When on a recent hunt for succulents for a garden project, Dear Hubby thought that I meant Sterling…read moreGardens, when I was heading for Elegant Garden instead. After we went to the latter with only partial success, DH suggested going to Sterling. He'd been there before, while I had only wanted to visit but had never stopped in. It's beautifully laid out. Though it's a nursery, selling all manner of trees and other plants, it's arranged to feel like you're visiting a designed garden. Once we drove into the heart of the property I was somewhat confused on where to stop and park. DH remarked that they had done some major rearranging since he'd last been there, so he wasn't sure where to direct me to go. We found a spot that wasn't blocking any of their driveways, then got out to take a look around. We weren't seeing any succulents, nor any employees to ask. I was soaking up the beautiful surroundings when one of the staff offered to help. He said that they don't sell smaller succulents, only one and five gallon pots. That's not going to work for us at this stage, so we thanked him and moved on to another stop. I would plan to return when looking for larger landscaping needs.

We hired Sterling Gardens Nursery for our re-landscaping project and could not be more happy with…read morethe final results. They did everything from a paver-stone patio, new irrigation and sod, removing and re-locating existing trees and plants, adding lights, and even retrofitting and setting up an old fountain of ours that had been used as a planter. I can't say enough about Andres and his crew, they were hard working, professional and had great ideas for improving our design. Lastly, Laurie came in and helped with the grand design of our planting scheme. With her knowledge of plants, she made the most of our existing plants and then added her touch with additional planting that turned our backyard into a wonderland. We love our new backyard and are so happy we chose Sterling Gardens Nursery to do the job.

Kaitlyn helped me pick out these…read morebeautiful, colorful flower six-packs for my garden, and was very friendly and patient while helping me decide which ones would look best together. The plants were healthy, vibrant, and reasonably priced. I can't wait to get them planted. The team also helped carry everything out to my car and asked whether I needed plastic to protect the trunk from the dirt since I didn't have a truck. I would definitely recommend Elegant Gardens Nursery to anyone looking for a local plant nursery or garden center in Moorpark, Simi Valley, Thousand Oaks, or the Ventura County area. If you prefer supporting local businesses and appreciate a great selection and welcoming atmosphere, you should check it out. I know I'll definitely be back!

Most homes around Trancas and Broad beach area have weekly gardeners, so very few residents even get their hands dirty planting anything. It is such a delight to be able to go around the nursery and find little treasures, pots, succulents or God forbid, a California native plant. Bring your young kids as they'd love the Monarch butterflies roaming around and the resident cat lounging in the sun. The nursery is open Tuesday and Friday only, but if they would get more collective support they could do a lot more. These are honest hard working people and it brings me great joy to benefit them in any way.

Not sure what's going on at this place but they hardly ever seem to be open even during normal…read morebusiness hours

We called Sunday and asked if they had fruit trees as we have heard they are in short supply this season due to COVID-19. Once we arrived we met the person working and he asked we we needed and we stated we were looking for fruit trees. He showed us each area of where the oranges, Limes, and Avocados were at. He helped some people check out and came back to us. We asked questions and he was super nice in letting us know the answers. We had no intention of buying today but we saw mature trees and they were all reasonable in price. So we bought two and still happy with our purchase. Next is putting them in and getting ready for some fruit. We wanted a Mexican lime tree but he didn't have any nice ones but said call once a month and see when he will have them in. If your looking for fruit trees they have them and won't cost an arm and a leg.
