    Swansons has a nice variety of indoor plants in a few different sizes too! I was impressed with their selection but it was a bit pricey for plants that are harder to find. There was a nice selection of air plants too!

    The selection and staff were beyond outstanding. I think the staff may have been able to tell I was new to plants because three of them offered me help. Each one of them taught me something new, providing me with helpful information on how to care for my plant (amount of sunlight, watering, fertilizer, etc). Steve even gave me a little bit of extra dirt for my tree to fill up the pot nicely. Overall, great shopping experience, knowledgeable staff and beautiful plants.

    Holiday shopping early. So fun to watch the kids enjoying the train. Good selection of smaller gift items and Christmas decor/ornaments.

    Beautiful site with lots of different plants, indoors and out. Staff helpful but not clingy. I didn't eat there, but they have a little cafe with coffee, etc. Prices are on the high side.

    I want to love this place but after I got a couple vegetable starts from there in June, my balcony became infested with spider mites, mealy bugs, AND aphids.

    The jalapeno plant was infested with spider mites. The succulent I've had for 5 years without incident was between the tomato plant and jalapeno plant, and now has so many mealy bugs I'm just throwing it away. And the nasturtium was infested with aphids.

    At this point I'm done buying new plants, it doesn't matter where I get them, they always seem to have pests.

    I understand stores can't control their suppliers, but overall it sucks to have to throw away not only the plants I got from Swanson's, but also my much older plants that were nearby.

    Nice spot to go - especially during Christmas time. Wide variety of plants, reasonable pricing and also other misc items you can purchase as well. There's also an eating area/cafe inside.

    Swanson’s Nursery has a wonderful selection of indoor/outdoor seasonal and year round gardening variety including tools and gardening decor. Everything always looks lush and healthy.

    They also have a knowledgable staff who can answer all your gardening questions. Plus they just LOVE their customers four-legged companions who come to visit their establishment as well. Over the many years our cats are always pampurred whenever we visit their beautiful massive koi pond beside their charming cafe with a decent selection of good eats and novelty gift shop to delight anyone who loves unique gifts.

    Impressive nursery with a world of healthy plants. We haven’t found anywhere else like this in the area and have been happy with our purchases from here.

    A great nursery in Seattle. Helpful staff and a huge selection of both outdoor and indoor plants! I have come in here multiple times with questions and they are always able to track someone down to help me. I also love sitting in the cafe next to the koi ponds and just relaxing

    Set up direct deposit here because it’s just easier that way. Trust me I find this on kidfriendlyseattle.com

    Love coming here, grabbing a coffee, adding to the plant collection, and just enjoying life.

    This place is huge and though you might end up paying more for plants here than you would at a place like Home Depot, you can’t beat the experience and the level of service.

    Big shout out to Elizabeth. She was the only person to ask us if we needed help and when we asked questions she was a great resource. Please give her a raise!

    It’s fun to look around at the exotic plants. They have such an interesting wide variety of plants. Where else can you get a yuzu tree?

    Got to watch the koi feeding time, as seen in the video.

    Fun coming here during the holidays. Reindeer and a Grinch village train set make it special.
    Gift shops and Cafe are great. The cafe seating is among lush tropical plants and a koi pond.
    Large selection of planters and beautiful plants available year round.

    Swanson's blew me away. I'm just starting my foray into flora and after shopping around other locations I'm happy to have ended my search here. I went with a roommate on a beautiful Sunday afternoon and spent three hours browsing and enjoying the variety of plants. This was as much a walk in a beautiful park as it was a shopping trip. The staff was very friendly and helpful, but what really struck me was the kindness and gentleness of other customers. We were approached several times to ask about plants we'd found on our cart, people were generally conscious of others who were shopping, not blocking pathways, being patient waiting for help, and making friendly conversation. I could say so many good things about the facility itself but it speaks a lot louder to me that they have cultivated (heh) such a lovely customer base. Thanks for the Lemon Tree!

    So much to explore and see here! The selection of indoor and outdoor plants, pots, accessories, etc. is unmatched. Dogs are welcome to browse too, and don’t forget to check out the indoor koi pond located next to the barista counter!

    Fun, beautiful gardening experience. The staff is knowledgeable and friendly. They have a wide variety of plants and tools. Plus they are very kid and family friendly. I highly recommend coming to Swanson's over Home Depot or other box stores.

    I was at Swansons this evening with my children and as we were browsing the plants I had not one, not two, but THREE separate female nursery workers make incredibly rude comments to my face about having twin infants and a toddler. Here’s one example: “Oh god. It’s like a school bus” -whilst making a disgusted face. It’s hard enough being a parent, I do not need your obtuse, white, middle-aged remarks. I will shop elsewhere.

    Not the best prices but yes on the best selection for plants for the garden. But that’s not why I live Swanson’s. It’s their Christmas display with rain deer, photo ops, and a train display on a different theme each year- with characters from past years hiding here and there.

    Amazing place! Huge array of plants and pots for sale, amazing coffee, and just overall good chill vibes. Lots of fun dinosaurs around the place and koi by the cafe!

    Disneyland of plant stores, they have any and everything you could ever want, in any verity. Lovely cafe & coffee shop inside with sitting room and a koi pond. The staff are always helpful and knowledgeable. (+ Thanks for helping direct traffic in the parking lot!)
