Great selection of large trees, shrubs and plants. Once you have a landscaper who works with Mortellaro's, everything can happen on your timeline and the prices are very reasonable. I compared three different nurseries and Mortellaro's had the biggest, healthiest selection at the best price. I purchased 30 gallon trees. read more

See all

Beautiful selection of plants! It's hidden right off I35. Note that it is not open to the public- wholesale only, so we are here with our landscaper. read more

Always an amazing selection. I truly enjoy shopping here. I can't stay away. I only wish I knew about Mortellaro's Nursery years ago.

Good plants and the person who was complained about commonly is gone! Closed to the public so buyers must be part of a business

worst nursery i've ever been to. what nursery doesn't allow you to look at all the plants? this one. save yourself the time , money , and gas. find any other nursery. it's bound to be better than this one. read more

After about 15 years of doing business, my time with them is done. We had 4 trees that were ordered wrong; we do not know if it was out staff or theirs. They came up with about 10 reasons why they would not take them back. They finally agreed for a 10% restocking fee, which I agreed to, to then said it looked like we took them out of the containers and then put them back in. I told them we had not and had barely gotten them out of the truck before we realized and they basically called me a liar. Wholesale nurseries are few and far between in our area but Mortellaros will certainly be last on my list. I'd rather buy retail then have to deal with them again. read more

I'm making an account with yelp (which I abstain from as a small business) for the sole purpose of joining these other hard working landscaping companies in blasting Mortellaros and their belligerent leader, James Hardin. I am a retail garden center less than fifteen miles away from this company and it would seem to be a no brainer that I would purchase a lot from them for resale. Over the years, not to mention spending an average of 30-40k a year with them, my hard working salesman got me to look past constant mistreatment of my business in order to get me product that I truly needed. This mistreatment ranged from parking lot issues that closely resemble other reviews on this site, all the way to billing drama and just general disdain that I would bother them with my orders. It was unlike anything I've ever experienced with other wholesale companies. The final straw came over something so outrageous that sometimes I replay this in my mind to still try and figure out what I am missing. I placed an order on a Monday for a delivery on Thursday, the soonest they could get to me. Tuesday afternoon I called my salesman to say, so sorry for the change, but I need to "drop x amount" of one item but would like to add something larger. I was dropping 10, 5gallon plants I decided I didn't need and added a very large tree. I would be paying an extra $32.00. He sheepishly informed me that they would be charging me a restocking fee. RESTOCKING? My order is over 48 hours away, not on a truck, how could it possibly be subject to restocking?? He understood, but it wouldn't be something he had control over. He said they "might have" already pulled it and put it in a holding area. So it would take one employee 10 min to go grab and put back in the inventory? I know they are busy, but in the scheme of things in this industry, this is a very very small task. Not to mention, NOT even the morning of or anything. Over 48hrs away. The 15% restocking fee on the difference came to $18.00. I obviously informed him that this would not be a fee I would be paying....and they chose to loose a significant company over $18.00. Side point, if I were the salesman on something like this, I would more than likely not say a thing, pay my customers fee of 18bucks and not loose the commissions on 30k a year, but this guy probably couldn't start down that slippery slope with this company. Who knows. But there is no question about how greedy this new "rule" was...and he knew it. It's just outrageous. To top it all off, they sent the bill for the 18bucks even though I cancelled the entire order. HILARIOUS. Keep on sending that stamp! Never will it be paid. These owners are jokes. I have a very keen understanding of how hard it is to run small biz, and keep everyone happy. But over and over and over again, these guys seem to enjoy abusing their peers. They treat them like scum. The entire environment when you drive in and try to smile at the front desk is just TOXIC. Obviously this review is not for the general public as they cannot shop here. But to the wholesale landscape industry, be honest. Their treatment of people is abusive. If you haven't experienced it yet, hold on. But in the meantime, how about not support them based on principle. Do your shopping elsewhere. They think they are invincible. The few reviews on this website are just a drop in the bucket to the word on the street. This industry is difficult enough without bullies like this. They will never wake up if we continue to support. Of course I miss some things they sell. OH WELL. Put our foot down. Unacceptable. read more

I have been dealing with Mortellaro's for around 30 yrs. I am a professional landscape designer. Today I encountered one of the sons of the original owners, James Hardin Junior. Well, It is about as close as I've come to decking someone in the last 20 yrs. This last month I spent over $5,000.00 with them. Guess how much I will be spending with them from now on? He could write a book on "The Fastest way to lose business and revenue." Shame, it was one of the best nurseries in our area too. I've known some of the employees there forever. I feel bad for them. Amazing how one person can destroy an established business. It's almost like that is what he is trying to do. As much as it saddens me to say this after so long...my advice is to stay far away from these guys now. There are plenty of other nurseries working hard to get our business. Give it to them instead. - Steve. read more

Encountered 'James' today who said he was one of the owners. Couldn't have been more rude and down right ugly to me. I was in their parking lot waiting to meet up with my landscaper; we had our one year old in the car and were slowing driving through to keep my son calm for a few minutes until my landscaper arrived. James comes charging up on his golf cart and wants to know why we're driving around their lot. I explained the situation and to my surprise he told me to go drive in the street or just park. This guy is a class-a JERK. Suffice to say I'll never go back and will be taking my business elsewhere. read more

Mortellaro's had trees in stock I couldn't find elsewhere. The trees I saw were healthy and VERY reasonably priced. Best of all, the people were extremely knowledgeable and very helpful. Scott encouraged me to ask questions, and answered them all in a logical, no-nonsense manner I really appreciated. I got more useful information from him in the time I was there than all the advice I'd gotten elsewhere over the last year. They're located right off IH 35, so it's well worth the drive from Austin. read more
