Terra Sol Garden Center - Santa Barbara, California

This was by far my favorite nursery of the three I visited in the area. I was mainly interested in succulents. They had a large selection. I like all the different varieties of pots, terracotta its and garden ornaments. They also had a large area for house plants too. They also have bins for of rocks and glass as top dressing. I picked up a few pounds of the ones I liked.

Definitely plan to come back when I have more time!

I was looking for a birthday gift and decided on a Monstera plant. Eric was incredibly knowledgeable about house plants and went above and beyond to help me. He propped the plant up with a bamboo stick at no extra cost and even cleaned it to make it extra presentable. The attention to detail and the extra mile he went truly impressed me. This place is amazing!

Succulents and more! Every time I go to Terra sol, I always see a plant that I've never seen before. As a landscaper, when I'm shopping for succulents I'm coming here. They have all types of plants, fruit trees and so much more. I've purchased many items many times and the staff are always amazing. Always eager to help and offer suggestions. Always helpful with questions and loading the heavy plants, planting soil, and pots. Very active staff and they do special orders for any plant faster than I’ve experienced anywhere. Incredible! The art they do there is inspiring and creative. Thank you very much!

This is such a fun garden center. The staff are friendly and the plants are well taken care of and beautiful. The prices are bit on the higher side, but I think this is warranted as the plants are all healthier and better cared for than you will find at home Depot. They also have a wide selection of plants. If you enjoy plants and are in the market for some, come give this place a try.

AVOID. Had a TERRIBLE experience with a recent plant purchase. The plant was a birthday gift, and upon bringing it home noticed it was bone dry. Once home and watered the plant completely deteriorated over the next few days. Leaves turned necrotic and dropped until finally we decided this wasn't right and we tried to return it. BIG MISTAKE. The staff had nothing but blame for what WE did wrong, even citing conflicting issues like too much light and too little light, clearly not knowing what they are talking about (or even bothering to find out we have a home full of similar plants that are thriving in the light conditions). When they refused to refund, I took it home and inspected the root "system." This was clearly a barely-rooted cutting, that they let dry to the point of shock, then let us take it home. We will never shop here again. They could have kept locals as customers by just refunding the $10 or so dollars (or even just replacing with the same plant) but instead they decided to be condescending and rude. They have lost any future sales from us and will lose more when I spread the word of this terrible treatment to my plant loving and buying circle of friends in town. So sad that businesses can't just do the right thing and accept they *just maybe* made a mistake. Apparently at Terra Sol the customer is always wrong.

Go to this place! The utahraptor has acclimated to its current environment and is thriving.

Terra Sol Garden products, staff and delivery are great! They even calculated the exact amount of soil for a hot tub sized 'pot' for a very needy cramped and root constrained cycad up-potting project.

Excelemt selection if you're into succulents and cacti as well as plants for edible landscaping. If in the area its worth a few extra miles to add to your trip.for a visit to both here and Santa Barbara Succulents which is much different with less selection but lower pricing but equally worth a stop for all gardening nerds, succulent collectors and plant lovers alike. I will definitely be back to this nursery next time I'm close by and I'm sure they will have lots of cool more plants to check out again.

I have a weakness for houseplants and have been to every nursery in SB. This one is just superior in every way. The selection blows everyone else away. Good pottery too! I’ve spent soooooo much there. I go in for a couple plants and leave with the mother load.
