I forget how truly lovely the garden gallery is. It's more than a nursery because the beautiful merchandise inside is inspirational for all your table setting and home decorating. We went by the other day on a foggy day. It was shortly before Christmas and we wandered around the beautiful rooms to admire the housewares. The building is very inviting to begin with because it's wood and has brick flooring throughout. Everything is displayed artistically with lots of space and in a manner that you might use it in your own home, it's like walking from one beautiful dining room to another beautiful area of a home. I started adding pottery from the Garden Gallery to my collection of housewares and they have served me well over the years because they're always such high-quality. I always get joy from using them The designs and colors are always tasteful and they really go well with any decor. More than that, the way the objects are displayed together is truly artistic and never fails to inspire me! read more

As a plant lover this is one of those spots that I always love to visit when I'm in the area. They definitely have more succulents than anything else but they also have a nice selection of cacti, some common houseplants, and a variety of various pots and saucers as well. All of the plants look really healthy and happy. My advice: Stick to the garden. The plants are all priced reasonably fair. The gallery on the other hand? I do like to walk around the entire store to see if I see something that catches my eye or an attractive plant in a random area, but all of the toys, trinkets, housewares, etc. are INSANELY overpriced! It's worth a visit as they have some charming settings and cute photo ops. read more

I am not really into the souvenir shops an almost any tourist town. That is what I love about the Garden Gallery. This is where I spend an hour while everybody else wonders through the maze of fudge, coffee, quirky tee shirts and post cards. This is what the garden department at a big box retailer would be if it had 100 stories to tell and 100's of interesting ways to create your own garden or home decor story. Leave time to meander through all that this shop has to offer and ask about the artists and merchandise. read more

Paid by card. The Garden Gallery is located on the street and offers street parking. I got soooo lucky finding this place since I was just walking around the town. I went on a weekday during the day and it wasn't too busy. I've never been to such an amazing store before! They have a large selection and several different areas to walk around. I walked around each area probably 3-4 times since I couldn't narrow down what I wanted. I was surprised because they're priced very well. (I went to other local shops and saw large markups for not as healthy or unique plants.) I ended up buying several succulents and plants, even though I wanted to buy more. I would definitely recommend this place and will go back when I'm in the area. read more

VERY unprofessional. My partner's aunt bought one plant for herself, which gave my partner a $5 discount (as shown in the photo). Then, my partner's mom wanted to buy a second plant for them, so my partner tried to redeem a discount using their 50 points, as clearly explained on the store's screen and in a text message they received. The staff refused to apply the discount, and even laughed in my partner's face while they were trying to calmly explain what was written. As my partner was leaving the shop with the plant their aunt had just purchased, the manager ran after them, accusing them of stealing a plant that had already been paid for. DO not go here. read more

I, unfortunately, have a knack for killing plants and have never successfully kept one alive. In contrast, my daughter and good friend have about 100 plants between them and love visiting this place to find new additions they can't resist. They were both thrilled with their choices. This place is beautiful, though prices can be on the higher side. It's always enjoyable to walk through. 6/24/24 read more

We stopped by this store on our way back from Irvine to Northern California on Christmas Eve. It was 12:55 but the store opened open for us until ten past one; and this young man was so polite and patient waiting on us. I really appreciate appr it. I bought quit few plates from this place before; I didn't see any dining plates, though this time. They have the best quality of pottery read more

The Garden Gallery is a wonderful oasis to stop and shop for the usual as well as the unique succulent or cacti you've been looking for. All plants are exquisitely grown and presented throughout the gallery's grounds. Being a specialty merchant, pricing is a bit more than other retailers. They offer indoor plants and specialize in succulents, bonsai trees, and cacti. There are exceptional garden statuary, water features, unique garden pots, and so much more to help one decorate and beautify one's space. Garden Gallery offers a diverse collection of furniture and furnishings for inside and outside living, cards for all occasions, candles and scents, throws, and so much more. Displays are attractive and inviting, and plants and merchandise change regularly as new arrivals emerge. read more

Arrived in Morro Bay early evening and while walking the Embarcadero looking for a place to eat and we saw this interesting place but it was closed and vowed to return in the morning. This time looking for a place to eat breakfast we went here first. Wow! What a neat place and find!! They had a large array of succulents, house plants, furniture and knick knacks that were so unique and fun to see. The displays were something I will try at home home- wooden box frames and pedestals. The way they matched plants was really eye catching. Got some good ideas for home. We ended buying a couple plants as we had another 2 days before heading home. This place is a delight and definite stop for everyone while in Morro Bay!! read more

