On August 3rd, 2007, ecarso changed the rating from negative to positive and added the following: I take it back as to the customer service. I must have been there on busy days in the past. They can get very busy at times. Once you get their attention if they aren't overrun. They are very helpful and knowledgable. They are still a bit pricy for my budget. Overall they is for sure a stop worth making if you are in the area. |

On one visit, a staff member who also works at the nearby Huntington, was incredibly generous with her advice on pest prevention. It is owned and run by sisters--their father inspired their love for all things succulent. The staff is extremely knowedgeable, pleasant and helpful, the nursery is open 7 days a week, and has an extensive selection of plants as well as pottery. I would expect nothing less from the supplier of cacti for the Getty gardens! |

They have an excellently laid out place and it gets better all the time. I have visited this nursery for over 8 years and it is in constant evolution. Soon it will be the best nursery of its kind if they keep it up. |

Positive | rfath (1 review) | On Oct 23, 2003, rfath Los Altos, CA wrote: I spent hours here picking out plants, and must have left with around 40. I had traveled around Southern California on a cactus crawl, and this was by far the best place I had been. Great selection and some of the most healthy plants I had seen. I highly recommend making this a destination if you are in Pasadena and love cactus/succulents. I do wish you could order online from them. Since you can't, I will have to make another trip from the Bay Area again in the spring. |
Positive | Crasulady2 (5 reviews) | On Jan 8, 2002, Crasulady2 Valley Village, CA wrote: I love this place, I love to buy my show pots here. A very large selection of plants, some very rare, big, a great collection of small plants, reasonable, show plants available, San. Cactus, Lithops, Crassula, Haworthia, 'Elephant foot' all sorts of stuff, they are friendly, helpful, mail out fast, but only when in season and safe for the plant. Very ethical. Limited books. |
