My wife and I decided to upgrade our back yard with new shrubs and border perennials…read more We found out about Lurvey's and met with Craig, one of the managers, to discuss our project. He was incredibly generous with his time and offered us great advice, even showing us around and pointing out recommended plants and shrubs. We drove back home and did more research and thinking. A week later we returned and met up with Craig again. He discussed our choices and then showed us where to find everything. Along the way he gave us even more ideas by letting us look at pictures of his own extraordinary landscape. He never pressured us to buy anything and even came back later to check on us. I would like to add that his colleagues were also very helpful and open to dialogue in response to our questions. This is the best experience we have had in the Chicago area purchasing plants; we also learned a lot about landscaping in the process. Thanks Craig! Tsui-yee & Craig Chicago

Conceptually, I love Lurvey. Knowledgeable staff; high quality products; great selection. We have…read morespent thousands of dollars at Lurvey over the last 10+ years. But... This spring we went to purchase a tree for our yard. Found what we wanted for $800. We would prefer that professionals plant this tree. All good until: Tree cost: $800. Delivery and planting: $1200. So an $800 tree costs $2000 to have planted. Are you kidding me? 150% service charge to plant. That's like buying a $1000 big screen tv from Abt or Best Buy and paying $2500 total to have it installed. No rational person would do this. By comparison, we have purchased trees from other local nurseries and their planting fees are typically 50% of tree cost. So an $800 tree would cost an additional $400 to plant. Total cost: $1200. Who in their right mind would pay 150% of the cost of the item to have it "installed?" Do better, Lurvey. This is madness.

I really enjoy this local establishment for plant needs! They have porch items (and even live…read moreanimals like turtles, fish, and birds) here, but I was mainly here for the plant nursery. It definitely feels extensive and organized with sections for soil, different climates/plant needs, and grade of plant. The indoor plants I've bought here are mostly doing great if a little neglected from my own care. We ended up planting some of the outdoor plants too early, but the quality was great overall. Given the late last frost date here, I would just wait to buy outdoor plants in the spring. The parking lot is extensive, and they have several community events as well as opportunities to host birthday parties for any age. Staff were really helpful and efficient at the register.

I stopped in @ Chalet Nursery for a brief look as spring is here. What I found is a very nice nursery w/an assortment of items needed to do spring planting, landscaping materials & an assortment of seeds, plants, planters, gardening tools & fertilizers.... Basically almost anything you need to start or enhance a garden. They also have an area on the north end where they have a glass enclosed area. Unfortunately I really didn't have a lot of time to shop as I was on my way to pick up my older sister but would like to come back sometime when I have a little more time to peruse the items in the store

We called Chalet, who has done all of our landscaping to trim back and remove some bushes. Cory…read morecame out with her crew Daniel and Alberto who did an excellent job. Then, Cory had a vision, a "zen garden" for the side of our yard, which my husband thought was brilliant. Together they came up with a plan that totally changed an unused muddy spot to a magnificent walkway with new bushes and personality. Daniel and Alberto made sure that everything was perfect when they put down the stones and did the new plantings. Cory then suggested we add lights, which we then did. KUDOS to Cory for her creativity and enthusiasm. She is wonderful to work with and you can see how much she enjoys what she does. We are enjoying our yard even more, and now keep the side window open so that we can look at our new walkway. THANK YOU CORY.

I am extremely disappointed with my experience. I spent over $300 on flowers and vegetable plants,…read moreand within just two weeks, all of them have died despite being properly cared for when I contacted the store, they refused to stand behind their product or offer any type of resolution. there was nothing on my receipt indicating that the plants were sold without and warranty or guarantee. ironically, I have purchased flowers from many different locations like jewel for one that were significantly less expensive and lasted MUCH longer. based on this experience, I feel I did not receive the quality i paid for. because of lack of customer service and refusal to address the issue, i will be filing a complaint with the better business bureau. I expected much better quality and customer service support, especially after spending a significant amount of money on garbage. I have attached a photo of just one of the piece of trash I purchased
