Description of Work: I’ve been going to Flower World for 15+ years. Such a fun place for the garden enthusiast. They have an incredible selection, and staff that actually knows what they’re talking about in terms of plants since the staff love gardening too. Also, side benefit, the grounds are beautiful, including a petting zoo, a park, etc. I’ve gone sometimes just to hang out with family. They also have a country store with fresh produce/eggs

I visited Flower World. They have a large selection and the prices are very competitive.We needed information about the location of plants, etc and asked several employee questions about where to find shrubs, and they didn't know! We also inquired about other things, like whether they had trellis, particular kind of flowers, etc., and the employees (who were hard to find) lacked basic knowledge. It appeared that there was only one woman who knew anything about plants, and she was obviously in demand, so it took waiting in line to speak to her. At times, she seemed annoyed by our questions. I think this company would do much better if they trained their employees, and also hired a few more professionals who could actually help customers make appropriate selections.
Description of Work: Shopping for a large number of privacy shrubs to replace a 48 foot fence.

Staff at Flower World were very helpful by phone, locating and setting aside for my purchase specific plants (needed in certain color for a wedding) before I made the trip out to Maltby. They also were very friendly in person, setting me up with a discount card on the spot. The check-out time was a bit long, perhaps they needed additional cashiers. However, I would even go here just to browse around, as a 'mini-vacation' - very soothing atmosphere and beautiful grounds. And there is a lovely little organic market nearby, that also honors Flower World's 10% discount card.
Description of Work: They helped me over the phone find the flowers I needed, in specified color, and set them aside for me to pick up.

I was blown away at the size of Flower World. It is a bit overwhelming at first. Their are literally acres of plants to chose from, indoor and outdoor. And they grow almost all of what they sell! I am big on buying local. And the fact that they GROW LOCAL (around Maltby) is even better. Talk about reducing your carbon footprint. And besides the better known Molbak's, I am not sure what other nurseries in Seattle can claim they grow their own annuals, perennials, trees, shrubs, etc. The quality is amazing and the prices are far more affordable than Molbak's (which I stopped by to compare prices with on the way to Flower World. Flower World is just about 10 minutes up the road from Molbak's). It has a great country setting. They also let me know that fall is really the best time to plant things. So while the weather has gotten a bit chillier and wet, I am going to head back out next week to get a fruit tree for the front yard, as well as some pansies and violas (all of which THEY grow). Wow.
Description of Work: I went in search of indoor plants to improve the air quality in my home. I also wanted some green bring life to the front room of my house, as well as advice on what were good things to plant in the fall.

Flower World sells all types of plants, garden implements, and decorations. My experience with Flower World has been very good. I feel comfortable there. They recycle flower pots there. If you bring some in, they will use them again. They have a lot of great plants. It is sometimes hard to find someone to help you. I would go to them in the future.

very disappointed. the last few times i have been to Flower Worlf the staff has been extremely unfriendly. This time I thought I would give it one last try since they do have beautiful plants. Last Sunday I was on a mission to find 2 containers for the front of my house, unfortuanitly the inventory was low probably due to the time of the year. On my way out I stopped by the fruit stand to buy some apples. I was unfamiliar with the varieties and wanted some assistance regarding apple types and whether or not pesticides were used ( I had cancer last year and avoid chemicals) I asked the woman working if I could ask her a question and her response was What? I just looked at her and then she said what is your question? I was taken back and said to her that she was not nice. No apology just that she was busy. I left called the store and talked with the manager on duty. She was very nice and promised me that i would hear from a manager on Monday. I didn't hear back so I called again and this time I spoke with the office manager, she was very rude and defensive, she actually argued with me. I couldn't believe it. again she said that she would have the owner call me. I left my number again and as of today I have heard nothing. I vote with my wallet and headed to Molbaks were the customer service is outstanding. As far as I am concerned Flower World doesn't care about improving their imagine or even listening to what i have to say.

I brought photos and measurements of the area, and Pat gave me plant recommendations. There is no charge for first 30 minutes, however there is a fee for additional time. Overall, he gave me some good ideas.

OVERALL, FLOWER WORLD HAS A NUMBER OF VERY KNOWLEDGEABLE STAFF ON HAND TO GIVE IDEAS AND POINT YOU IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION. ALTHOUGH THEIR NURSERY CAN BE A BIT OVERWHELMING WHEN LOOKING FOR A PARTICULAR ITEM, IT DOES OFFER A PLETHORA OF WONDERFUL IDEAS AND OPTIONS FOR OUR NW LANDSCAPES. WEEKENDS SEEM TO BE OVERLY BUSY, SOMETIMES MAKING HELP A LITTLE SCARCE. HOWEVER, THE INFORMATION DESKS ARE USUALLY MANNED AND READY TO ASSIST.
Description of Work: LANDSCAPE AND YARD DESIGN IDEAS. DISCUSSED POND DESIGN, CONSTRUCTION AND PLANTINGS WITH STAFF. RECEIVED ADVICE ON PLANTINGS THAT WOULD SERVE WELL IN OUR YARD FOR SPECIFIC EXPOSURES AND PURPOSES.
