West Seattle Nursery & Garden Center

I adore this nursery. I live very close by, so I will often pop in just to walk around and be surrounded by their extensive collection of indoor and outdoor plants, and to get inspired for my next purchase! Twice now, I have come across plants on Pinterest that I add to my wish list, and both times this store has had exactly what I'm looking for. I can count on them for anything, and the staff have always been incredibly friendly!

As a customer, you MUST do your research and know what to look for and inspect your nursery trees. I didn't know what to look for when I bought this japanese maple from the West Seattle Nursey. But, I've since learned that nursery trees have common problems, such as being burried too deep in nursery pots, and being over fertilized to appear larger. I got this tree that was buried too deep in its nursery pot for a while. Unfortunately I was too excited, and naive when I got it home in early March and I potted the tree in a soil/medium pine and fir bark mixture. But this scar was facing a direction that I never look at the tree from. I cut the high roots, but I totally missed the scar by not inspecting the trunk all the way around, and facing it away from view. Unfortunately the tree was blown over during a windy day in early May. I stood it back up within about 30 minutes and tied it up, but it succumbed to transplant shock from the exposed roots. I recently moved it, from the sunny spot it was in, to a shadier spot to recover. In the new spot the scar is visible from the path it's by, and I noticed it but, unfortunately, now I'm 14 days past the 90 day 50% refund window for tree

Everyone in this center worked so hard to help us. They were friendly, approachable, and very kind. They even gave us some free recycled pots to grow our chilies in! What impressed me most was how eager they were to help us out, even when the nursery was bustling with people. The plant selection is good, too! I loved their native plants. They had some rarely seen species available. I live all the way on the other side of the city, but I'll definitely be back. Thanks for a wonderful Easter Sunday outing, guys!

Always a great selection of plants! Looking forward to getting new mint varietals in the summer months. All my mints purchased from here have done great!
