THE BEST OF THE BEST OF THE BEST! Digging Dog Nursery in…read moreAlbion, California is simply the best of the best for mail-order plants, not only the usual variety one hopes to find but also hard-to-find perennials, tropicals, and other assortments. Their service is excellent; they respond to enquiries quickly and politely, and provide full answers to your questions. They are happy to combine or add-on to orders, and will acknowledge same via email; they will also hold shipments if you prefer a later date (always helpful for Zone 5b/6a). Again, their customer service is excellent; they are responsive, helpful, and extremely courteous in their emails. Now, about the plants: THESE ARE THE BEST MAIL-ORDER PLANTS I'VE EVER RECEIVED! I often order plants for clients throughout the year; each shipment from Digging Dog Nursery is carefully, securely, and safely packaged. Yes, the shipping/handling costs are high, but as I've noted, they are shipping from Albion, California to Lake County, Illinois and nothing is as cost-effective as it used to be. Each of my clients' orders have arrived in beautiful, fresh, green condition; the plants are healthy, and ready to go in the ground. My clients have commented numerous times upon both the quality of the plants and the quality of the packing; they were, are, and remain absolutely positively impressed in all aspects! I am happy to recommend Digging Dog Nursery in Albion, California for all your mail-order plant needs. THE BEST OF THE BEST OF THE BEST!

Having been a frequent visitor and part-time resident of Lucerne since the late 60's, I've seen a…read morelot of changes over the years. When I was really young, staying with my grandparents, the only options for groceries up here were Lakeview Market or Nice Market, or if you wanted to drive to Lakeport you could go to Bruno's. Well as time has passed much has changed. Mar-Val Sentry Market opened a couple decades ago, I guess, making it much easier to get a good selection of groceries on this side of the lake. Now if you want to make the drive to Lakeport you can visit Safeway. My how things have changed! Back to Sentry... selection is good, staff are friendly, store is clean, and most importantly the location is convenient for those staying in Glenhaven, Lucerne, Nice, and Upper Lake. Prices are a bit on the high side, but the convenience makes it worth the extra cost! I'm sure when I'm up at the Lake, I'll be shopping at Sentry, just as I have this trip and many before.

Excellent local garden center. I do native plant landscaping as a side business and have a degree…read morein plant and soil science, so I like to think I know what makes a good garden center. This particular location has a terrific selection of most types of plants. Lots of edible stuff like veggie starts and fruiting bushes and trees. The majority of the available plants are mix of Mediterranean and CA native landscaping plants with a handful of the standard shrubs/trees you'll find at every nursery in the U.S. like crepe myrtles and ornamental conifers. Also tons of herbaceous flowering perennials ranging from 4" pots up to 5 gallons. Also, a great house plant selection! I also believe this spot deserves some serious credit for their selection of native plants. One of the only spots in California you can readily purchase 4" starts of native annuals as well as cryptic and rare perennials. Just a couple days ago, I saw they were selling tomcat clover! That is just too cool. I also just bought a ground cover cultivar o CA buckwheat I've never even heard of. They clearly have someone in their procurement department who knows a good deal about natives. In terms of dry goods, they have a wide variety of pottery as well as all your standard garden center goods such as fertilizers, pest control, irrigation equipment, and general gardening supplies. What really tickles me is their bulk seeds. They have a full hallway with containers on either side with scoopers where you can buy any Lb amount of these seeds. They have tons of landscaping and pasture grass seed as well as some neat cover crop and cover crop mixes. My only complaint about this section is that not all labels have the scientific names. Some do, which is great since you know exactly the species that is being sold. However, one of the erosion control mix listed an annual "California festuca" and a perennial "California festuca". Unsure what species are being sold or if they are actually CA natives. Ultimately not a big deal and I'm sure the staff would be happy to get me the details. BUT if I made the labels...I may include the scientific name ;) All in all, this store and its other locations are a shining light in a dim world of big box stores selling garbage. You truly can find whatever you need for your projects here. I aways stop in when I'm in the area and buy a handful of things. I'll be a customer for as long as they are around!
