Willow Ridge Garden Center Reviews

This garden center is amazing! Huge selection of pots from tiny to extra large. Lots of fun shopping for plant related accessories. Large variety of plants. The ones I bought from them have thrived. The only negative comment is that some items are on the pricey side.

Didn't buy anything, came for the trick or treating event. Looked around a lot and they had some really pretty and cool items. Loved the ponds and fish! The staff were very nice and in character. Might come back to shop sometime 😊

Alisha, we're so glad you came out for the Trick-or-Treat Trail! Our crew had a blast getting into character, so we're happy you enjoyed it! And those koi are pretty good at stealing the show. We hope you'll come back and explore some more soon. There's always something fun to discover around here!

Willow Ridge is the best place to go for landscaping and garden supplies! They also do open house events for the whole family, like the old fashioned Christmas and the Trick-or-Treat Trail. And they have a few pretty cool Coy ponds out front, too! Thanks for all you do!

Stephanie, thank you so much! We love hearing that you enjoy all the fun stuff around here, not just the plants! We have just as much fun putting these events together as everyone does attending them. And of course, we think the koi ponds are pretty cool too! Thanks for being part of what makes Willow Ridge so special!

Great place some of the koi fish are a bit small and some misfed. If you get tokens feed the side ponds! I feel horid for the beta smallest cage in my eyes should at least be 3-4 gals amazing healthy plants with mistreated fish

Thank you for sharing your feedback. The well-being of the animals in our care is important to us, and we appreciate your concern.

Our koi ponds are home to fish of various ages and sizes, and our team regularly monitors their health, feeding, and water quality. We take great pride in caring for them and providing an experience where families can enjoy these beautiful fish.

As for Fabian, our betta, he has certainly become a beloved little member of the Willow Ridge family! While we regularly monitor his health and water quality, we're also reviewing his habitat to ensure we're providing the best possible environment for him.

We're glad you enjoyed our plant selection, and we appreciate you taking the time to visit Willow Ridge.

Love Willow Ridge and staff This place is not inexpensive. Certainly on the high side in most items (unless they're on sale or close out). That said, they are of high quality which I appreciate and I frequent here often. The selection is very good in terms of shrubs and perennials in particular whether for shade parts on or full sun. They've got answers for you.

Always an excellent experience. Very knowledgeable and willing to help. We have purchased 9 fruit trees, 5+ rose bushes, and countless other plants and have only ever had 1 tree fail which they covered and replaced.
