All reviews for Shoal Creek Nursery

Great prices and selection!

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.

I was lucky enough to get my hands on a moon orchid, except I've never worked with orchid except the ice cube ones.
The ladies at Shoal Creek held my hand and walked me through the care.
Thank you for being so thoughtful & responsive

Great nursery with knowledgeable people. If they don’t have what you are looking for they can usually tell you when they should receive a restock. Prices are higher than big box stores but quality of plants is much better.

The staff helped me right away. They even unloaded the trees I wanted from a supply truck and loaded them into my car for me. The prices are really good too, better than Lowe's etc.

We needed a selection to choose from for our cockatiel enclosure and we found it! Department style stores have nothing on this place when it comes to selection and price! Amazing!

Wonderful place!! We stocked up on some plants. Even grabbed 3 little tomato plants they had out front - for free 😄 Very nice selection. Extremely helpful employees. Reasonable prices. And we're going back later for some more!

I had a really nice visit here today. Great selection of perennials for only $2.49… that is pre Covid prices. I really appreciate that. I was able to pick up a whole flat of lovely plants for a good price. Extensive selection of Botanical Interests seeds. Botanical Interests is cool but we beelined past them for the small Seed Savers Exchange section. Thank you for carrying this brand and supporting the work they do. Also, enjoyed our talk with the chatty friendly old kitty.

I love this place, it’s a little gem. There are a ton of beautiful plants to pick from, and the staff is very helpful kind. Prices are reasonable.

Wonderful "old school" Austin folks working here. They were very helpful to us in picking out plants for our home

Shoal Creek nursery was the first nursery I ever visited when I became interested in gardening and I rarely go elsewhere. The quality of their starts is consistently perfect, the selection changes frequently and they nearly always have something interesting I’ve never grown before. plant prices are downright reasonable. hardware like tools and pots are on the pricier side but I doubt you’d find the exact same products elsewhere for less. I have been a loyal customer since I first started gardening about a decade ago and have never once left empty handed or disappointed.

Wow! I can’t believe I didn’t know about this place sooner. I’ve been to just about every nursery and plant shop in Austin, and this place stands out. The selection is beautifully curated, with a great variety of healthy plants, and the prices are refreshingly fair. Definitely a hidden gem for plant lovers

I always find the plants I’m looking for here, like rue herbs for Swallowtail butterflies. The loquat tree my son gave me is excellent for year round privacy for homes that are close, with the benefit of sweet fruit for the kids in spring. All the staff here are knowledgeable about plants, including what grows well in Texas.

Love this place so much it's my favorite Nursery! unfortunately I can't go there and buy just a bag of soil I always leave with three new plants at least! Picture was taken on my balcony of plants I have purchased from Shoal Creek

We had a great day at the nursery, picking our fall plants and supply it has everything we needed. Definitely go back again.

One of the best nurseries in Austin. They've got a great selection of sproutlings, baby plants, and more mature ones. I love love love their herb collection. If you ever need anything, the staff is always happy to help -- there are no dumb questions and you feel their love of gardening when you talk to them.

I don't remember what I ate last night but I DO remember a kind and friendly person named "Lilly" who helped me pick the perfect bathroom plant for my apartment and a pot to go with it also. She even drilled holes in it for me and potted it! The store is very clean, lots of selections, and is air-conditioned (inside). I'd return there with my mom one day. After a few other nursery visits, this is my favorite in Austin. Thanks!

Such a beautiful selection of plants and flowers. Plants are lively, they have a wide selection of succulents and bushes. They carry a lot of natural/ organic products. I could just walk around looking at things all day. I got a garden hot there that I get lots of complements on. They also have a reward program.

Love the native and drought tolerant plant selection here. Helpful sales people. Love the waterfall! It always makes me happy just to be there.

Shoal Creek sources their plant from reputable growers and I never had any plants die off from transplanting them into my garden. The staff is very friendly and always willing to help with any questions you may have

Excellent store! Very helpful and knowledgeable about plants. Great finds here, reasonably priced.
