Over the past eight years, our homeowners association bought 21 new Chinese Push Pistache shade trees from Whitfill. Out of that 21 trees, we only lost one and Whitfill replaced that tree for free. They are an extremely fair nursery with prices to match. Thank you read more

Updated review: just as great as before! I love being at this nursery and could spend hours here. Decided to purchase a poinsettia from here rather than the big box store. There is always so much to see here and during December, the feel of the holidays/season is in full display. If you need a table arrangement made for you, there's a person (I swear who looked a little like Santa Claus--was that a dream?) who was busy making them. The Christmas cacti were so beautiful. I wanted to buy one since my really old one at home decided not to bloom this year! If you need Christmas or holiday spirit and live close by, you should visit! It's a beautiful place. read more

Everything we've gotten has either died, not thrived or not performed as described. For example: We paid a lot for three ocotillos and had them planted. Two died almost immediately and the third just hangs on by a thread. They were $250 each and $100 for delivery. We had two palo verde go down in a storm that had provided a lot of privacy. We bought replacements with the specific ask of them being fast growing to get tall and full quickly. Both of the $600 trees (that cost $500 each to deliver and plant) are barely as high as the fence four year later. A volunteer palo verde from a year ago is four times bigger than either of these expensive disappointments. Several other examples, but really the only thing we have bought there we aren't unhappy with is a ceramic turtle. So much money for so little outcome. read more

Holy moly, this place is massive. I had no idea what I was walking into. I came by just looking for some basic indoor houseplants, assuming there'd be a small section I could browse through quickly. But wow... I don't think I even covered a fraction of the space. This is definitely a "field trip" kind of place, somewhere you plan for, carve out time, bring water, wear comfy shoes, maybe pack a snack. It's that big. They did come by and ask if I needed help (which was nice!), and I automatically said I was just cruising through but in reality, I should've asked where the houseplants were. I think I was just too overwhelmed by how much there was to see. And honestly, I had the thought that even if I found something, I couldn't leave it in the car, it's way too hot right now to safely keep any plants in there. So, yeah. I'll absolutely be back, but next time I'm coming prepared with time, questions, a friend and a plan. read more

I visited the nursery to find house plants to replace some that didn't make it. :-/ The grounds are filled with outdoor plants, and there's a greenhouse filled with house plants. And to my surprise, Ms. Rebecca Whitfill extended an invitation to tour the nursery!! Oh boy, was I excited! We hopped into a golf cart, and off we went. She showed me a variety of trees and landscaping needs. Ms. Rebecca also shared the history of the nursery. What a treat! So adorable and friendly. All of the staff were friendly and helpful. I left with plenty of plants, tips, and memories! Accessible entrance. read more

On the recommendation of a friend, I visited Whitfill's in North Phoenix about two weeks ago. I have been on a hunt for some nice-looking pots. Most places I had been to had just a few colors (white, blue, terracotta), but as I drove by last week, I saw an array of colorful pots. Taking that friend's advice, I went back and was not disappointed. I purchased three pots, and the staff could not have been more helpful. Bonus points for their ability to deliver, which I have discovered is not commonplace. Frank walked the pot area with me and tagged everything for delivery. Knowing they soon would be delivering my pots, I thought now was the time to purchase the shade tree I have been wanting. So, last week I went back to Whitfill's. Billy took me around the lot and gave me some great advice. After talking with him, I decided against my original plan and went with a different tree. Aside from what appears to be a genuine willingness to help their customers, they appear to be a full-service nursery, as when they deliver everything, they are going to plant the tree and the one vine I purchased. Knowing it will be done right and that they stand behind their product/work is reassuring. Today, the pots, vine, and tree were delivered and planted. The crew could not have been more helpful. They were thorough, placed everything where I wanted them, and explained the care for my tree. And, they cleaned everything up! They have an incredible selection of flowers, potted plants, vegetables, herbs, and succulents. They appear to have it all, plus everything you need to plant and maintain your garden. I have not had great luck in the past with a number of nurseries, but I think I have found a winner! And, based on the number of people that were there today, so have others. read more

