Farmington Gardens

This is my favorite place on the west side to buy plants. They have a huge selection and really fair prices. The website has lots of good information and allows you to check plant availability daily. They are busy but yet very willing to help with questions. A customer card will allow you to choose free merchandise or dollars off of your purchase once you reach a certain dollar amount within the given year. They have a drop off point for unwanted plastic planting pots and they will see that they are recycled. more

I drive about an hour to shop at Farmington Gardens and it's worth it! My first visit was frustrating at first because I couldn't find it... but once it came it sight and I could see the acres of plants well...I just melted! Oh my, they have not only nearly every plant I could ask for, but they carry each particular plant in different stages...from a small pots to full grown plants and huge tree's. You can get flowering plants, shrubs, trees, hanging baskets, veggie starts, lattice pieces, and any information you could think of. They have a large wall of pamphlets you can take that cover all different kinds of plants and their care. Farmington Gardens also has a great website and incredible specials and sales. Definitely plan to be there for atleast a few hours!! Even if your just "window" shopping. more

We love Farmington Gardens and have been shopping there for a few years now. They are always super helpful with any questions you might have. All you have to do is ask! They carry a wonderful selection of annuals, perennials, shrubs, trees, and supplies. There inventory list is provided on their website, which I have found to be very helpful. They also have helpful gardening information on their website as well. Farmington Gardens runs specials frequently, so check back often! more

This nursery and garden center is a little off the beaten path, but well worth the extra driving time. Their selection is one of the best I have found on the West side and their prices are very competitive. They carry all types of plants, ground covers, trees and shrubs, as well as seeds, veggies/herbs when in season, and supplies. A nice selection and every time I have been, the plants themselves are healthy looking and nicely trimmed (I have been to some nurseries where plants look unkempt and unwatered!). They have recently introduced a frequent buyer program, which you should sign up for if you plan on visiting a few times. They do not sell or share your information, so no worries about getting on a bunch of mailing lists. more

I drive a little further to shop at Farmington Gardens. I am new to gardening and they are always willing to give me advice. Don't forget to sign up for the frequent buyer program....no spam or junk mail...just a great deal! more
