So pleased with our experience at the Earl May nursery on 48th. I wish I had gotten the name of the lady who helped us; She was wonderful. She gave us names of three different bulbs and how to stack plant them so we would have flowers all summer. I wasn't aware it would be so easy. I am anxious for spring to see our burst of flowers.

Always a beautiful selection of flowers and plants; as well as their supplies, and they also have decor! Knowledgeable employees and friendly.

Extremely disappointed with my experience with Earl May. Purchased a palm tree from the south store. Took it in to get an idea of what was making it look sick (it was a bad case of scale). And also to see if they would re-pot it. I called beforehand to ask all the questions and felt confident they knew what they were doing. It took 2 1/2 weeks and me calling three times in order for me to get my palm tree back. No one bothered to call with an update or to let me know it was ready (they originally told me it would be 4 days, I just happened to call for an update and they said it was ready). When I went in, I quite honestly think that my palm looked worse than when I brought it in. There was several several brown/dead tips on the tree, The main branch was completely broke and bent down, it was overwatered, no one knew if there was any drainage system put in the bottom of the new pot. I thought I was taking my plant to experts. The ladies who were working, tried to help; one clipped off the dead ends, one drilled holes in the bottom of the pot (because we did not know if there was mulch or rocks in the pot for drainage). There were no notes left on what was done. They could’ve have easily trimmed the plant, put a stake in it (to correct their rough handling of it), and left notes on care. It would’ve been nice to see a cared for plant instead of what I walked into. This plant was a special gift and I was hoping to return it in a much healthier state, in a new pot. Instead, I have a sad looking broke down plant that I’m not sure is going to make it through its overwatering and broke branch. Disappointed is an understatement! I would not recommend Earl May to do any type of plant care. I will stick with YouTube, a plant app, and purchasing plants from other sources.

I like their plant selection. They take good care of their plants. I only wished they would label their plants. Their staff is nice and friendly. They also have a beautiful monstera Thai and unique looking cacti.
