Report
High prices, poor service. No refunds. Purchased a very large order of bushes and trees at the Bardstown Road location. Most of the bushes delivered to me were diseased. Manager refused refund or exchange. Quoted $50 for delivery but charged $75. I hand picked the specific plants I wanted. They were marked with red ribbon with my name. The plants delivered to me were diseased, not the ones I ordered. I was cheated by Frank Otte.

Spent $500 redoing my landscape with their Labor day sale, finally got everything planted (a lot of work!) And ended up being short 1 bush to complete my landscaping, the day after the sale ended. Called up, explained the situation, and asked nicely to see if they would make an exception and give me the sale price I'd paid for the other bushes. The guy unapologetically said flat out no and hung up the phone without any further discussion.. the rude response doesn't quite sit right with me considering I've been going up there regularly for years, just spent $500 with them, and got completely shrugged

Great place to go for all your gardening needs. The staff is great. They are knowledgeable and very friendly, and they are always more than willing to help you out. I'll never go anywhere else when I shop for plants and flowers.
