Ive been going to Schaefers for years. Yes, they are a bit higher priced than the big box stores; and there is a reason for that. The big box places can command lower prices because they are buying for multiple locations (ie; Walmart, Home Depot....) while Schaefers grows their flowers and takes great care in making sure the flowers and trees are taken care of the way they are supposed too be. I just ordered a couple of wrist corsages for a daddy/daughter dance and will gladly pay $5 more for each piece just to support a family owned, local business. I hear people complain about big box stores taking over neighborhoods but arent willing to shop at a local store that has better quality flowers, and supports a family. I obviously dont know the numbers behind it but Id be willing to bet they are profiting about the same as a Home Depot. And have you ever been to this place at Christmas and looked out at all the poinsettias? It takes a lot of man power to keep those plants looking great. And At their own cost they bring in Mr. & Mrs. Claus for your own free pictures. Ive stood in line for 2 hours some years just to see most people leave without buying a single item. It would break my heart to see this place go out of business; so please consider them (Even if you have to spend a few extra dollars) when buying flowers or plants. And when you get your free picture with Santa (That would cost $20 at the mall) maybe buy an ornament or 2 each year. I cant speak about the customer service because Ive never been treated with nothing but courtesy while there. I would just say that it is impossible to know what any single person is going through; the person that gave you poor customer service may be having an extremely bad day and unfortunately took it out on you. Im sure given another chance they would do things differently. Ill say it again - please support locally owned businesses when you can - its good for the community.

My friend and I were there to look at boutonnieres. We had never gone flower shopping before and were quite excited. This was the worst experience. I can not explain how rude the staff was to us. They laughed at us (not with us but at us) because we didnt know what we exactly looking for and were quite curt. A b-word comes to mind for the full attitude we received from the lady helping us. It was horrible. The lady eventually ended up yelling at us instead trying to be helpful. Needless to say, we left without buying anything and I will never return to that store. Absolutely the worst customer service experience ever. The local grocery store was very happy help us and we had a much better customer experience. Im completely flabbergasted that we had a better experience shopping at the grocery store than a flower shop. So if you need flowers for a special occasion, skip this store and just go to Jewel. Horrible, horrible, horrible.

I stop in here often on the way to my mothers house. But today is the last time I will stop here. I spent time picking out my selection of plants and stood at the check out desk for 20 mins while each time a clerk said "whos next?" I said "Im next" 3 times and was ignored every time. They were waiting on people standing behind me, are they blind or stupid or both? I walked out without being given a chance to complete my purchase. I will never be back.

Expansive greenhouses as well as outdoor displays offer a comprehensive selection of plants, landscaping ornament and gardening supplies at reasonable prices. Knowledgeable and friendly staff. Seminars and How-To sessions are useful and fun. Great place to rejuvenate on a lunch hour browsing tthrough varied peaceful and fragrant settings.

This place is huge!!! You wouldnt know it from the street but there is seriously a lot in there. Quality of their plants is great and proves are about in line with what you would expect. I prefer coming here over a lowes or Home Depot any day! Support local business and check this place out. You will not be disappointed!

I recently needed to have a raffle prize designed and packaged for an event. Schaefers design staff was extremely helpful and accommodated my short timeline. The service was excellent and the product was SO beautiful. I got so many compliments on the arrangement. I would definitely recommend them!

I placed an order for local delivery, online from out of state. Order was placed at 8:30 a.m. for same day delivery. The order was delivered within 6 hours. The recipient was very pleased. Thanks, Schaefer Greenhouses Inc. for making both of our Mondays better.

This is the place to go. They have a wide selection of plants and theyre all very healthy and robust. Much better than big box. And the staff can answer your specific questions and make suggestions. You wont be disappointed

Family owned, local, and quality. Schaefers has one of the longest and best reputations in the business! Beautiful design work, friendly staff, and something for everyone.

They have a decent selection of both annual and perennial plants. We also ordered 6 yards of mulch and it was delivered on time and no doubt we got 6 yards and then some.

I had a special occasion come out of no where and needed some flowers delivered in a three hour window, and not only did they deliver, the flowers are beautiful!

Tons of beautiful flowers and all. They are totally over priced. Everyone i speak with says the same thing. Highly over priced!!

Great service ! They had done a complete bouquet for me last minute and it came out amazing. I only had to wait 30min!!

Ruth Mazurek

Great nursery with good quality plants. Staff can be hit or miss on their knowledge and customer service skills.

Bulk top soil terrible for any landscaping job. Dried-out, weeds, roots, and 1/4 arrived in 1/2 inch dirt clods.
