  These guys are awesome. I love going in here. They always have a huge selection of plants to choose from along with all kinds of lawn equipment and garden decor. A lot of stuff that other nurseries don’t have. I’ve purchased from Yard Stop a couple dozen different times and have yet to have a bad experience. They have done installs up to around 200 plants and trees for me now. Again, no complaints.

  Pots galore! Prices were reasonable on plants. The pots were buy 1 get 1 half off. For the very large (20+gallon sized) they ranges from $89+. So not a bad deal. The had a lot of lawn ornaments, too, that were nicely displayed. Their citrus trees looked amazing, and are mostly all in bloom.

  Came into the store to schedule installation, and Jenn came out to house to spec everything out. I tried to overlook that it took two more calls before she sent over the quote. Invested more than $3,200 to have The Yard Stop come out and install three trees, a sago palm, and some hedges. I had specified with Wendy that I would need to come in and help select the items, but on the morning of the installation, Jenn called and said they were already loading the truck! The trees looked really scrawny, the palm was ᵀᴵᴺʸ, and the bushes were also very small. I could have purchased the palm and bushes from Home Depot or Lowes for, literally, half the cost, and installed them myself. To add insult to injury, I found out the company won't stand behind their products or installation unless I invest in expensive irrigation (I have used lawn sprinklers to complete success at my previous house). I have to say that the Mexican laborers did the best they could with what they had, staked down the trees, and arranged the shrubs evenly. After I encouraged the foreman to get off his phone in the truck cab, he emerged and thereupon supervised well. It was fun chatting with them in Spanish and I tipped them each handsomely, as I felt somewhat concerned for them, seeing what they had to eat on each of their two siestas/meal breaks. I was disappointed mainly in the ᵀᴵᴺʸ sago palm, and two of my neighbors mocked it the next day! I would not have approved the loading of such an item that cost me so much. UPDATE: I was able to request a follow-up visit and Jenn did come out, said one of the trees was, in fact, failing to thrive. She said she would see what could be done.
