Hello. I am very disappointed inthem. I have shopped there for several years and have always had…read moregood luck. But about 3 to 4 weeks ago we purchased 2 rose's bunches. planted them the same one is dead. so all I wanted was a replacement. did not expect a refund. I received neither. all they could tell us was they needed to talk to their management and would get back to me. Nothing just replace the rose. I will probably will not shop there again. Thanks.

Absolutely incredible, enchanting nursery! OMG, I am in love! They have all the norms - annuals,…read moreperennials, veggies, herbs, roses, shrubs, trees - but the variety within each is like nothing I have ever seen before. So unique! The plants are healthy and thriving. I wanted everything! Gerbera daisies are one of my favorite flowers. With their bright colors of yellow, orange, red and pink, they remind me of happy faces and I always plant them in my containers. In winter months, I buy bouquets to brighten up my space. Typically I buy the yellows and oranges, which I call sunshine colors. At Good News Gardening, they had a variety that I had never seen; the petals were much thinner and in abundance, adding so much texture and whimsy. Even though the tag said Gerbera, I had to ask one of the ladies working there if it was, indeed, a Gerbera Daisy! Next year, this is where I will buy them, no question. As I wandered around, I noticed every section had unique varietals. The dahlias were the size of a dinner plate and the colors of peach, yellow, white and pink in one flower stopped me in my tracks. Only to be outdone by the vibrant orange and white striped variety. In the herb section, options are boundless. At least a dozen types of oregano. Spicy Italian oregano? Yes, please! Dozens of types of mint (plant only in a contained area) and so many varieties of basil. More types of lettuce and tomatoes than I had ever heard of or eaten. This incredulous reaction occurred in every area that I visited. I have been gardening for 40 years and today I learned so much! Wow. Inside they have houseplants and a huge section of seeds. I'm totally into Oregon wildflowers like the delicate blue cornflower, bright orange California poppy, yellow & orange milkweed and yarrow to name a few. They had seed packets of each or mixed. Lots of seeds for veggies, too. The section was extensive! When you are inside you will be serenaded by the dozens of little birds that found their way in and are sitting on the poles or in the rafters singing their songs! Everyone here is happy, and who wouldn't be?! Everyone working there was super friendly and helpful. They genuinely love what they do and are so knowledgeable. They don't just want to sell you something, they want what you purchase to grow and thrive. Shout out to Maria who shared my love for that incredible Gerbera Daisy and showed me all the different colors it came in. Prices are a bit higher but the quality and uniqueness makes it totally worth it. Next year, I will head directly here without even stopping anywhere else. With my limited amount of space for flowers, I only want the best and unique!

They always have gorgeous, healthy plants at great prices. that is a winning combination! my first…read moreexperience with Vanguard was at the Hood River Harvest Festival a few years ago. Their selection of vibrant mums and huge, ornamental kale caught my attention. Then as I wandered through the rows of plants, I discovered gorgeous indoor plants including my favorite, bromeliads. They had them in red, yellow, orange and a deep pink. I bought four! After discovering them, I now drive over the bridge to White Salmin during the spring for my annual planting. And anytime I need a new bromeliad, anthurium, snake plant, philodendron or succulent for my home. the quality and prices are the best!

Kris was prompt in coming and giving a quote for taking down a large tree and doing substantial…read moretree trimming on my property. He was friendly and jotted down notes in his book, and gave me a verbal quote for the work. There was no email or text follow up, so I reached out three days later to ask for a written quote, he said he was out of town for another 8 days and didn't have access to his book. He didn't reach out to me, so I contacted him three weeks later, he messaged back saying he didn't have his book with him, and he still planned to do the project but he was behind due to a storm. Another month goes by... I reach out again, asking for a date. He writes back, saying he doesn't have his calendar and is out of town again, but has availability in four weeks, and he would get back to me with a specific date "as soon as I get back, on the 17th." It's now three weeks after the 17th, and no communication whatsoever. Taking my business elsewhere.

The customer service is exceptional! While I'm often there for the typical hardware items for home projects, I can't visit the store without checking out the home area where they often have really nice decor like dish towels, candles and kitchen gadgets. The garden area is also a must visit for whimsical yard art, glass hummingbirds and healthy indoor plants. Parking lot is huge! I love everything about this store.