I didn't get her name but she's the granddaughter of the Whitfill's. She was so helpful! I wanted plants to attract hummingbirds and she helped me decide which ones would work best for my yard. Now it's up to the hummingbirds ***Update! The very next day I had hummingbirds in my yard and I've seen them everyday since!! Obviously she knows her stuff, thank you Whitfill nursery!! read more

Excellent nursery with excellent prices. They have herbs, veggies, fruit trees, indoor plants, outdoor plants, shrubs, flowers, vines, etc. They have it all. It's a huge nursery. If you need help, there is staff on hand. I bought a 1 gallon Star Jasmine for $18, mind you it's 4ft tall! It's like a little tree. Impressive pricing. They also have pots, mulch, glass hummingbird feeders (bought one!) among other things. But don't take my word for it, come and have a look! They have their own parking lot which is nice so you don't have to worry about parking. read more

A lovey gem in the community! The people are knowledgeable and offer great service. The prices are not cheap but quality is their product.

Careful getting plants here. I have an outrageous infestation of whiteflies on my patio (which is also the entrance/front door to my apartment). I'm not kidding, this infestation is crazy. I did research, upon research, to figure out how they got here. Conclusion; it's very very highly likely it's because of the plants I got from here. I'm so sad. I'll only be getting pots and such from here (they are decently priced at least.) read more

Good service, great plants & trees. Good friendly family atmosphere. I really like this company!

I really like this nursery. It's been a tradition for a several years to get a Christmas tree here. They have a free hot chocolate, popcorn, candy canes and cookies to enjoy while selecting your tree. However, this year the cheapest tree started at $149. Last year I remember trees starting at $119. I understand some years trees go up in price due to environmental conditions. However, the next day I was at Lowe's and saw a very equivalent fresh trees for less than $100. I really like the Christmas tree buying experience at Whitfill. Yet, next Christmas I will look at Lowe's first. read more

Truthfully, I will tell you I grew up and shopped at Baker's on 40th st for years. Those of you who shopped there know they had great customer service. I don't find that at Whitfill. They will help you to a certain degree but not much more than that. I have never had much luck with the plants I buy there. So, I just go elsewhere. read more

Had a wonderful experience ordering a tree to be delivered for a housewarming gift. Stephanie was a huge help going above and beyond. I live in California and she sent pictures for me to approve before purchasing. We even did FaceTime to look at different pots. Very professional. read more

Great selection of healthy plants for indoors and outdoors. Although we had trouble finding staff in the beginning, once we found an employee, they did an outstanding job with suggesting the perfect plant, the ideal pot, etc. They even volunteered plant care instructions and got the huge plant into our car. Turned out that the best part of our morning was the super helpful staff! read more

They have parrots and I noticed during the summer that they really don't look good or healthy. The food container for the parrots is next to their cage - I opened it and there were roaches inside. Saw someone else recently left a review for this same thing - sad it hasn't gotten any better. Unfortunately despite this being a good plant nursery and place to buy pots, I can't shop there knowing they have animals on display like this. read more

Whitfill is a LONG time Phoenix family nursery. Their selection and knowledgeable staff make this a reliable place to fill your garden, decorate for Christmas, and plant a tree that will be a lifetime addition to your home. I bought a Chinese Pastiche for my kids house today. It will be shading their house for the next two generations. Their pricing is on the high side, but your are paying for good quality and service here at Whitfill read more

My class had a great time on a fieldtrip here. Joy, our guide was knowledgeable, generous and fun! As we toured over seven acres, she went above and beyond sharing facts and answering questions. We loved the talking parrots, dinosaur statues, the greenhouse and the huge variety. She made plants interesting to my students helping to foster a love for nature. They each went home with a little plant of their own. We will definitely go back!!! read more

great trees, great staff, even greater value for the money spent. I highly recommend Paul at Witfill Nursey to guide you towards your planting goals!! read more

