Coming here used to be a joyous occasion for my husband and I, but it was sold to a monster. We…read morewent there once at that time, and it was a shadow of the greatness it had been. Gone were the seasonal parties and sales, gone was the fun and whimsey of the place. And the people who worked there, the real stars were mistreated by the monster and some left. Now the monster is gone, but this place hasn't come back to what it was. It seems that they don't have the same energy and vibe. But the plants aren't as vast as they were in the past. I will try them again. I was touched by the stories of people who took plants home to care for them when the monster closed the business. I'm glad that Annie is working with a group of employees to get the business back up and running. It's just that now, they are a promising shell of a once great business. I'm pulling for a better experience on my next visit. I'm confident that will happen.

We've spent thousands of dollars at Golden Gate Palms over the years, but our recent experience was…read morea disappointing letdown. I purchased two avocado trees, hand-picked by their staff, at an outrageous $375 each, thinking the trees would be mature and produce fruit sooner. Within months, one tree overproduced and died, clearly a sign of a bad tree or bad advice. When I reached out to Gary for help, he refused to offer a replacement or even a reasonable discount, showing zero care for customer loyalty. His prices are absurdly inflated--Home Depot offers far better quality trees at a third of the cost. Save your money and shop elsewhere; Golden Gate Palms isn't worth its premium price.

The location is slightly off the highway but on a very busy street. There's only street parking available so if you're in need for anything heavy - I'd suggest parking as close the store as possible. When I walked in, the store was brightly lite and very organized. I was thrilled to see a lot of the things that I needed was in store so I had to figure out what was priority on my shopping list since some of the reagents were originally pricey. The gentlemen that helped me didn't say much but was able to suggest a few options that were similar to what I needed but I politely declined and got the items that was within my daily budget. One thing that I was worried about was getting persuaded into purchasing something that was way overpriced and something that I didn't need but I never felt that here. The service was straight forward and I was in and out within fifteen minutes. The prices here are relatively similar to what you could find online so It's great to know that your monies will be going to a local shop rather than big competitors.

Went in today and they were closed an hour early. Seems strange to me - I don't understand it…read more Usually they close at 8pm on a Sunday but today they closed at 7pm. I've been to this location many times. Usually a good experience. Bought a couple fruit trees from this exact locations 10 years ago and think about this store every time I eat fruit from them. They are already large and I feel like they turn a house into a home. A place you really enjoy much more. I am big into landscaping. I like mature, beautiful landscape. Kitchens and paint I'm less into - I feel like these things no matter what they are within 5 or 10 years they are old, outdated and in need of redoing. The same can't be said about trees - they only get better and more valuable with age. Had a realtor once tell me that a 5 or 10 year old kitchen is just as bad as a 50 year old kitchen. Neither sells - and with trends ever changing - I wouldn't get too hung up with it. I know some friends that put so much effort into what paint on their walls looks like or what brand cabinets they have. Then they want the CHEAPEST car possible to put their wife and kids in. I just don't get it. Was a bummer today. I saw the Christmas tree lot here all closed and some of the trees inside I wanted to take a closer look at. The variety of Christmas trees here was very nice.
