Information on Hicks Nurseries Inc.

I only come here in April for 5 of the items I need for my gardening arsenal but since my last visit have decided it\'s really not worth my time, expense, aggravation, or disappointment anymore.

Hicks\' prices tend to be on the high end for many items & plants which I have not found to be any different nor better in quality than plants & items I have gotten from other less tony places. I\'ve been gardening on L.I. longer than most people have lived here so I\'ve seen/experienced a lot of things & been to almost every nursery/garden center this Island has to offer. Even though Hicks is 160 years old, they still carry the same old plants & gardening supplies as everyone else, just for 3-4xs more. If you\'re cool with that, have fun. I prefer to get more bang for my buck.

I've always been pleased with Hicks; the selection, the service, the location, the decor. Especially since they rebuilt much of their selling space in recent years.
