Allisonville Garden & Home

Landscaping, Greenhouses/Nurseries, Tree Service,

About us

In 1976, Jeff Gatewood hung a handmade sign and began Allisonville Nursery with 15 spruce trees, hand-dug from a Michigan farm. The 3-acre plot across from the family owned airport in Fishers, Indiana was carved out of farmland that had been in the family for nearly 30 years and housed a 20 x 40 foot structure that once held a flower shop run by Jeff's mother. After moving half a mile north in 1985 after too many close calls with small aircraft, Allisonville Nursery now encompasses 5 acres and has expanded into a 7,500 square foot garden store and gift shop.

We felt like the service we received at Allisonville Nursery was great. They helped explain how to care for our new plants and the best way to plant them. We will definitely shop there again!

The pump went out on our fountain and they ordered one for us. They also replaced a tree we bought from them a couple years ago. They replaced it and gave us one at half the cost.

I love shopping in their gift shop. They have many unusual items that you just can't find elsewhere. If you are looking for a unique gift, the Allisonville Nursery is a great place to go. I bought some wonderful soaps and a mobile/wind chime. The staff is friendly and helpful.

Called company to discuss plan which they developed for previous owners of our current home. Requested that someone come to discuss our concerns about the plan and give current estimate for the work as the plan was developed several year ago. We were told someone would call back same day. No call. Received message several days later requesting we come to them. Given the amount of money we were willing to spend on landscaping and the fact we told them we were ready to move forward with doing the plan we felt they should come to us. The estimate they gave previous owners several years ago was 10s of thousands more than the company we used to actually do the work.
Description of Work: Phone contact regarding landscaping plan we wished to update, obtain current estimate and move forward in implementing.

We went to the nursery & looked at the inventory; we were told the types of trees we wanted would be delivered in "several weeks". That was disappointing, but they were finally delivered & planted by Allisonville; however, 2 were not staked correctly (one began cutting into the bark badly & we had to "rescue" it). One other tree died (they did replace it, but only after 2 phone calls). Another is very crooked & should be re-staked after a year. The quality of evergreens we received was just generally not high & the turn-around on response to calls is very bad.
Description of Work: I purchased several evergreens for our yard, which were delivered & planted by Allisonville Nursery.

THIS IS ANOTHER INSTANCE OF QUALITY VERSUS QUANTITY. YOU CAN ALWAYS BUY THESE PLANTS CHEAPER AT THE LARGE HARDWARE STORES FOR MUCH LESS MONEY, BUT ALLISONVILLE HAS A SUPERIOR PRODUCT. YOU WILL HAVE ABOUT 2 - 3 YEARS OF GROWTH AHEAD OF THE HARDWARE STORES, SO THE EXTRA MONEY IS WORTH IT. SOMETIMES IT'S DIFFICULT TO FIND SOMEONE TO HELP OUTSIDE, BUT WHEN YOU FIND AN EMPLOYEE THEY ARE ALWAYS VERY NICE.

PIERRE DID OUR DESIGNS AND WE WERE VERY HAPPY WITH HIM. HE LISTENED TO OUR IDEAS AND TO OUR OVERALL STYLE PREFERENCES. THE WORK WAS DONE PROMPTLY AND ALLISONVILLE MADE A THREE-RING BINDER WITH INFORMATION ABOUT EACH PLANT. IT'S BEEN A GREAT RESOURCE FOR US. THEY ALSO PROVIDED A QUOTE FOR BUYING & INSTALLATION AND FOR JUST BUYING THE PLANTS. WE ARE REDOING THE FRONT OF THE HOUSE AND WILL DEFINITELY USE ALLISONVILLE AGAIN FOR OUR LANDSCAPE DESIGN.

ALLISONVILLE NURSERY WAS VERY HELPFUL IN SELECTING THE TREES, AND PROVIDING PLANTING AND WATERING INSTRUCTIONS. DELIVERED THE TREES QUICKLY, AND PLACED THEM EXACTLY WHERE REQUESTED. A GREAT NURSERY, WITH A LARGE STOCK OF PLANTS, AND HELPFUL STAFF.

WE WERE VERY HAPPY WITH THE RESULTS. JACQUES WAS ON TIME AND VERY PERSONABLE AND HELPFUL WITH MEETING OUR NEEDS. THE INSTALLATION THIS FALL WAS DONE VERY WELL AND THEY DID A COUPLE OF THINGS WHICH I DIDN'T THINK WERE NECESSARILY PART OF THE QUOTE, BUT ENHANCED THE APPEARANCE OF THE WHOLE PLAN. THE WORKERS WERE PUNCTUAL AND WORKED HARD.
Description of Work: IN THE SPRING WE HAD THEM DRAW UP A LANDSCAPE PLAN FOR OUR FRONT YARD. JACQUES MET WITH US AND DREW UP A PLAN. IN THE FALL WE CONTRACTED TO HAVE THEM PERFORM ABOUT HALF THE PLAN WHICH INCLUDED LAYING OUT A BED, PLANTING AN EVERGREEN TREE, REMOVING SOME BUSHES AND TRANSPLANTING SOME SHRUBS.

