C&S Garden Center - Lawndale CA

Chris & Cesar were so incredibly helpful! They took the time to walk us through many options and were thoughtful in their questions & guiding us in the right direction. Everyone is so knowledgeable there & kind! Great prices too. Highly recommend.

This is a great nursery located in central Hawthorne that has a decent selection of just about everything you may need. Whether you grow tomatoes, blueberries, fuchsia, sunflowers, or cannabis this place has everything you need. This is true of many places in the area, but what separates this nursery is the attitude of the employees and the owner himself. You know who owns the place just by the way he acts. You will also know who takes care of the plants because of how enthusiastic and knowledgeable he is. I help a disabled person get to and from El Camino so I often stop there with him so we can walk around and he can enjoy the plants and walk my dog. I waited until I had been there five times before leaving this review just to make sure it wasn’t a one time thing. I had bought several plants, nutrients and soil, and if I need anything that they don’t carry they offer to order it for me. The prices are not low, but they definitely are not high either. For example I think I paid $-10-$12 for a medium bag of Ocean Forest and $12-$13 for a couple feet of organic acid mix. All their plants are source locally and guaranteed to be appropriate for our environment. That’s not the case with Lowe’s or Home Depot. This is a gardener’s nursery and I recommend it to everyone I know that enjoys gardening. Stop by and support your local nursery!

I went to the C & S Garden Center yesterday just to have a look around. Everything was very well kept. A myriad of nice plants. I walked around looking at plants and prices. The smaller plants looked reasonably priced and there was a great selection. I walked around outside for quite awhile, and then went inside. Wow, just a well laid out great looking place! I have a variety of plants at home and rarely need a nursery. However this place is just down the street and relatively new to the neighborhood. Located at Marine and Freeman in Lawndale. There is plenty of parking inside with an entrance on both streets. I highly recommend a visit. It is so visually pleasing you might save yourself a trip to the museum! 😎

Love all the plants!! It’s my go to place every time I want to buy a plant. Great customer service and everyone is always so friendly and so helpful.

Highly recommend this place. Got a beautiful fiddle leaf fig and blue pot to put it in. But before that, the wonderful staff helped us narrow down what plant to get and what are the pros/cons. Our track record with keeping plants alive is pretty bad, so they helped us find a plant that best suits our lifestyle. They also said to feel free to reach out to them for any questions, esp since it can be hard on the plant to move to a new environment/home. Hope we don’t kill this one!
