Updated review: It is so hurtful, annoying, and disappointing when your favorite place lets you down. When visiting keep in mind that nefarious people go as well; cutting or breaking limbs off of plants to steal. This causes some unique pots, some of them are the last on the shelves, to be mistreated or missing limbs - essentially harming the plant and reducing its overall value and appearance (marks and callused over breaks and scars). Being a regular customer that buys something Every-time I visit (rare plant hunter) found a sad Plumeria who lost a full limb - All its cousins had 3 healthy limbs. It was the last unique color (Nirvana). A “gentleman” who I assume is the manager was called and was told by a worker who went and checked than in fact it is the last one and all others have 3 limbs… The dude cavalierly says that’s the prices. Period. Didn’t even look at me in the eye and called it an “old break from the vender.” — I have gone back two other times, in the span since my original comment, and the poor plant is STILL unsold and in WORSE conditions FOR THE SAME PRICE!
I have been to both locations, but this one seems to offer a huge variety of succulents and cacti. I'm a cacti person, and I was in awe! They have large ones, small ones, and they hit every price point, which I love. Every time I go, I leave with a cactus or two. I love their selection of plant pots and garden decorations. The staff has always been friendly, too. It's a great place to just look around! I live in far SE SA, and it's worth the drive.
Todays outing included a stop at Rainbow Gardens Nursery in Thousand Oaks, San Antonio, Texas. The nursery is a lively and bustling spot for plant lovers, especially when the weather is perfect for gardening, like it is right now! The parking can be a bit tricky, as it's often tight, and you might have to circle around a few times to find an open spot. However, once you get in, the atmosphere is definitely worth it. You can either enter through the shop or head straight to the outdoor plant area from the outside entrance, where you’ll find an impressive variety of plants. The nursery is busy, but it's clear that it's a favorite for locals looking to start their planting projects. Despite the crowd, it's easy to get help when you need it, as the staff is readily available and knowledgeable. The selection of plants is great, catering to both beginners and seasoned gardeners alike. Whether you're looking for vibrant flowers, shrubs, or unique landscaping options, such as xeriscape plants, Rainbow Gardens has a lot to offer. It’s a very nice place to shop for all your gardening needs, with a friendly and busy vibe that makes it clear why it’s a go-to spot for plant enthusiasts in the area.
