There are many, MANY other nurseries in the area with friendly knowledgeable staff and better pricing. I cannot stress enough. Avoid this place at all costs!!! I wanted a shrub for a specific area. Went to them with my very specific needs... shade, soil condition etc. They sold me something, and when I got home, I couldn't put it in right away, because it rained every day for the next several days. Then I did some homework before planting it, to make sure I was doing everything as best I could. I found out that it was actually NOT a shade plant, but required FULL SUN. So I loaded it back in the van and went back up there. They said that they don't take returns. I complained to the owner. I told him who had helped me, and I told him that he had sold me something for full sun, when I told him it was practically full shade. I had a whole conversation with the kid about how hard it is to find something for this particular site with all the shade. I told him that the person helping me had been very nice, but that he maybe needed a bit more training, because he sold me the wrong plant. Even though I had stressed how nice and personable the person was who helped me... He got offended, because apparently it was his son who sold it to me. He grabbed the plant out of my truck, then he started screaming, literally screaming at me, because he said I had neglected the plant and not watered it. I told him it was sitting out in a nice, cool, shady spot, and it had rained every single day since I had purchased it, and that I had soaked it thoroughly on the one day that it had only rained lightly. It had only been a week. So he yanks it out of my truck, and he THROWS it while he's YELLING and SCREAMING the whole time. I told him that he needed some anger management or some counseling, and he started yelling at me again and calling me names and telling me that I was the one who needed help! I'm not kidding when I say that I was a little scared for the next several weeks because this guy had my name and credit card info and was going to come to my house and do something to me or my property. I honestly had my husband set up a webcam and motion sensor lights. I can't believe how bad this guy lost it!

We often stop into Milford Gardens for our planting needs, even though there are other greenhouses and nurseries that are closer to our house. This place just has such a wide selection! My husband will pick up plants and small trees for certain jobs in Spring and Summer, and I like to grab some random colored sedum or hostas to fill my gardens throughout the season. Everything we've purchased from here has thrived and always ends up looking beautiful! The helpful staff is always there to greet you, as they can usually be found watering trees and plants while tinkering around the property. In addition to the greenery, they have an extensive collection of statuary, fountains, gazing balls, wind chimes, and memorial stones inside the shop. Need a giant Buddha? They've got one. Need a stone for your pet's grave? They've got a bunch. Need a bird feeder? There are plenty to choose from! Big or small, for all your planting and gardening needs, you're sure to find it at Milford Gardens!

That part didn't go as well as it should have, the weather turned up the heat, and for as much as I watered: still the plants were charred by the string of super sunny, hot days. Left with no choice other than to make another purchase-this time I was smart enough to ask Auburn Oaks to add delivery and install of the plants to my bill. WHAT a FABULOUS choice!! The plants were delivered when I was told to expect them; and Dominic was superb. THANK YOU Auburn Oaks!! See you next time;)

Coming here's a pleasure because their not a huge facility like Bordine's or Lowe's. Parking's tight but doable you just have to be careful when backing out since it's literally on Auburn Road, which is super busy and the speed limit's 50 MPH. They have a great selection of items to choose from, and prices are competitive and fair. What keeps me coming back is the staff. Their super friendly and are extremely knowledgeable. They also have regular sales and keep up with seasonal stuff like pumpkins, Christmas décor and other stuff as well. They also stand behind their products so if you buy a tree or plant, I think they will credit you if it does die. Don't quote me on that, but these guys really do stand behind what their selling. Overall a fabulous little nursery in a world of big box stores, we love coming here for just about anything!

When we heard it was sadly closing down at the end of the year, we made a special trip just to stop in here. It's a beautiful store with more than just gardening supplies.

And I especially love how despite Luis the store cat passing away over 10 years ago, you can still find lots of references to him around the store. Really wish there was a way to save this place. :(

No matter the time of year I love visiting Downtown Home & Garden. My previous review stated, "I love any store where I can get tulip bulbs, a new bird house, a winter hat shaped like a Christmas tree, a new cookie sheet and a loaf of Zingerman's bread" and all that still rings true. But these days I also add national parks merch, gear for my dogs, holiday decor, kitchen gadgets and cookbooks and, perhaps most exciting for a Polish broad like myself, a variety of Polish pottery pieces. In the spring and summer months I can be found perusing peony bulbs for my garden, hummingbird feeders, bird seed and squirrel proof bird feeders, planters, plants/starters for my veggie garden, pest control and fertilizers, plus a variety of lawn decor and sculpture pieces, etc. Some things can be kind of pricey but you truly get what you pay for. Even after years out in the elements everything I've bought for my yard here is still in amazing condition, my plants from here always yield the most delicious fruits and veggies, and the little birdies are so happy with the snacks we provide them from their bins.