If you need anything for your yard or garden you can very probably get it here. They have an excellent selection of trees, especially mature citrus trees. If you need help getting around, you can get a ride on a golf cart. The prices seem quite reasonable but I'm not an expert on tree prices. Go here, you won't be disappointed. read more

The parrots are being mistreated and abused. They are picking at their feathers and kept in horrendous conditions. Please find a rescue who will take them in, it is such a gross display of animal neglect and kills the experience of plant shopping. read more

My brother and sister in law were on the hunt for a Christmas tree and wanted to shop more locally (and not in a parking lot). My kids and I were happy to tag along since we are regretfully part of the artificial tree club. Whitfill was a wonderful experience! There was hot cocoa and popcorn to snack on while wondering through fresh wreaths, poinsettias, centerpieces, and lots of really beautiful trees. The selection was incredible. The trees were available in all sizes (height and width) to fit any sized space. They also smelled amazing. Being from the Pacific Northwest but having lived here the last 20+ years, I always love a walk through the aromatic trees. It must be even more magical at night with all the lights on. Once you pick a tree, someone will help you with a cart and take the stand off. We watched them chainsaw off the bottoms of the trunk to make them nice and level and then take them out to people's car. All the employees we interacted with delightful. The woman giving out the LED candy canes was a doll. She did tell my boys not to fight each other with them but, let's be honest, they could resist. Not her fault. I think every kid I saw jabbed someone else with one of those things. They are meant to spike into the ground or in a yard, but it was too tempting for kids not to use it like a weapon. I think getting them in the daytime made them feel more toy like because they didn't light up (also didn't come with batteries). The part that actually bothered me was that people who received the candy canes just took the tags off and left them all over the ground. Why ruin such a beautiful place when there are trash cans all around? We also walked the rest of the property and saw the parrots and peacocks. The greenhouse felt like a jungle and the kids really got a kick out of the raptor in the tall plants. Will definitely be recommending to anyone looking for a Christmas tree, holiday decorations, or all my green thumbs friends all year long. read more

One of my favorite nurseries in the Valley. Family owned and has been around for YEARS!! The staff is pleasant and very knowledgeable. They don't make fun of you or belittle you when you ask those "dumb questions, like "what can survive in full sun with no water!" haha The property is huge, so even if running in for one thing be sure to make time to walk around and enjoy it all. From the plants, planters, trees, there are also birds to enjoy! Plenty of seeds, garden trinkets, soil, etc as well! The pricing is great and I just feel better paying a local family based business than spending money at a big box store. Also, they do have a hand washing station for everyone to use - along with sanitizer. read more

I trekked over here from the west valley, because where are all the (read ANY) nurseries on that side of town?!?! Anywho, I live in a cold state and my parents live here. Over their almost 20 years of living here, I have developed a love of cacti and succulents, and it is a rare trip that I don't come home with either a plant or some Talavera pottery, or both! I was looking specifically for a Joshua tree to experiment with at home (cold hardiness). I needed it to be budget friendly and to be able to fit in my car. Whitfill's unfortunately, had neither, but a very nice man took the time to show me an alternative plant that was seemingly more cold hardy, and was actually the right size. Sadly, it wasn't within the parameters of my "testing budget". I did see quite a few other plants that piqued my interest, but I only had so much room in my car, so sadly (I'm being sarcastic here), I'll have to come back on another trip to Phoenix. The variety of not only species, but sizes of the plants was incredible, with some that I had never even heard of, and some that I was super envious of, knowing my plants at home will never get that big. 6/2023 read more

Very knowledgeable, kind, and caring staff. They really know their stuff and have great product.