Another place that I've walked by numerous of time and never made a stop inside. It's beautiful with all the different room. A major garden shop that carries tons of variety of plants. Indoor and outdoor, beautiful gift for everyone. Not just a garden shop but a good variety of home decors. And water features. Just browsing through the different rooms and seeing what was offered was great. As well as getting ideas on design. The outdoors garden center has a major selection of plants, bonsai, succulents and so much more. Beautiful place for a nice wandering around. read more

This place is a plant, candle, gift lover's paradise, amazing selection, beautifully displayed, so fun to just meander through. The only issue I have is with the incredibly unfriendly dark haired woman who probably owns it, she literally cut me off mid sentence while I was telling her a story and took no care whatsoever to pack my purchase. I don't know who spit in your oatmeal lady but try acting like you care about your customers. The younger guy working there was lovely. read more

The Garden Gallery was probably our favorite shop during our stop in Morro Bay! The had a fantastic garden selection (lights, plants, and garden accoutrement) with wonderful holiday and event cards everywhere and also a cute children's section with toys and gifts for little ones. The space is really much larger than it seems from the outside, which makes it appear as if it only sells plants and water fountains. All in all, we loved pursuing the space. The service was friendly and helpful and we most definitely would come back! read more

Great and unique shop! They had an assortment of items that are unique and the garden area inspired us to kick up our garden area! So beautiful! Must see! read more

The Garden Gallery in Morro Bay has been by far my Favorite Store for 50 years. Used to drive From Bakersfield to there just to get that Special gift for a Birthday, Wedding, or something just for me!! I still have a patchwork teddy bear that I bought 50 years ago!! I was there on Tuesday this past week and bought a basket that had a mirror in it. It was 75$. I Loved it. As I left and walked across the street I tripped on a very thin road reflector , that I've since found out, should not be placed in a cross walk. Fortunately my arm didn't break. But my mirror shattered. I took it to glass store. They wanted 75$ to replace the glass. I said no. And left. Today I took the Mirror back to the Garden Gallery. I talked to Chad the manager. I didn't really have to say much , he handed me a new mirror and said , Thank you for always shopping with us. And I'm glad you didn't break anything in your fall. Thank you Garden gallery , you have Wonderful gifts , well displayed. And such a great variety and always pleasant read more

It's very easy to get lost in this place. And I say that as a positive, not a negative. It's a sprawling property with several different buildings/alcoves/etc. each with a different set of inventory. If it's outdoors and you want it, chances are this place has it. Finding an employee can sometimes be tough, but they're helpful and very friendly when you do interact with them. I've never had a bad experience with any employee here (or fellow customer to be honest). Everyone just seems to be happy to be here. I don't blame them. Downside? Parking. It's in a busy touristy area so chances are you will have to circle around the area trying to find a place to park resulting in parking a little bit of a walk away. If you're buying anything big (or a lot of small things as has often been the case with us) it could cause a problem. If you're in the area, do yourself a favor and visit The Garden Gallery. You won't be disappointed. read more

What a magical place. The Garden Gallery is a combination of a garden (outdoors and indoors) and an arts gallery, in the heart of California's Morro Bay. We came here twice in July and August. Our second visit was on a sunnier day. Just beautiful throughout. See my photos. They got bonsai, small potted plants and flowers, and all sorts of house decors that are really creative. Even fun items like 100 dollar bill napkins! Everyone was very friendly; staff seemed to be happy to work here. We bought a small plant as a gift for a friend here. read more

Unique and worth a look around. This is basically a small shopping area with a few specialized vendors. It's nicely laid out with plenty of affordable succulents and small cacti. Their selection focuses on "pick of the litter" quality and the price isn't too bad considering location. If anything, it's a nice change compared to the other tourist-trap shops on the embarcadero.. - Pretty popular. Every time I drive down Main street the road is blocked because someone is loading up plants in the back of their Subaru. So rude... - Parking sucks on the weekend.. read more

