Despite growing up around here, I somehow never stumbled through these grand entrance gates until recently. This gem of a garden isn't just my butt's savior now on long drives up from LA, but it's a sliver of paradise found--and sanity regained. Just walking around here for 15-20 mins. and you'll feel your blood pressure drop a few notches to a pleasant state of calm. You can explore the themed areas, take in the vegetation around you, and get landscaping tips just from strolling around their property. The plant things are grouped in various climate/hemispheres and it's nice to see them taking root and being incorporated in a seamless design (and it's nice shopping experience too). I was impressed with the selection and bought a few small air plants and succulents that are still thriving with offshoots. Prices are reasonable. For pros looking for inspo, I think this place that can offer Interior Designers & Landscapers creativity with plants. Or even the DIY Weekend Warrior looking to revamp their current landscaping or add a little something new to it. They have a wide variety of exotics, California natives to indigenous to Australia, and every other tree, shrub, and greenery in between. Since it's the year of the (hobby) horse, I'll be sure to get my butt up here more often in 2026.

This is by far the best nursery I've ever been to, and I've lived in Santa Barbara my entire life…read more I would drive to Summerland/carp any day for this selection and for their prices. I'm almost hesitant to post this review because I don't want to have it be swamped. Next time I go, but it really is that good. They have a huge variety to choose from and their knowledge and expertise is second to none. Plus they loaded everything into my car for me and they let me take my dogs around as I looked for plans throughout their huge nursery. Service 11/10, selection, 11/10, value 12/10. If anything, I'm under selling this review. Once you go and see for yourself, you'll know exactly what I mean

I have been purchasing plants from this nursery for years because I have always liked the variety,…read moreprice points, and customer service from Freddie. However, today changed that! I was there planning on purchasing bouganvilla shrubs but the owner, Alfredo, was an absolute Son-of-a-Bitch! He lacks solid customer service skills which is absolutely essential when dealing with the public. I had a question about the shrub and he would not even answer it as he told me that his time was being wasted as he is a busy man. In addition, he also said that his nursery is NOT retail but wholesale! Alfredo, you obviously are ONE miserable human being and should really consider another job that does not include people. I really feel sympathy for the workers who work for you as you must interact in the same way with them. As you told me, you pay your son, Freddie, A LOT of money for working at your nursery and quite frankly, you SHOULD! If it wasn't for your son, daughter, and workers, you would have NOTHING because your an ASSHOLE!! So, today, you LOST a great customer because I will NEVER return to purchase from your nursery ever again! And, I most certainly will tell others to never patronize your nursery as there are many others to choose from.

The owner and staff are very knowledgeable and friendly, and they offer a discount on bags of soil with a purchase. The planter, which was handcrafted in Italy, is very solid and durable and heavy! The staff put it on top of cardboard in my SUV with a forklift, and I had to be careful driving with it in my backseat (where it stayed for more than a week because my boyfriend's teen sons weren't sure they could move it out of my car and up two flights of stairs to the roof patio). We finally got it out of my car and put it in place and it is stunning!!! It is a piece of art, and a beautiful, breathable container for our beloved Dahlia bushes.

Of course, the prices are astronomical for a regular person such as myself but I spent an hour pretending I was shopping for Oprah! LOL! There were a few vases and plant containers made out of oyster shells and such that I absolutely loved. Next time I come back, I'm going to have saved some money to get one of those shell vases!!
