The reason for the five stars is due to Julio. He's the one that took us around in the golf cart and helped us pick out the best plants. Also, a couple of our plants we recently bought and planted died. With all of the heat and plant shock. There is a 90 day replacement guarantee and Julio responded right away with new plants. Great customer service! read more

He was very knowledgeable, friendly Great service!!! read more

Ryan was quick to answer all the questions I had and not be pushy while we made decisions.

Misael and his team are awesome. They communicated well for delivery and got the trees planted promptly on both occasions.

Worked with Isaiah the other day, he helped me transform my backyard. Super knowledgeable and helpful on any questions we had. Would recommend! read more

Misael and his team absolutely crushed it, I am very happy with the end result. They planted 6 fruit trees, 6 bushes and 2 magnolias. Everyone was very professional. They took their time around the rock and mulch to not mess up the finished landscape area where the planting was happening! Thank you so much Misael and Crew! read more

I called and spoke to Isaiah, and he was able to give info on Eureka Lemon trees! Mark was also very helpful and both gave such wonderful service. I bought my first home, and am looking forward to returning as a repeat customer. I'm so excited for my planting/garden/backyard journey! Moon Valley & Blossom Valley! read more

I purchased an avocado tree from the Flinn Springs location in El Cajon for $1500. They said they would take care of it for 1 year and assured me it would grow and look fabulous. This was a huge waste of money. You can purchase an avocado tree that is the same height at Home Depot for $120. read more

GREG Papstein! We had the pleasure of working with Greg who not only was able to entertain our 3 year old but also educate us on soo many different topics. He helped us load up all our plants and materials and was such a gentleman. We will definitely be back, if not for plants- certainly to hang with Greg. read more

Came here for the first time with my dearest to look for a new tree! We got a special coupon in the mail so we made a day of it. Boy oh boy was it hot!! Once we arrived we were greeted by Bryan. He was so helpful and friendly! He made the tree buying experience seamless and gave us a tour around in the cart! Excited for the delivery of our new African tulip tree! read more

Worked with Andrew and he was awesome. He walked us through the nursery and gave recommendations based on our needs. Then on the delivery and installation date, he showed up - on his day off- to help the install crew position and layout the plantings. Tuomas was the install crew chief and I couldn't be happier with him and his guys. Friendly, fun, engaged, efficient. The whole experience was pleasant. I still have edging and pebbles to place but so far so good. I'll share the final product once I finish my piece. Edit: added photos of the completed project. read more

My wife and I purchased 20 Italian Cypress trees for our back yard. The experience from start to end was excellent. Ryan, our salesperson, was no pressure and very helpful in helping pick and design the landscaping. On planting day, Misaels and his team, were efficient and did a great job planting the trees and leaving the back yard clean. We will definitely come back in the fall for some additional needs. read more

Greg was an excellent help, took us to see various options for succulents and soil. We had a very good rapport and feel most inclined to return soon. Our purchases will be planted with the good memories we have made here. Thank you. read more

I chose a fuchsia Crepe Myrtle from the large selection of Crepe Myrtle varieties. Peter was very helpful in making my decision based on the size of my front yard. It was a bit more pricey than I expected, but the year of service and care was worth it, and there was a mix up on my delivery. MVN came out the next day with the correct tree. I am very happy with Ms Myrtle read more

Mark Young was absolutely amazing in helping us. He visited our home in the morning, and we shared our interest in getting an olive tree. He offered suggestions, explained their process, and shared creative ideas. Later that day, we met him at Moon Valley Nursery. He gave us a tour of not only the olive trees but also the entire property--they have so many trees! He helped us narrow down our choice of olive tree, and we collectively agreed on the perfect one. The purchasing process was a breeze. I highly recommend Mark and Moon Valley Nursery. They educate you and provide a dedicated person to tend to your tree in its initial stages to ensure proper growth and longevity. We will be back again and again! read more

