| - This place has been here for a loooooong time. It is also only 2-1/2 miles from my house, how nice is that? The best nursery in the valley located only a few minutes away. But, I have driven all over the valley to nurseries and also have ordered trees and plants online. Anyway, it's the customer service here not-to-mention the vast property full of all KINDS of trees and plants that attracts me. You walk in, someone is standing there. They will walk the entire property with you if you so desire and they will describe anything you are interested in. If you have a specific type of need to fill - shrubbery; shade tree; whatever, they will take you to whatever they have available.
I went in there last week looking for a ground covering plant that I had bought at a nursery going out of business. I didn't know the name of it, the guy offered suggestions but, walking 40 feet into the place I saw a whole stand full of them sitting there. Yes, I was elated to find them that easily (neighborhood cats had trampled a section of them and I wanted to replace them).
It's also Christmastime and they have a HUGE variety of Christmas trees! If you have a 20 foot tall ceiling in your home, you will find a tree here that is absolutely beautiful that will take advantage of that space! Their cheapest price is $29 - which is nice for a tree that is sitting in a stand with water versus all those other big box places that have them all clumped together, NOT sitting in water, death defined.
Oh, and their delivery fee is $50. I was told that is wherever, though I suppose that rate might go up for a longer distance, I don't really know. I've been to the other nurseries, alot of them, even the obscure ones that are not that well known. Moon Valley has nothing on Whitfill's besides they do the planting. Their selection is nothing like Whitfill's IMO. If you are a plant/tree enthusiast, you have to at least try coming to this place once to see what they have to offer.
