Why have I been wasting my time at Home Depot and Lowe's? I assumed local nurseries would be a lot more expensive but finally went to Shoal Creek after I couldn't find any decent plants for Austin's climate at the big box stores. They had every plant I was looking for that does well in Austin. And Most of their 4 inch plants are only three dollars which is an absolute steel and makes refreshing my flower bed after the winter freeze very affordable.

After the freeze, I found myself spending MANY days (and of course a ton of money) at Shoal Creek in order to get my garden back in shape. They had a lot of really unique plants and trees in early spring, mostly at fair prices (given the size). I was able to secure some pretty mature Japanese maples (rarer varieties as well) and routinely checked in Wed-Fri to see what came off the truck.
That said, every visit to Shoal Creek Nursery is different. On some days, there's a wonderful selection and customer service is fine (note: it's never been 'great' for me personally). On others, everything seems like a chore. If you plan your visit on specific days and times, though, both lines to the parking lot and at checkout are minimal. Friday morning from open until 11 is your best shot for a good selection (both for plants and parking).
The last several visits were standouts, but not in a good way. Customer service was actually really poor. At best, they ignored you; at worst, they sighed when you approached them with a question or listlessly pointed you in the general direction of a plant/tree when asked. Even spending money at checkout felt like I was imposing on them. Lastly, if you prefer (or require) that retail employees wear masks - you might want to avoid this place.
Like many retail businesses, there are clearly employees who are knowledgeable and enjoy working there and those who simply treat it as a job. Shoal Creek is no longer my go-to nursery, but it's completely serviceable if I'm in the area and know what I'm looking for.