Wow...great service from Esteban. We purchased a Strawberry Tree from another Moon Valley location over a year ago and its been struggling recently (owner error with watering). Esteban welcomed me in to have a seat and asked many questions, reviewed images, and diagnosed as over watering. He provided clear instructions on the next steps and has followed up by text to check progress. THIS is why we purchased from Moon Valley...regardless of store we originally purchased from, they are all one team. Well done Esteban! read more

I'd really like to shout out Moon Valley and especially Mark Young for helping us out with our landscaping plans, dreams, struggles, and everything in between. He helped us select beautiful trees and plants and has helped us tremendously throughout the post plant process, too. read more

World class, friendly service from the moment we entered. We were greeted by Bryan Freytag who was a super down to earth guy and made us feel extremely welcomed. He gave us a tour on a golf cart of the beautiful and giant nursery, showing us everything imaginable. Moon Valley Nurseries truly has a selection like no other nursery we've ever been to, especially when it comes to bigger palm trees. We had lots of questions, and Bryan patiently answered them all. It was clear they were experts, and we felt like we were in good hands. We fell in love with the mejool date palms! Bryan gave us an extremely reasonable price for two mature ones to make a grand entrance for our driveway. We absolutely love it!! (before and after pics posted) The delivery and planting of these large palms went flawless. Jarrod and Eleno were extremely friendly, and even more skilled. They put those trees exactly where we wanted them with no problems at all. It was very impressive to watch. We are so happy with the trees and service we received at Moon Valley from Bryan, Jerrod, and Eleno, that we just put in another order! Highly recommend anyone in the market for plants, trees, etc. to come to Moon Valley Nurseries (El Cajon) and talk to Bryan. You will immediately know you're in good hands. read more

Moon just planted a row of Indian Laurel in our side yard to give us privacy from a neighbor. We worked with Andrew to select the right plants for our needs. He came out promptly and gave us some options. Overall, they did a fantastic job. Their install crew worked super hard, were pleasant and cleaned up well. The price is definitely higher than we expected but we do feel the service was spot on. Would definitely recommend. read more

When our family moved to El Cajon/Fletcher Hills 7 years ago, we wanted to turn our backyard into a tropical paradise. After reading reviews of local nurseries, we settled on Moon Valley Nursery. That was the best decision we made. Over the past several years we have purchased many plants and trees from Moon Valley Nursery. When we needed expert advice in the care of our recently planted Magnolia tree, Ryan Fulton willingly, with a professional and positive attitude, took the time to answer all my questions. With the recommended products, our tree improved but still needed a boost. Ryan recommended we have a MVN Certified Arborist do soil injection treatment. Ryan Ensured that we had a scheduled appointment. Jerrod Jerabe, MVN Certified Arborist was professional. He gave us a 30 min. courtesy call when he was enroute to our home. Jerrod greeted us in a friendly professional manner. He listened to our concerns and addressed every question we had without rushing us to get to his next appointment. He was thorough with the procedure and went the extra mile. Jerrod recommended a soil moisture tester and product for treating the bug issue. He even invited us to call with any additional questions. At the end of the day, as promised, Jerrod sent a follow up message recapping what we discussed during his visit. A wonderful experience with Moon Valley Nursery where they always make us feel like a valued customer. read more

We undertook a pretty serious backyard renovation project last year and, without a doubt, the trees from Moon Valley are the best part. Seriously transformative. More importantly, super happy with the customer service provided thru their MVP program which has kept the trees looking better and better every month. Totally, 100% worth it -- we even renewed it recently cause it's so awesome. Big ups to Jerrod Jerabek and Brandon lasher for seriously good customer service and expertise! read more

