Colorful Garden Center - Agoura Hills, California

Deborah Klara Kauffmann

LOVE their plants and the people working there. I bought five roses there three years ago, and despite being attacked by pests and critters, cut down aggressively in the midst of growing season (by my trigger happy gardener, lol), torrential rainstorms, and extreme heat over those last years, they are all thriving. I think the key is to tell them about the conditions in your garden - the soil, sun, water, etc. And if you're unsure about soil conditions, bring a little bucket from your garden and get advice - they are brilliant with that!

BEST Nursery in LA. Huge collection of gorgeous trees, shrubs and flowering plants. Beautifully kept. Looks like a fairy garden. Far bigger selection than your typical garden center. The majority of the reviews are five stars. The few that are not I would say have some empathy. The owner has been there for over three decades and has worked hard to build a very difficult business. He has a little bit of a mobility challenge and is no doubt in pain. He was more than courteous to me and whatever extra in depth info I need I can Google it.
Highly recommend for all your garden needs. Here is my Bougie. I will be repotting her soon. Only $35.00. Healthy and much bigger than big box stores. Thanks so much!

I used this place several years ago and the plants seemed to die very quickly. I decided to give it another try. I spent hundreds of dollars there (my mistake) and a number of the plants died right away. Our gardener said that they were in bad shape. I called the owner and he wouldn't do anything about it. Stay away from this place. The plants at Walmart are better quality.

I just saw the response from the owner. I have a drip system and a gardener who comes by several times a week. The issue is the plants at this place and the owner. Awful.

Selection of plants should probably get a 4.5. Quality of plants should probably get a 4. Pricing should probably get a 3. But the lack of customer service, and the absolute rudeness of the owner would receive one star at best. I’ve lived in the area for over 30 years and have probably gone here a half a dozen times for convenience sake only. Of course, quality changes in the very hot heat of the summer when some of these reviews were written. I can accept that. But the only consistency I’ve seen is how unhelpful and rude the man who owns this Nursery continues to be decade after decade.

Owner knows his stuff and yes, he flies by his own set of rules. But the plants I got were nice and hardy. And the BEST garden to car customer service!

If you go there knowing that it's not Home Depot and while it's not - his prices are fair - then you can have a good time picking out plants and asking about the background and usage of each plant. -- That kind of service is not going to happen at Home Depot.

I liked the fact that the owner and the worker shadowed me while shopping so I could get quick on the spot answers and pricing. The guy does know the prices in his head. He'll give you a quote and if it's not what you want to spend - just keep walking and looking.

Because they were shadowing me, I could get them to grab plants and put them on the cart - pretty much a concierge service if you ask me.

After checking out - they loaded it in my car and protected the back area with heavy duty paper. * Your not going to get Home Depot to do that for you either! Home Depot has not had the thick paper available for the last 7 years!

I like the owner. He's spunky. Loves his nursery/his business and maybe going there is not everyone's cup of tea. I'm going to definitely go back for more plants and the great service.

Oh - - and he loves America! Me too!

I went to this nursery last Saturday with my wife who had been there once. I brought in $1000 in cash as it was my budget for our new house down the street and the owner was so rude and obnoxious I am glad I didn’t spent one dollar. First the feeling from the beginning was very odd. No one to offer any help but this big men at the entrance starring at us in a very unfriendly way. I kept asking him about prices on different plants as almost no plants have prices and while he seemed to think about the price each time I asked him why wasn’t there price marked on the pots like most other nursery ? He answered prices fly away with the wind And then, in a very obnoxious tone said there are no prices because 90% of his customers don’t ask . Waoooo!!!
Given the fact he gave us the impression to annoy him we left and WILL NEVER RETURN!!

Wonderful selection of plants shrubs and small trees and a wealth of information! Any questions I have are eagerly answered in detail! The guys really know their stuff and are extremely helpful in choosing exactly the best things for me. I get my herbs and vegetables there every year and they are fantastic the flowers I've gotten from there have had wonderful longevity and grow beautifully. If you want a custom plant shopping experience this is definitely the place to go! Support a locally owned business! Come to Agoura Hills colorful garden Center it's right off the 101 at Chesebro
