain level of sarcasm may be appropriate when interacting with one's friends, however it is not appropriate in the workplace when interacting with a customer who is in your place of business to potentially purchase goods.

Just stopped in on lunch, what a wonderful selection of houseplants! Priced decent too! Staff very friendly. I will return!!

Fantastic selection of plants and shrubs indoors and out. Well curated and organized by shade requirement, type (perennials, annuals, and such), all suitable for landscaping or your garden. A store in front has loads of gifts, accessories and potted plants ready to stage at home.

Bailey assisted me and encouraged me so much on use and essentials in the beautiful plants I bought and even helping me with identification of plants in my own yard. This place is a great resource and I shall be returning often.

I want to like this place a bit more. Maybe ive just been here at off times of the year but I do love their aesthetic. Their entryway partial sun canopy is decorated nicely, and they had a drcent selection out back, but many of yhe plants looked pretty stressed (annuals/fruit/veg). Some plants can be a tad pricey.

Beautiful plants and great customer service!

This plant nursery and the staff are awesome! We walked in knowing very little about plants and walked out learning so much more. The prices were affordable and the service was great. We bought our 1st house plant and we will be back!

My wife and I love coming here! They have a huge selection of plants, whether you’re looking for indoor or outdoor. All of the staff are super knowledgeable and helpful. We were needing helping with pollenators and they pointed us in the right direction.

Sweet store, kind stuff. CHECK OUR THEIR AMAZING NATIVE PLANTS OUT BACK!!! Omg! I was so overwhelmed and pleased to see the ROWS of native plants! Get yourself a native pollinator and make all the bees and birds and butterflies in your yard happy this spring and summer. Thank you! (Also they have an entire tent of soil selections I still need to check out! Durham Garden Center is WAY MORE than a small shop with fancy houseplants!)

Oh my god, true horticulturists. More than willing to spend time to advise and consult. I was there an hour, and Russell answered all of my questions and made all perfect recommendations. I have a tree and plants that support bees and butterflies, are hardy, drought resistant, and all of the advice needed to care for them. This is is the best garden center I have ever been to!!

Excellent wide variety of well kept plants. It has the best local indoor plant selection that I have experienced thus far. Definitely helped step up my pothos collection. I can't wait to go back.

So I dropped the ball and almost forgot my anniversary and when I remembered I made it to the garden center as they were locking up. Ryan saw the urgency on my face I think and opened the door for me and when I told him it was my anniversary he helped me find a gorgeous azaleas tree to give to my love. Thank you soo much Ryan for SAVING MY BUTT!

The two employees offered no help and seemed bothered by simple questions. We needed some suggestions regarding plants for our new home but all we got was “the plants have tags”. Maybe they are a place for professionals who know what they need, but in any case, costumer service and courtesy were non existent.

I frequent this garden center and usually have a good experience, but today was the exception. For today's visit I purchased 2 beautiful pots. One which had a price affixed and the other that did not. I was after leaving, having been being preoccupied with my next errand while checking out, was dismayed to find that the cashier named Vanessa, who rang up my purchase didn't bother to find the actual price for the pot with no tag, but instead lazily simple charged me $57.00 twice rather then checking for the actual price of the second pot. Mind you, I'd overhead a brief chat between the cashier and another employee while continuing to look at options, which indicated the price should have been somewhere around $30 for the non tagged pot. To be charged nearly double that with no disclosure or mention is unacceptable and I will be returning the pots despite how much I love them as such practices are not consistent with how I wish to be treated when patronizing a business.

I love the place. So many unique flowers and decorative features for indoor and outdoor gardens. Very knowledgeable and helpful staff. This business has been around for years and I had forgotten that it was there ... decided to check out spring blooms and pots. The time was well spent because I've been back (2 weeks in a row and counting!). Looking forward to my next adventure in Durham Garden Center.

I come here often and buy plants to fill my garden bit by bit. The garden center carries such beautiful and interesting varieties of plants! I always want to take everything home with me but have to stop myself. The store is beautiful, and the prices are super reasonable. The staff is also friendly and helpful. Love the garden center!!

My "happy place"! Huge huge selection of indoor and outdoor plants. Their turnover of house plants is very quick, so there are always new options. At times I've been slightly disappointed in the selection of pottery with drainage holes, but in the past few months the selection has really grown. They are super responsive and helpful in person and on social media. They have performed Instagram seminars on various topics with their horticulturalist, which were so helpful! I hope they keep doing these. It's a great atmosphere!

This garden center was much like many garden centers EXCEPT for the people. The people there obviously love their plants and their customers. We just recently moved to the area and didn't know what to plant or when to plant to attract pollinators and birds. They showed us what the plants were, what they attracted and added in whether they were deer resistant.

They gave us extra information about every plant we considered. And they answered every question we asked.

We left feeling more confident with some extra knowledge. We will definitely go back because the people there were so awesome.

They have a good mix of perennials and annuals and native plants. They have nice planters and an inside shop with indoor plants and some seeds and gift items.

If you want some advice or just to pick out some plants, it's a great place to go.

Great shop- staff is always friendly and helpful. All of the indoor plants are marked with a paw print to indicate pet-safe! Very nice pots with better prices than big chain stores. Extensive outdoor landscaping plants and trees, too!

I love this place for houseplants! They have a great selection (better than the Raleigh farmers market) and more affordable prices than more "upscale" places (e.g. Zen Succulent)