I purchased a fruitless mulberry tree recently after doing extensive research on trees that thrive in this area. I have always gone to Kniffing's nursery as it is family owned and reasonably priced. I decided to give Moon Valley a try as they are a juggernaut in the nursery industry. I paid a thousand dollars for a tree that was about 4-5 years old, and left with the confidence that I would have my backyard shade tree. They said it would take a week to deliver, which I though was a long time as we are literally up the street. It ended up taking 10 days and one day it was just in my backyard when I got home. NO CALL, NO EMAIL, NOTHING... they entered my backyard while I was at work, going through TWO GATES and left it sitting on my turf. When I got home, I immediately put it in the ground with local dirt (as they instructed). The tree looked sad when it was delivered. Almost as if they had taken it off the lot when we bought it and put in in some container for the 10 days before it got to us. The very next day it started losing leaves. It is now almost completely bare, and Moon Valley is taking ZERO responsibility. In fact, they said they could send someone to look at it, but it would cost me $50 to do so. Mind you, I live up the street. What a terrible place to do business. Some places get too large and lose touch with customer service. This is definitely one of them. They have completely lost my business, as well as anyone in my family. I will continue to share my story with my large network of East County natives who were not upset when they took over in the first place. Support local, support family owned, and don't let these money hungry businesses take over. read more

Love this place!! Gorgeous plants and super helpful folks make this a nursery you need to visit. Whether you have a large project or a small revamp, you can find it here! Thanks so much to the gentlemen who helped on the phone and in person - you made our plan come together beautifully! read more

My husband and I have been wanting a tropical landscape for our home and one Saturday went and visited Moon Valley nursery in El Cajon. We met James M. as soon as we parked. He showed us the palm trees that we were interested in. He made the process easy, marked the plants we picked and scheduled our delivery/planting date. James M. came out to our home to mark where the plants would be planted and answered all our questions that came up in the meantime. Super helpful and knowledgeable. On the delivery date a team came out with a huge truck. We went over the game plan and they started to work. La Mesa has a lot of hard ground and rocks so for our king palm, they had to jackhammer through a lot of rock. They did a good job and gave us some care instructions and we were all set. We're happy with the service Moon Valley provided us! read more

Called up yesterday to get a price on a Juniper with Pom Poms. I had just killed mine by over trimming. Nice guy sent me photo, juniper with two poms. 5 gal. I asked him price for pick up, no planting, etc. He said....$400 per plant - I messaged him back questioning the price, he never replied. I thought he was kidding, but alas no. So I called other Nursery in Point Loma, got a price for 6 head Juniper Pom Pom Monrovia Nursery...$150. Moon Nursery inflates prices beyond reason. Do not recommend. read more

I have been working with Andrew from Moon on a fairly sizable and complex tree and plant install at my house. The crew led by Adam was exceptional and made the whole day a fun experience for me (and some of our neighbors, too!) I'm so used to hearing "this won't work," or "we can't..." that a day of seamless problem solving by Adam's team was a joy to watch. The two olive trees are truly beautiful and the massive succulents, cacti, grasses and agave have made this project complete. Thank you all for your excellent, hard work. read more

Huge huge huge shout-out to Moon Valley, from the first time I went in, Peter,James and the entire crew were always professional, I explained my goals, and how I wanted my yard to look, they assisted me with everything, even scheduling a planting MAJOR SHOUTOUT to Haden, and the crew they arrived within the time frame, even calling when they were on the way, if you are unsure where to start, this is the place to start, from start to finish, and everything in between, I couldn't have asked for more professionalism, knowledge, assistance in all my plant needs! read more

I called the office regarding an issue with a palm that I bought a year ago. Esteban was very professional, receptive, and quick with a resolution. Great experience, communication, and follow-thru! I am very pleased. Thank you! Bryan assisted me in selecting a replacement palm on a Friday. He was very friendly, professional, and he got everything arranged/scheduled promptly. He had the palm delivered and planted that following Monday. Thank you! Lastly, Adam and his planting crew did a top notch job planting it! Thank you! read more

