Plant House Nursery - Nurseries & Gardening Near Me - El Cajon, California

This is one of my favorite outdoor nurseries. Now first off it's nothing fancy mostly outdoor plants. Lots of parking, no pets allowed they have a beautiful lab that walks around and greets guests. Prices are really good. I started buying milkweed from them because they use no pesticides and my caterpillars eat the plants up before they turn into monarchs. I also love their succulents and hanging plants. Never had a problem with any plants I purchased very healthy. They do give you a credit for any plastic pots that you bring. Customer service is 5star they are the best. read more

They had plenty of milkweed plants for my raising monarch butterflies. Very friendly - staff very helpful.

Wow! I was very impressed by the quality of flowering plants and succulents especially considering the price. The selection was lower since spring just began but it was still ample. They had beautiful flowering trees but I did not have a vehicle to haul them. I highly recommend visiting this spot. read more

Great experience. Plant House has great prices, friendly/helpful customer service, and a nice feel about their place. I was welcomed by a dog and could just walk around looking for what I needed. I would definitely recommend this spot to a friend. The images attached are a jacaranda tree ($60 for 15" box) and some ice plants I got from there. read more

I went in today, and channel 10 news was there interviewing the owners. apparently the word is out as to how great this nursery is :).... I do enjoy giving my business to a family owned business as opposed to a big chain store, . worth a trip in !! tell em I sent you read more

Today I decided to head in after two years. Before it was a nice older lady and a sweet older dog. Went in with my children. They picked out their own flowers and asked for boxes for the flowers that I purchased. Would have been pretty nice for each child to have flowers in their own box to hold while driving home. The man was disgruntled about the boxes. " I have to keep the boxes for customers" last time I checked I was a paying customer asking for boxes to fit my flowers in. I mentioned asking for my money back and the older man yelled at the younger one " give her her FN money back" the young kid looks at me and says " I hope Karma gets you" all while the older man yells " Home Depot won't give you great service either. absolutely outrageous that it had to come to that. I'd rather go to Edith at Home Depot in Santee. Now that's great customer service! read more

Excellent selection of blueberry bushes that are thriving in my yard. Fairly priced plants and the owners very knowledgeable about plants that grow well in San Diego County. read more

great place to buy milkweeds! I stopped by another nearby nursery and they were charging 5x as much for the same plant! great prices and service here. read more

Visited the plant house nursery a while back and I can't believe I forgot to post a review about it. The place is magnificent if you love plants. No pets allowed which prevented me to spend a lot of time in the nursery since I had my pup waiting for me in the car. Healthy plants, variety of selections, and variety of started pots to grow your plant. Plants were reasonably priced worth the drive to El Cajon. I'll be visiting soon: without the pup this time! read more

Awesome place! Alot of assortments to choose from. Prices can't not be beat. Alot of room to wonder around and browse. Plants have hand written signs with details, some have just the name so take your phone to search. Can't wait to get everything in the ground! Will be back! read more

Plant House Nursery - A rose plant (we did not purchase this one, however it is beautiful) - Nurseries & Gardening Near Me - El Cajon, California

Have driven by this place for years, but never thought to stop until I read an online review. Great place for individuals as well as contractors to stop for landscaping or gardening plants, fertilizers, pots, and soil. Great selection of what I needed & very helpful staff. Can't beat the prices. Way better then big box retail stores. Support our local businesses & try the plant house. My plants have grown beautifully. Very pleased. read more

This is a great nursery, prices are very reasonable and the staff is friendly and helpful. I picked up a variety of plants that I have had trouble finding at other nurseries. They even had milkweed and a few herbs that are harder to find during the summer because they are host plants for butterflies. I'll definitely be back! read more

Stopped by today to pick up some plants for my side yard. Good selection of plants for your house and business. With all of the crazy covid related stuff, they have done their best to keep stock on hand. I have been coming here a long time and service is always good and they are friendly and helpful. One of the last private nurseries around in the East County, nice to not have to go to Home Depot for everything. read more

There are several places near by but this place stands out because they make you feel like part of the community. I love going here because I know the prices are good and the service is kind and excellent. read more

Always like stopping by and seeing what they have growing. Have bought several plants and all are healthy. Great prices too. Say hi to Ginger the sweet chocolate lab when your there. Nice people. read more

So happy to have found this place! Great selection, great prices, and very friendly customer service. The plants all seemed healthy and taken care off. Sometimes at those big box retailers that have a gardening section, well the plants can look a little sad. But not here! It's nice to know that all the plants are locally grown, just a few miles from the location of the nursery. I plan on coming here often. read more