AS ALWAYS, ALLISONVILLE DID A GREAT JOB FOR US. WE ARE VERY PLEASED.
Description of Work: ALLISONVILLE LANDSCAPED OUR ENTIRE YARD LAST YEAR (USING MANY NEW, BUT SOME OF THE EXISTING SHRUBS AND PLANTS). WE WANTED THEM TO REPLACE SOME OF THE PLUM BUSHES THAT WE HAD THEM TRANSPLANT LAST YEAR WITH VIBURNUMS, AND TO EDGE AND MULCH ALL OF OUR LANDSCAPE BEDS. A SIGNIFICANT TASK SINCE WE NEED ABOUT 22 CUBIC YARDS OF MULCH TO COVER ALL OF THE BEDS. I ALSO HAD THEM REPLACE TWO OF THE NEW PLANTS THAT WERE STILL UNDER WARRANTY THAT DID NOT MAKE IT THROUGH THE WINTER.

I WAS VERY IMPRESSED WITH THE STAFF AT ALLISONVILLE NURSERY. EVERYONE WAS PROFESSIONAL AND SO VERY NICE. I HAD NEVER BEEN THERE BEFORE AND THEY HAVE JUST BEAUTIFUL STOCK. I ENDED UP HAVING TO CANCEL THE TWO SPRUCES BECAUSE WE WERE GOING TO BE MOVING. I EXPECTED THAT THEY MIGHT JUST GIVE ME A CREDIT TO USE OVER THE NEXT YEAR SINCE I HAD ALREADY PAID, HOWEVER, THEY CREDITED MY CARD BACK IMMEDIATELY WITH NO PROBLEM. I WILL BE GOING BACK IN THE SPRING TO FIND THINGS FOR OUR NEW YARD.
Description of Work: I HAD PURCHASED TWO ALBERTA SPRUCE TREES FROM ALLISONVILLE NURSERY. THEY WERE TO PLANT THEM AS WELL. I DID NOT HAVE THE TREES DELIVERED BECAUSE I FOUND OUT SHORTLY AFTER I ARRANGED FOR THE DELIVERY THAT WE WOULD BE MOVING.

JUST THROUGH A PHONE CALL, THEIR PERSONNEL SEEMS TO HAVE A LOT OF EXPERTISE. CUSTOMER FRIENDLY AND WAS EAGER TO HELP, PROVIDE INFORMATION. I HAD A LOT OF QUESTIONS ABOUT A FEW VARIETIES OF TREES WE WERE THINKING OF PLANTING IN OUR YARD (NAMELY DOGWOODS) TO REPLACE WELL ESTABLISHED TREES WE HAD TO CUT DOWN THAT DIED. WILL SHOP THERE FIRST NEXT SPRING.
Description of Work: LOOKING TO PURCHASE ONE OR 2 DOGWOOD TREES. WILL WAIT UNTIL SPRING, RATHER THAN THIS FALL. DID NOT PHYSICALLY GO TO ALLISONVILLE NURSERY. HAD PHONE CONVERSATION WITH FEMALE EMPLOYEE WHO WAS VERY KNOWLEDGEABLE, FRIENDLY AND HELPFUL. GOT A GOOD FEELING ABOUT THIS COMPANY AND WILL SHOP THERE NEXT SPRING FOR TREE/S. OTHER LANDSCAPE COMPANIES ALSO REFERRED ME TO THEM, WHICH I TOOK AS A GOOD SIGN.

JACQUES AND HIS CREW WERE ON TIME, POLITE AND CLEANED UP EACH DAY. I WOULD RECOMMEND THEM TO ANYONE. THEY CAN DO LARGE OR SMALL JOBS TO FIT YOUR BUDGET. YOU JUST NEED TO TELL THEM WHAT YOU WANT AND WHAT YOUR BUDGET IS.
Description of Work: JACQUES SCHINDLER, FROM ALLISONVILLE NURSERY, DID A GREAT JOB ON THE LANDSCAPE PLAN TO RE-LANDSCAPE OUR 1/2 ACRE WOODED LOT IN FISHERS. WE COULD THEN HAVE DONE THE LANDSCAPING OURSELVES, IF WE WANTED, BUT HE ALSO, QUOTED THEM DOING THE WORK BY DIFFERENT AREAS OF THE YARD (E.G. FRONT, SIDES, BACK) IF WE WANTED TO DO IT IN SEGMENTS OVER TIME.

WE BOUGHT SOD ON TWO DIFFERENT OCCASIONS THIS SPRING FROM ALLISONVILLE NURSERY. WE WERE TREATED VERY POORLY BY THE SAME STAFF-PERSON EACH TIME WE VISITED THE NURSERY. HE WAS EXTREMELY CONDESCENDING AND RUDE. WE CALLED THE GENERAL MANAGER TO COMPLAIN ABOUT THE TERRIBLE SERVICE WE RECEIVED ON BOTH VISITS, AND HE CALLED US BACK AND LEFT A MESSAGE SAYING HE WOULD TRY TO REACH US ANOTHER TIME. WE NEVER HEARD FROM HIM AGAIN. WE WILL NEVER VISIT ALLISONVILLE NURSERY NOR RECOMMEND IT TO ANY OF OUR FRIENDS OR FAMILY. EXTREMELY POOR SERVICE!
