The people are friendly and helpful, but did not hover. I was able to take my time choosing the right shade of "white". Boring, I know, but I was surprised by how many there are.

My project is done and I am very happy with the way the color turned out. Now that it's time for another painting project...

I bought paint there and lots of it. Seems I should be able to call to see if they can make me some more touch up paint of the same exact color. But if the only phone number they make available is one that will not provide you the option to talk with someone (and make it obvious), then they are essentially saying they don't care about your business.

It helped me get the things I needed and brought it out to me with the biggest smile and a firm handshake. I know because they're supposed to give us the best of customer service, but I believe this young man went on and beyond it made me so very happy.

Parking is limited and prices are high, but they are open on Sundays and they are much easier than dealing with Home Depot. If there's something that you need, and you don't want to purchase it on Amazon because you want to feel and see and measure it, this is a nice little shop. I don't come here often because of the prices and the parking, but it's nice to know that Ace in Studio City is there when I need it. They have really good staying power! They've been here for many years! They must be doing something right.

I quickly tried to cancel when I saw the shipping they added, but they said it was too late (I called within minutes). It took FOUR business days to arrive. Farrow & Ball shipped me their samples from CANADA in less time and did not charge me a shipping fee. That is whose paint we shall be using! It was dreadfully sneaky for Portola to not disclose their $20.00 shipping and mandatory insurance fee BEFORE placing the online order. UPDATE: PORTOLA LIED in their response about disclosing the outrageous shipping cost! I would NEVER have paid such an outrageous sum to ship from So Cal to Nor Cal! And to MAKE ME pay MORE for THEIR REQUIRED insurance was added insult upon injury! Never again will I order from them, and I will make sure to warn others to avoid them like the plague. Shifty business.

A whole lot more. They also sell food, seeds, roots, soil, small, medium, large pots, different styles and colors of everything. Very durable and a tad expensive for my budget. Pots for your plants are so gorgeous. They do landscaping for people who own gardens (does not apply to me) and all the work the employees put in to those plants to make their customers happy and satisfied is a huge recognition. Employees are very knowledgeable, nice, and helpful. Also caring and understanding. A friend of mine had given me an indoor plant for my birthday last year and lasted me for a whole entire year and 3 months. It took the last breath and I went to them asking for help. It was a bit late. I am more of a flower girl than owning plants. I have had plants in my younger years. I ended up buying 2 new outdoor plants to put outside of my window/door. It looks very pretty. I have also purchased a Christmas tree from their lot twice. Established in 1889. That should say a lot about this lovely, beautiful garden/nursery. Big parking lot right in front of the nursery/shop, and 2 clean bathrooms. Thank you all.