Incredible spot. Great ambiance and wonderful selection of items, furniture, and plants. I'm from Southern California, so they offer a ton of succulents that are not often found there. If you are curious about them carrying a plant, you can show them a photo and they can check if they have it in the back. I picked up a Buddha's Temple succulent, since they're pretty rare where I am located. They also had a few small Red Pagoda, so I grabbed some of those too. Most of the staff are generally acquainted with basic succulent knowledge, but most are not fully versed in specialized care, so don't expect experts. Some of the staff are incredibly knowledgeable, so try asking for some of those people if you have any specific requests. That being said, all the staff here were super nice and fun to talk to. The taller gentleman with glasses is very good and had great service, as well as the spunky woman with white hair who put up with my excessive apologizing for specific plant requests. Both are fantastic people. 100% recommend walking around and getting something from this place! If you are walking around for the day, you can buy a plant and have them store it in the back for a day if needed. I was on a trip for some business so I bought a few plants for the days I was there and decided to pick them all up on the last day so they didn't have to sit in my hotel room. Just ask about it and you can write your name and number down on the receipt. read more

A wonderful gem perched in Morro Bay! After a day of strolling around Morro Bay and looking a variety of art shops, we came across this garden. From the outside, it appears like a patio with a variety of plants and beautiful pottery for sale. However, once you walk around the corner you see how massive the gallery actually is and how stunning it is. With a variety of open-air rooms, there is a lot of floor space that is beautifully designed. Each room flows into the next elegantly and helps you envision the products in your own home. The design throughout the entire gallery focuses on earth tones, nature, and bohemian-modern elements. It was easy to spend a lot of time inside the store just admiring how well everything was laid out and designed. It was a beautiful, peaceful place to visit. read more

You'll have more ideas than you've ever imagined in the main room with the most beautiful table settings, choices of cook books, nicknacks galore, women's shawls, jewelry, candles, stuffed animals, and on and on. This is higher end so higher price tags will align with your goods, just note that ahead of time. Definitely a higher quality and many treasures are made to order or even local artist selections. Such a terrific meandering between their several shops to gain insight towards terrific gardening ideas! Plants outside are often rare & ticket matches accordingly. Come to explore and have the most wonderful sensory experience! read more

We love this nursery and visit it every time we come to Morro Bay. They have such great decorating ideas and some cute gifts as well. This time, we were particularly attracted to a frog statue for our backyard. He kind of represents my husband's semi retirement this month. Hopefully he'll be able to enjoy some extra coffee and reading time now, just like this little fog. read more

Everything about The Garden Gallery is GLOOOOOORIOUS. The staff, the space, the inventory, and the location. We bought air plants at The Garden Gallery over a year ago, followed the advice of the staff on how to care for them, and they are still thriving. We go to San Luis Obispo once a year on business and always stop in Morro Bay specifically for The Garden Gallery and never leave empty handed or uninspired. They are definitely high up on my "when I win the lottery" list. read more

What a place! Garden Gallery is truly lovely! You can get lost perusing all the loveliness for hours, truly. May I State it's also beautifully expensive, but one never knows what can be found :-) I am a firm believer in want can outweigh price too :-)) At Garden Gallery you will find one of a kind planters, garden art, garden statues, in-house accessories; and, exotic plants/flowers. A lot of items are made by local artist, which I think is very cool. It's all beautiful and well crafted. Truly a place for plant, flower and art lovers alike :-) read more

Really amazing store with a mix of beautiful plants and all things gardening and decor. Fiancé and I walked right past it the first time but on way back we wandered in before closing and went nuts. We bought a few things but felt compelled to come back the next day before heading home on vacation. Picked up a cane lighting fixture for our mid century bedroom and some decorative pieces. Staff very helpful! I would make this a must see along with the Shells Store. read more

Great selection of different items. pricey. Love,all their succulents and different ideas for home design

First time at this orchard today had me in succulent heaven! There is an entire large showroom of various succulents and cacti and a good amount of air plants. I have an extensive variety of succulents in my home yet I was still able to find rare varieties to add to my collection. A nice starter plant costs $6 and the price is the same for most the varieties. There are also larger plants and multi-plant arrangements at various costs. The back has some pottery and accessories. I was able to purchase light colored "jade rocks" to add to my arrangements - this is not easy to come by in regular stores. Last but not least, the employee was happy to answer questions and bring out what I was looking for from the back. I highly recommend making a trip to this store whether you are starting from scratch or looking to add some fun new plants to your collection. read more