Needed two new trees to replace some very old and sick Jacarandas. Had heard of Moon Valley but never used them before. Made an appointment via their website, very easy to use. Mark Young called the night before to confirm and met us promptly at the arranged time. He explained the whole process then drove us around their huge yard. He helped us pick out two mature and beautiful Crape Myrtles. He was very helpful and knew his stuff. The delivery crew, let by Misael Baza, showed up on the pre-arranged day and did a great job. All super friendly and professional. Took extra care to clean up well beyond what I expected. Provided clear instructions for care as well. I was very impressed and would recommend. read more

Last week my sister and I visited Moon Valley Nursery in Flinn Springs. We were amazed at the stunning colors and health of the plants. We met Mike Boehm who couldn't have been more helpful. He answered all our questions and even offered some other ideas we never thought of. I picked up some Moon Valley Juice and fed my plants the moment I got home. Just one week later, plants that have never bloomed and trees that never produced have blossoms, even this time of year. I'm hooked. Can't wait to go back for another visit. Thanks Mike! read more

Absolutely amazing service! It doesn't even count as service, my experience was a lot more than that. I showed up looking to add some trees to add some privacy to the front our house, I was met by Bryan and he was so friendly and fun to talk to, that it felt more like hanging out at my brothers house. He took us for a ride all around the property which was informative for me and a joy ride for the kids! Normally taking kids anywhere reduces how long you can spend somewhere and how much information you're able to take in, but this wasn't a problem. The kids were having a blast while I had every question I had answered. I had several specific goals- ever green trees with no unsafe berries for my young kids and their friends or my pets to get at, plus no roots that would damage concrete, other landscaping or pipes. We ended up with Ficus Nitida fruitless figs for a privacy hedge and a stunning strawberry tree to put in front of a bedroom window and as a center piece when pulling into the driveway. The install guys were great and did an amazing job to boot- despite having to dig through extremely tough ground. They were careful around other irrigation and pipes in the ground- being very close to our gas and water main. They placed everything exactly where I wanted it. The install crew also fertilized the soil correctly as well. I simply can't say enough about the entire experience start to finish. Every single person I interacted with was great. Every step was easy. The fact that we all had fun on top of that speaks volumes. As a side note, before final purchase my wife came out to pick the trees out, they had an event on with free grilled food and beverages supplied, it ended up being closer to a date night that landscape shopping. Although we spent more than we initially intended, we know we got a killer deal. This is the single best visual upgrade to our home and property since we moved in. read more

I was so happy with the service and selection at this Nursery. Kyle was so helpful and knowledgeable with picking our trees. Bodey and his crew were awesome with delivery and planting of them. Timely, efficient, tidy and most important friendly and helpful with any questions. I would not hesitate to use them again in the future and 100% confident in recommending them to friends, family and clients of mine. I can't wait for when they bloom! The most beautiful purple ground cover too. read more

Love this place! I needed a variety of plants and maybe one or two trees to top off our front yard remodel. On my first visit Andrew drove me around all over their nursery in a cart for at least an hour. He took detailed notes and we thoroughly discussed composition. On another day I came back, only to hand pick the exact plants we would select for our home. Again, Andrew was so easy to work with and it was some of the most fun & stress free decision making I experienced since moving into this home. Finally the day came. Juan and his crew showed early and immediately went to work. They did such an awesome job identifying physical challenges and overcoming them with simple alternatives or slight deviations from the plan. Also worth mentioning were being extra cautious ever since a different company accidentally punctured a water line. These guys were extremely considerate of my concern in that regard, carefully digging around any of the target spots we were using and making absolute sure we wouldn't again hit something serious. The experience was great, the results are beautiful and their staff was a pleasure to work with. Good people! read more

This is the first time that I've been to the nursery since they were bought out by Moon Valley. Their prices have doubled or tripled from what they were before. They are the most expensive nursery ever, without a doubt. For a comparison, shrub that is $70.00 at Home Depot was "on sale" for $299. A 6' cypress was "on sale" for $1500 Won't ever be going back...yikes!!! read more