For the 3rd year in a row we have found the perfect Tree! Their Trees are fresh and beautiful, lasting the entire Season. The delivery is efficient. Overall, the quintessential holiday experience. read more

Do you like plants? Don't go to Whitfill as an adventure on a random Sunday. It would be like being a dog-lover and going to the pound "just to see what's over there." You end up coming home with a new dog (or two new 8-year-old Kumquat trees, in our case). My husband unfortunately has a new vice, and it's plants. He keeps secretly going to Whitfill Nursery and coming home with new plants. I'm not sure if he's going there with any specific ideas in mind, but our backyard is becoming a green paradise. We now own three kumquat trees, a full garden, a Costco rolling planter box filled with more garden plants, and I'm already hearing discussions about removing some oleanders to add some more Whitfill plants. Is any of this necessary? No. No, it's not. Is it pleasant? Okay, maybe. Anyway, the staff at Whitfill were great; we used their delivery and planting service last time too, and the team that showed up was very helpful in some watering tips and ways to improve our wine barrel planter boxes. We even met the owner, who introduced us to our two newest Kumquat acquisitions (haven't named them quite yet). Great place to get some new trees or vegetables for your garden. read more

Despite the identifier in our Yelp account, we live in Phoenix. We heard the radio show for Whitfill and after a few episodes decided to reach out to hire them for extensive landscape design and gardening assistance as we remodel our home. We could scarcely reach anyone by phone, they practically never called back, and nobody took an interest in our project enough to respond to us. Today, when I tried to visit their website, it is locked down as "Suspended." This experience gives us the feeling that Whitfill is about to go out of business and tried funding a radio show to save itself. Sad, because the radio show is so interesting. read more

Whitfill's, a place to learn, grow and find that lifelong enjoyment of being connected to the world we live in by spending more time in the garden! Being longtime radio listener's of The Whitfill Garden Show, Sat & Sun 7 - 9 am, we went to Whitfill's in February to ask Brian for some advice on why the lemons on our tree looked so wrinkled and were barely eatable? The problem was that the whole tree went to rootstock. The solution was to cut it down to just a stump and patiently wait and turn it into a cocktail tree using a grafting technique called T- Budding. In late April, Brian graciously taught me and many others this technique and sent all of us home with fresh branches to try our luck with. It's now early June and I'm Happy to say that with Brian's direction, that luck has now turned into an exciting new skill! Brian talks very proudly of his Grandfather who has created a cocktail tree with 22 varieties of fruit on it which he used to cook with. I recently asked Brian if he could provide me with a few more branches to keep going with and he generously surprised me with twice as many varieties to continue with. I just have to say Thank You Brian for sharing with me today the knowledge and enthusiasm passed down from your Grandfather!! It's truly our pleasure to know you and visit your fine nurseries as we turn our house of three years into our Dream Home! Houseplants, Plum, Peach, Apricot, advice on newly seeded Bermuda grass, rose's, proper watering and fertilizing, tools, and supplies adds up to a lot of work. We appreciate All that You and Your Team provide. Thank You for making it so much fun! Sincerely, Frank & Alexandra read more

I can't believe it took me this long to discover this place! I will never purchase another plant from Home Depot again (how bad is that anyway?) It's like a garden destination- beautiful trees, flowers (indoor and out), bedding flowers; seed variety like you wouldn't believe and plenty of benches around to just sit and enjoy this place. There is a 'home' good building as well as anything you'd ever need in your garden. They have gorgeous pottery as well as unique artwork for your yard. There were plenty of staff roaming around to help as well as they were super friendly. The parrots were gorgeous as well! Prices were very reasonable too- this is our new 'go to' for anything 'green' related. read more

Beautiful nursery. A little pricy but the staff are super nice and very helpful. Highly recommend.

Ohh, I just LOVE this nursery in central Phoenix! They have colorful peacocks roaming the property, kitties, and more. Bonus: My son loves coming here, too! I love how it is organized. It is so easy to find what you need and they have LOADS of plants, trees, flowers, cacti and more to choose from. Their inventory is always fantastic, which I love! We recently purchased a vining bougainvillea and it looks GORGEOUS on the front of our home. We also purchased blue plumbago shrubs and the color is just lovely (like a periwinkle blue). They were tough to find, but Whitfill had plenty of them! There is always someone ready and available to help which is so valuable. I ALWAYS need help + have questions on watering, etc. We will be back soon to purchase ~30 petite oleanders and bougainvillea shrubs to plants along our back wall. See you soon! read more