This is my go-to nursery - first off, the prices can't be beat. Secondly, they grow all their plants in Blossom Valley so they are used to the climate here and won't go into shock when you plant them. The staff is always helpful and courteous, being patient with my many questions and helping load heavy bags of soil into my car! This place is awesome :) read more

I like this nursery and Shari is great her husband is impatient..but ok if you dont mind quick fast sharp answers...they have just about everything but no rocks or bricks...lots of plants at a decent price...all in all not a bad place to do business. I recommend it and way better then home depot or lowes as far as the prices go, so I gave it a five star.. read more

Great variety of plants. The staff is incredibly knowledgeable and extremely helpful! This family-owned business is the best!!

Love this place! Great family run business.....Ginger the dog is actually the boss and she has some great people working for her ;-). Great selection of plants ranging from trees to roses and other ornamentals, garden veggies, fruit trees (potted and bare root in winter), and tons of other stuff. You'll get great advice as well as oppose to lesser trained staff at other garden centers. It's much better to support a home-grown business like this as opposed to Home Depot, so stop by, pet Ginger and get some great deals on your plants/trees!! read more

My husband and I recently purchased a house in Lakeside and stopped by here today for the first time. You can't beat the prices! Staff is knowledgeable and kind. Make sure to stop by and say hello to Ginger the Lab. We bought 7 small Blue Point Junipers for $14 each I believe it was. I got a pretty large Jasmine plant for $9.00 which is 3x the size of the one I just purchased at Lowe's. Also got a small morning glory vine for $3. There are a variety of fruit trees, vines, grapes, and different privacy tree species here. We will definitely be coming back! read more

I love this nursery! They usually have exactly what I'm looking for at unbeatable prices. This comes in especially handy when my dog loves to dig up my new plants and eat them... but really $2.50 for good sized herbs, cant beat that! The customer service here is also wonderful and they have tons of great recommendations if you have any questions. read more

Arrived to hear the workers (or the family who owns the place I guess) badmouthing someone's body loudly. I addressed this when asked if I had a question and was told sarcastically to "watch out you might hear a bad word in public" as a response. This is NOT professional behavior to demean people. As a business owner myself, this immature, defensive response to a customer's assertion would not be tolerated. read more

I was so shocked by the lack of service here. How on earth are they going to stay in business, especially during a drought? The first woman knew nothing and told me to look around. She could not answer any question I asked. Then a man drove up and asked if he could help. I said that the woman couldn't help me so I was going elsewhere. He started yelling at me and said it's not their fault it's so hot that they can't help people. read more

I love this nursery!! I believe it is family owned and operated. They are always so helpful and their prices beat anywhere else. Much better quality too! read more

I own a landscape maintenance company, today was the first time I've shopped at Plant House. I needed to find a simple 5 gallon daisy plant and my normal spot had nothing. I didn't want to drive out of the area so I decided to run in here expecting to pay top dollar but was willing to save the gas. I will now do as much business as I can with them. They have a good selection of plants at reasonable rates. Also a personable and friendly staff. I was in and out and only bought one daisy but I took the time to look around and left thinking I will come back... read more

Went here for the first time today. A friend of ours with a way over the top, incredibly nice garden said this was the place. I went here and bought some stepables for a small patio. They answered all of my questions and even double-checked themselves as we went to be sure. I left with silver carpet(dymondia) and I am very happy with it. Very healthy! read more

This nursery is great. They have very reasonable prices and everyone was super nice there. They even called me to let me know when they had some more plants come in that I needed. I'll definitely be back soon. read more

We love this place. We buy all of our plants here. Everybody is friendly and helpful and they are always happy to greet me.

I found a great succulent arrangement for a birthday gift. Everyone loved it. Great Family Business. read more

A great selection here. I picked up a mandarin tree, blueberry bushes and bougainvillea. I had struggled to find what I needed elsewhere. The prices were very reasonable and same day delivery was fairly cheap as well. I would recommend this nursery to anyone looking for trees, fruit trees, flowers, plants and supplies. Knowledgable and helpful. Thanks read more

I love this nursery and recommend it to all my friends and gardening students. The plant quality and selection is excellent. The prices are better than the bigger nurseries sale prices! We buy all our veggie starts here because of the quality and the fact that they are not rootbound. The family members that own and run this nursery are friendly and helpful. Great place to shop! Highest possible recommendation! read more

Went there yesterday very helpful answered all of my questions and helped me pick out some cool plans. I will go back so much better then the big box stores. Great selection. read more
