A lovely place full of life and friendly employees always willing to answer my questions! This place has two female exotic birds named Ruby and Blue who are interesting as well as four cats including acute Ginger one who meows a lot.
It also has various different flowers and plants and is located in such a beautiful location!
Overall it's a beautiful place with lots of life!
PS. Don't get your car toaded lol

I would not recommend ordering soil from here, especially the top dressing - I had a bad experience with the quality of material. Top dressing should be finely screened, and free of contaminants to make it easy to spread on the lawn. What I got was full of medium and small rocks, full on balls of clay the size of my fist and large and small clumps - all of which should not be in top dressing. Not good quality in the least, I'm not even sure if this is supposed to be top dressing like I ordered, looks like they are either use poor grade top soil as top dressing, or they delivered the wrong material, either way, it's wrong and not screened properly. Now I have rocks and small balls of clay all over my lawn.

Only good thing I can say was that delivery was on time and placed where I asked.

Paul took his time to lay out our whole garden and help design it all. Even after we cashed out after closing time, he offered to help us load our car! He gave us excellent service and has a wealth of horticultural knowledge. 10/10 would recommend!

Ordered 2 yards of black mulch to be delivered on Thursday and it showed up at 4 pm on Friday. When you call for follow up on your order they have no way of tracking your online order without calling internally to see where your order is. Really that’s the best internal system you have?

When driver arrived he said they lost my order since my instructions I included with my online order was missing for him on where to drop the mulch off.

Based on my experience I’d be careful using their online order system

We found this garden center after my usual mini cascade geraniums, despite being brought in on cold nights and watered and fertilized as usual, seemed to turn brown and die quickly. My husband called garden centers and the staff at this place was phenomenal, right down to texting us photos of the plants before we headed out from Cambridge.

In the future I will gladly make the 45 minute drive to visit here. The employees went above and beyond, seeing the cats throughout was also sweet... And the Goldendoodle by the cash sealed the deal (I am an animal lover).

My new plants are healthy and both contain the little white packets that are usually mites that help keep plants healthy. I buy these same baskets every year because they perform so well in full sun and look amazing right through to frost in the fall.

Will definitely be back.

As someone with a black thumb I typically dread the annual trip to the nursery. However I was so relieved to get help from Paul who really took the time to help me make an informed decision on a variety of trees we chose to plant in our backyard. His passion and knowledge really made all the difference. We also had the team deliver and plant for us and were quite happy with the result!

I'm a new customer to Meadowville and I'm not impressed with the grass sod I purchased twice. Initially, on Victoria Day Monday, I purchased 24 rolls of sod which I was aware was delivered 3 days prior. The previous days were cool and it looked healthy. 16 later, after faithfully watering morning and evening, 4 rolls were unsalvageable and I decided to replace them. I dropped by Meadowville and was told they received the new sod the previous day. Trusting them, I purchased the 4 rolls and replaced the 4 at home. These were almost as bad as the original 4. I doubt the supplier bamboozled Meadowville. I should of driven out to one of the sod farms towards Cambridge . I do like the collection of plants and trees in the nursery, but am wary of purchasing from Meadowville in case I have warranty issues.

I for the first time came to Meadowville Garden and I was eager to find someone to give some advise about my garden. I was very lucky to run into Paul, a very nice, enthusiastic person. With the help of his expertise, I spent $400+ to get what I exactly wanted with 10% discount. I will come again when I need any kind of plants.
