Although I see some negative reviews, I have to say that I spend a good deal of time and money at this nursery and have always found the place well stocked, well kept and the staff have always been very pleasant and helpful. I have a couple of acres with multiple areas cut beds in both sun and shade. Thanks to this nursery I have planted beautiful and healthy plants that have absolutely no issues other than an occasional mismarked seedling flower. I have been very happy with them for years and will continue to use this business regularly. read more

I'm surprised by some of these review. I have shopped and bought here many times without any negativity from the staff. They offer good sales on healthy plants that do well for me. I look forward to browsing their good selection again soon! read more

My wife and I have shopped at Potomac Farms since moving to the area. We'd always had pleasant experiences. This past Sunday we spent over $200 on flowers and other gardening items. Among the items we bought were approximately $70 worth of hanging Impatiens. By Monday they were completely dead. We figured "No big deal. We'll let them know what happened and they'll surely stand behind their products." After-all, we'd literally bought them the day before. Instead of treating us like valued customers, Sixta (a Manager we'd been friendly with on several previous visits) belittled us, yelled at us, harassed us, told us the situation was our fault, informed us that our business wasn't desired, and hung-up on us. We have NEVER been treated as poorly at a retail establishment as we were at Potomac Farms. Setting the return aside, the disrespect we were shown was outrageous and unbecoming of a professional establishment. Before you shop here you should know how little they value customers. My wife and I were valued at less than $70 worth of dead flowers, but maybe losing some business will make them rethink disrespecting their customers in the future. Perhaps consider Meadows Farms in Harper's Ferry (304) 724-3000 or Sunny Meadows Garden Center in Boonsboro (301) 302-0740. read more

Sadly, have to agree with other reviewers postings. My impression is that my business is not at all valued. I was treated as though I was an imposition on the staff's time. There are other nurseries in the area who will get my business. read more

Have shopped here for several years and have been happy with the shrubs, flowers and mulch (bulk and bags). Sixta, in particular, has been very helpful. Have had a non-helpful encounter but in general all experiences have been good. read more

I find the staff ranges from uninterested to disrespectful. When entered the checkout area, before even greeting me, the clerk looked at my cart and began with "Let me tell you the first that's wrong ..." They refused to sell me flats because I did not have an "account." Apparently they compartmentalize their inventory, but who would know, as it is not labeled. Rather than help me find the correct item, I was sent back outside alone with a description of what I could not buy while 3 employees sat behind a counter. When it appeared to him that I was out of earshot (which I was not), a scruffy gentleman who appeared to be in a position of authority referred to me as "f*cking annoying." I shall take the burden of my patronage 15 miles down the road from now on. read more

I had posted a favorable review of this nursery, but this past weekend's experience prompts me to revise my review. I wanted a certain tree -- a weeping pink cherry -- and I called ahead to make certain they had it in stock. Yes, I was told, they did. I made a special trip. I wandered the stock to see if I could find them, because I shop lots of nurseries and can usually find my way around. Having no luck, I went into the building where the tools and so forth and the cash registers are. I asked one of four employees not helping customers if she could point me to the weeping cherry trees. Without a trace of irony, she said, "Outside." To which I replied, "Could you narrow that down at all?" She seemed annoyed. Long story short, they did not have any. It's bad enough to tell a caller you have in stock something that you don't, but then when they ask you to stop chatting with a coworker to assist you, and you're just a buzz kill. There are nurseries that are much more customer service oriented, and I will post a review of one that was a longer drive but where I should have gone in the first place. They had a number of very healthy cherry trees, at various prices, and insisted on carrying the plant to my SUV and loading it for me. Not surprisingly, their cash registers were ringing. read more

Used to be great, don't know what they did this year though! After several hundred dollars in hanging plants for my pool area (all get the same care) most are dead, but some are thriving. Same water, same sun, same type of plant...I'm done! read more
