    Deelish rose

    A good friend recommended this spot for those who luv flowers and gardening. Visiting with a special bunch we ventured through to explore the lands. Beautiful scenery with flowers of every shape size and color. Like walking into the shire during spring time. During the rose festival there were so many types of roses I never even knew existed. Julia child, Elizabeth Taylor, Martha Stewart have their own rose. It's an incredible sight to see and smell. Gardening ideas, green thumb accessories, outdoor furniture and interior decor beautifully displayed. Staff were helpful and informative. There's also a farmhouse restaurant to stop in for lunch or dinner.

    When we think of Roger's and its history of being in business for 50 years, we are reminded of a great friendship. This blissful garden began in Costa Mesa (1965) with Roger McKinnon. Then his friend Gavin Herbert Sr. purchased it and relocated it to the lush enclave of Corona Del Mar. The historical elements and new botanical designs on the property (Disneyland Gazebo & Hanging Baskets to name a few) make for a novel experience upon each visit. At Roger's you have an invitation to dine at "The Farmhouse" and experience the cuisine of Chef Mead. He offers handcrafted meals for vegetarians and vegans. Happy 50th Anniversary Roger's Gardens!

    I took my mom here to pick something out for Mother's Day! She loved it and it's dog friendly. It's gorgeous inside and has a great selection. Would recommend the visit !

    This place is a dream. They sell plants and accessories for your perfect enchanted garden. Not only is it incredibly beautiful but it's astonishing just how much thought has been put into the layout. Words can't really describe how special the place is. You can smell the fresh flowers and even the fruits/ vegetables. Whatever theme you're looking for, they have the colors, the figurines, the fountains and the vases to match. The employees are friendly and helpful. There's also an indoor area for household items. They have a restaurant but I didn't eat there. It's pretty pricey; there's $300 flower pots. But I guess considering the location and the one of a kind items, it makes sense.

    Every inch of this place is beautiful. If you love plants you will love it here. So many beautiful items are displayed in their store during Christmas. Halloween time has really cool displays as well.

    This place! Its a theme park for plant lovers. Each section of the garden is designated for a type of plant - orchids, drought tolerant, sun loving, vegetable, fruit tree, and during holiday time, Christmas trees! Magnificent place to feel the holiday spirit with elaborate displays of various themes and an outdoor/covered restaurant on-site to enjoy the temperate Southern California climate. Of.course they have heaters. 60° is freezing!

    Just gorgeous à la Georgia O'Keefe from Roger's Garden.

    I received a beautiful succulent from Roger's Garden as a gift from my best friend. It was so beautifully wrapped by 'Bev' and it is now thriving in my home.

    I love this place! We went right after the Christmas shop opened. We lucked out and were able to see the Halloween shop, all the pumpkins outdoors, and the Christmas shop. Everything of course was beautifully decorated. Spending the afternoon here wandering around and looking at all the ornaments and decorations was just a relaxing way to spend an afternoon. We got a lot of ideas on how to decorate for the holidays. We couldn't eat at the Farmhouse because it was crazy crowded and we wanted to catch the second half of the Dodgers game. The parking here is a nightmare so try to go early. Thank God my man is patient because I think I would have just turned around and gone home but he knew how much I wanted to go see all the decorations. I will definitely return..., I love going here every year. I missed last year so I'm happy I am back for it all this year!

    It was my first time here on Sat 09/13/25. For sure, it will not be the last. This place was nice and huge. It looked even nicer than some of the botanical gardens that I have been too. So glad I got introduced to this place. My mom loves plants. I will be taking her here soon =] This place offered so much. They have so many different types of plants and flowers. They have gift shops and a restaurant inside. It can get pretty hot. Will be wearing a hat or carry an umbrella on my next visit.

    Halloween deco!

