Rolling Ridge Nursery

I’ve driven past this place countless times and have never stopped in but I needed to buy a new pot for a plant I’d received as a gift. Plus, a potted african violet was small plant in a HUGE pot in my office and I was tired of how ridiculous it looked. I decided to stop by here since the pot selection at Home Depot isn’t great and the Botanical Gardens was too hard for me to get to. I’m so glad I tried them! They had a great little selection of pots and I was able to find a pretty blue one for $ 5. Then I was able to speak to someone in the greenhouse about my poor little african violet and she showed me some great self watering pots that are the perfect size.
Delving into their Facebook page I can see that they do classes so I am now considering taking one of those. It’s just a very awesome store with very helpful people.

I have so many questions and I always get good answers at Rolling Ridge. They are very knowledgable on how to grow things in this climate and how to solve lawn and garden problems. The plants are always high quality and service is friendly.

This place makes me absolutely giddy. All bushes and trees come with a guarantee as well as detailed instructions for planting. And for a larger specimen (and a reasonable fee) Rolling Ridge will deliver and plant it for you. And I don’t mean just slap it on the ground. They make sure they mix your soil with the appropriate amount of cotton, make recommendations for the appropriate sight, etc. All plants (including annuals, perennials and indoor plants) are healthy and well cared for. The container soil is free of any trace of foreign weeds that could infest your garden. The icing on the cake are the knowledgeable and always friendly staff. A great place to start if you are looking for new landscaping ideas or just picking up some seasonal annuals. True shopping therapy.

this nursery is great, especially at the end of the season when they put their items on sale to prep for winter. I have two thriving lime trees from this nursery, two years fruit-​producing. I saw All-​Spice trees today, which I would have bought would it have fit in my little VW. This place makes me want to drive a pickup.

This place is WAY bigger than it looks from the outside. The selection is great. And they specialize in more of the ornamental plants that the home improvement stores don’t carry. Many of the plants/​trees had signs on them highlighting their 5 year warranty. Everyone seems friendly, and happy here. They also have a very wide selection of garden tools.
Although I’ll probably be replacing where I usually get my plants with this place, I will say that they aren’t a bargain. It’s not that they are over priced here, but don’t walk in expecting really good deals.

Went here because we had a Groupon. (One of the employees said they sold 6,000 of ‘em! Jeez.)
They are pricier than our usual go-​to place, Bayer Garden Shop on Hampton, but it seemed that the plants were a little more mature than what you get at Bayer. For instance, I bought a pepper plant to replace one that I bought from Bayer that had died — it was more expensive than the *four-​pack* that I bought from Bayer, but it’s also bigger than the Bayer peppers that I planted a month ago.
My wife bought flowers, and again, they were more expensive than Bayer, but they frequently came in 6-​packs instead of Bayer’s 4-​packs, so they didn’t end up being *that* much more expensive. She really liked the quality and selection of the plants that they had to offer.
So, you may end up paying more than you do at some area garden shops, but you’re also likely to get bigger plants.

I got the Groupon for Rolling Ridge, and was mucho impressed. Such a pretty little nursery to browse, with so many levels, in an old brick building in Webster Groves.
I guess I expected the prices to be higher, since it isn’t your run of the mill big-​box store, but, I don’t think they were. That made me happy, because I’d much rather support a local place like this than Lowe’s or Home Depot.
I’m not a big purchaser of garden novelty items (i.e. elaborate pots for patios, etc.), but they had a good selection and there were some really pretty items.

LOVE this nursery. They have great plants & products and are close to my house — a bonus. If you buy a lot of plants, join their preferred club (costs $ 25 I think) and save 2 days a week. If you buy a lot, you’ll get it back in rewards. I have bought lots of flowers here and they always last a LONG time and look beautiful. Have also bought bigger flowering bushes, which I planted myself and were very hearty and did great. The people who work here really know what they are doing and can give you advice on anything you need or ideas!
