Pretty dissapointed with my visit here. I get it...all nurseries have the "winter blues" right now....but the selection during my visit, was pretty poor.
I didn't browse through the trees and larger plants...I was there to look for anything tropical and maybe some succulents.
The succulents I did find outside were in awful shape. A lot of them falling apart and a very small, unimpressive selection. I can find better at my local Home Depot.
Went inside the building to check out the smaller potted plants in there. Was really dissapointed to see bone dry prayer plants hanging from the shelf. They all looked pretty sad. I would think a nursery would pay special attention to the humidity loving plants and make sure they get the moisture they need to thrive...I mean..we ARE in the desert.
Anyways, even though the selection wasn't the greatest and most of the plants I saw were in rough shape..I decided to get three because I'm a sucker for plants and can't say no.
Customer service was pretty non existent/non friendly (even though there were five very serious looking employees randomly about).
One of the plants I got is already dead. It was browning on the edges when I got it. I thought I could save it, but I think it had been abused for too long.
The other two are still around but my husband makes fun of their condition all the time. He calls them the sad plants. They're getting better with care, but it's an extremely slow process.
Maybe this place will be better in the spring when fresh shipments arrive and everything is ready to grow again. But then again, WalMart will be too.
Mist your poor prayer plants!
