    Another great experience with Catherine and the Griggs Nursery. Went above and beyond in order to pull off a landscape redo before Easter weekend. We had them come back to finish off a couple of other areas we decided to add in. Thank you again for being an expert in your field and customer service.

    Excellent nursery in the Carmel Valley. Visited this nursery with my wife and spent several hours wandering their grounds. It's a huge nursery with vegetables, fruit trees, California native plants, succulents, annuals, perennials, evergreen shrubs, and more. They had a large variety of pots and prices seemed fair. We're in the midst of planting a front yard garden and plan to get plants delivered from Griggs shortly.

    I would have never known of this place if it wasn't for a gift certificate. While the lady isn't fascinated with taking care of the various bits of nature alive in our home, I am actually quite obsessive about it. I love every thing to do with plants and trees and sometimes wish I had the time to just bonsai *EVERYTHING* and make a miniature Eden to inspire others about the beauty of creation. /pause & refocus Talking to a few people working here, the plants in the nursery will change according to the seasons. I'm currently interested in setting up different fruit trees in my backyard as well as some GARGANTUAN pines (buy small, smile as it grows big enough to build an ark) and the employees were extremely helpful in every manner. Considering to redo your backyard with new plants and young trees? You're in LUCK...Griggs is definitely the right destination. Yelp 100: 71/100

    Why have a cafe in a garden centre ?... Back in the UK there's a garden centre called 'Hayes' in the Lake District (north of England). It's quite spectacular but used to bemuse me for this exact reason. why in the heck would anyone think a garden centre was a destination location ! Fast forward many years and we stumble on Griggs in Carmel valley on a sunny day and I could easily see the opportunity to open a little tea room there and wouldn't be surprised if they charged an entry fee just to soak in the spectacle. Suffice to say it was a vibrant and exciting and tingled the senses. It seems silly to recommend a trip to a garden centre but I'd bet this is one will lower the blood pressure, relax those aches and pains in your shoulders and make you appreciate all that is fine with Mother Nature..OK, mock me now but if you get down to Carmel, take the 5 minute drive out into the valley and see it soon !

    Definitely better prices than the nurseries in Carmel Valley. This location is fairly small, so it…read moremay not have everything you are looking for, but it's worth giving them a call or stopping by to check. Note that they also grow the plants in their own nursery so it's not a matter of checking San Marcos growers or Monrovia to see if they can special order for you. Great for bulk delivery of soil, mulch, etc., and all the soil and compost I've gotten from them (probably 20+ cubic yards now) has been nice and clean, no weed seeds. Service can be a little hit or miss - most times it's great, but a couple of times I've had a guy at the desk who gave such minimal answers to my stock questions that I ended up coming back another time to ask someone else.

    Service? Fabulous! I was looking around inside the store at 3 different types of orchid food. I was…read moreconfused about the difference. Before I could turn around and look for help, I heard a voice behind me asking if I needed help! I asked my question, and then gave Jasmine my shopping list. She proceeded to load up a cart for me. She demonstrated good knowledge. Jasmine loaded up all of my purchases into my car cheerfully, carefully and efficiently. Selection? It was the week before Christmas. At that time of year, nurseries are reduced in inventory and are monochromatic in green. They didn't have any buddleia or lavatera, but that's to be expected! I bought 6 5-gallon purple Lantana at $28.99 each. They were healthy and robust plants. I'll be able to split each plant, and have double the effect! Value? Folks, this ain't Lowe's or Home Depot (or as I like to say The Despot). You are not going to get low, low prices. OTOH, you are going to get super healthy, quality plants. I was very pleased with my lantana purchase. I enjoyed my shopping experience. The nursery is clean and beautiful. I'll be back!