    A plant lovers dream. They also have Halloween and Christmas decorations! Some of their decorations are handcrafted and are unique compared to the usual HomeGoods/Marshalls/tj Maxx etc. definitely a bit pricer. The parking gets super crazy, but they have free valet in the back. I think I'll prob start coming here every Halloween to get the both of best holidays :)

    Roger's Gardens is one of my favorite places to go to during the various holidays because of their intricate and festive decor. Nothing gets me into a holiday mood better than a stroll through here. Picked up a few knickknacks that fancied me for my little fairy garden I have. Basically, two small animal rocks, small wishing well, and a Santa and toto came out to be $70ish dollars. Yikes! That is the reality of their prices here, so expect that when shopping here. Line was long and kind of slow. Took about 15 min to get to front. Lots of selection of different plants and everything else in between for your yard and home

    After a delectable luncheon at Farmhouse, we walked on over to Roger's Gardens. This place was HUGE!!!!! You'll find many varieties of plants, all sectioned off and organized. Not only plants, but pottery, garden decor, gift shop, and many garden landscaped sections to give you inspiration. I took a ton of pics. Give yourself at least half a day to explore. Prices are a little steep Plenty of parking

    I just fertilized w bone meal and look at the blooms

    Ask the Community - Roger's Gardens

    When do the Christmas decorations get taken down? I would like to visit on 12/30/25

    the decor will still be up! enjoy 🎄

    Are dogs allowed outdoors?

    Yes!

    Does their Christmas ornaments or decor go on sale after Christmas?

    Yes they do! In store only.

    Is reservation required for dining?

    It is not required but highly suggested. There is an extremely long wait time if they will add you on.

    Is there an entrance fee?

    No. It is a store/restaurant- Open 7 days a week. not a special market or event.

    Do they sell byers choice caroleers?

    I would suggest calling Roger's Gardens.

    Is parking valet or public parking?

    It's public parking, and usually pretty tight on the weekends.

    Are there job openings for floral or plant arrangements?

    You can find all jobs openings for Roger's Gardens on their website at: https://www.paycomonline.net/v4/ats/web.php/jobs?clientkey=18EB57EC86510D9EA9FCDC76A87D0E74&jpt=e3aed6542eec452fd354680ad58b2719

    Dog allowed inside?

    Yes as long as they are on a leash. Mostly small dogs.

    Do they carry red wigglers (worms)?

    I saw a container of earthworms for sale last week.

    Do they carry house plants or is it mainly outdoor plants?

    They carry everything... although the outdoor plant selection is by far the focus. I've done Nursery Crawls in case you are looking for plant shops just let me know.

    Is it Dog friendly?

    Yes it is. The garden section at least. Unsure of the restaurant portion

    Do they sell lilac bushes?

    I think I saw a few and my local Armstrong also had a lot. I do #nurserycrawls all over Southern California if you can't find any let me know.

    Do they have lithops, watermelon pepperomia, or variegated string of hearts?

    Yes, but I suggest calling us before you come in to make sure we have them in stock.

    Will you have to pay to admission?

    No, there is no fee to enter! It's basically a store.

    How long are the Christmas decorations up? Are they still up now? When do they take the Christmas decorations down?

    By the day after Christmas when everything is 50% off most items are very picked over and the decorations are gone. To really enjoy it you need to go in late October, early November to enjoy the full glory.

    Is there anywhere else to park the parking lot is small and they additional parking is valet , so many people couldn't get a parking left after 20min of waiting?

    The additional parking is free valet but that gets full, too. I agree with Cindy and get there early. I would try to go during the week to avoid weekend traffic at Roger's Garden. Good luck.

    When are they decorated for Christmas?

    They decorate and I'm sure its all up by now, but what they are most known for at Christmas time is their extensive displays of ornaments on Christmas trees. Exclusives and high end. Its worth it though. Check their website!

    Will you guys be open on Labor Day this monday?

    Is this a good place to take kids, a 4 and 7 year old?

    It depends on your kids. It is a beautiful time of year to go walk around and see the decorations. There are many things to see and enjoy some for adults but kids too. Look on the website to see when Santa will be seeing children. He sits in the… Read more

They had a wonderful selection of popular items including indoor plants, succulents, orchids, fruit trees, flowering plants, and bonsai. Since I am into succulents it was nice to see the variety they had in stock. Only downside is the pricing of these succulents. I also looked at orchid and pondered whether to replace my indoor collection but the pricing was a bit too high for me to justify replacing all my indoor orchid plants. So instead, I picked one new succulent and one beautiful purple orchis and checked out. I also browsed their collection of ceramic planters and seasonal garden decorations to get some inspiration for my own backyard. Overall, service was good. The staff was very knowledgeable about plant care and watering tips and they gave me advice on keeping my succulents and orchids alive. HAHA we will see how they behave in the next few months. In conclusion, good shopping experience here. Will be back here if my new plants need more tender loving care advice!
