Durham Garden Center - Durham NC

Great shop with a really nice collection of both indoor and outdoor plants, and the prices seemed very reasonable. We enjoyed browsing through everything they had. A couple of the plants were not labeled very clearly though, with some just marked under general names like “foliage”. Also, one of the staff members did not seem super knowledgeable about some plants or where they they were picked from (inside the store or outside). Overall still a good experience and worth checking out.

I am a cancer patient at Duke Cancer Center. I went to The nursery to help find plants for air filtration in my room- while I go through my treatment. Keith help me through the whole process. He was cordial, empathetic, professional, and took the time to help me select each and every plant while giving me an education on what to do and how to do it once I return home to my state of Georgia. he went above and beyond what I thought, or even asked once I walked into the nursery location. If you’re looking for a place, that’s gonna take you on an educational journey of plants that he treated like they were human and part of the family Go see him at Durham Nursery and you won’t be let down, but lifted up above and beyond all your expectations. Respectfully, Samual D.

I live down the street so I tried this place more than once over the years. It’s full of rude and unhelpful employees. Plants are plants and they’re expensive. I’d rather buy them from happier people who are willing to educate me. After I tracked down a genius employee, she told me all of NC has clay and I had just moved to Durham from the outer banks 🤣

I had an incredible experience today with Ryan! He was so patient and professional and knowledgeable and kind. He answered all of my questions and even took the time to let me show him all of my houseplants one by one on my phone. He went above and beyond to make sure I had a good experience and because of him I will definitely be coming back here for all of my plant needs. Also- the plants are so beautiful here!!! I left thinking- wow I would love to just hang out here. Thank you Ryan and thank you Durham Garden Center!!!

What a lovely store! It's small but mighty. They have a great selection of beautiful plants and pots, as well as accessories like moss poles. I didn't catch the name of the girl that helped me but she was a delight as well.
