Malara Gardens - Arvada CO

I went here for the first time and I’m so glad I did. This is my new go-to plant shop. I have 4 huge raised garden beds and they had everything I needed. I also needed plants for my garden and they had it all. Very peaceful shopping experience, great plants and flowers with a lot of options. The staff was so nice and helpful too.

Amazing garden center and the staff is polite and personable. We love to patronize local businesses and Malara makes the decision easy! We purchased a home last year with sizable property and they were super insightful and what and where to plant. I have a thriving garden and it’s large in part due to the expertise of the business!

Very pretty flowers however the customer service was👎🏼 the woman spoke to me as if I were a child simply because I asked for the price on some flowers. (I have a vision issue and cannot see small numbers) however, I shouldn't have to explain that to anyone... It wasn't like they were busy but I felt like I inconvenienced the employee. She was so rude to me and when I went to pay, she walked to the back & had another employeego to the front to ring me up. The flowers were a bit pricy but I went ahead and purchased 2 arrangements for my 91 year old mother and she loved them!

I live very close to this place, but had always shopped @ Echter's because I worked for their father until the end of his life. 😔 I stopped in this summer, and found their petunias pretty overpriced for a single lady, but I (very hesitantly) bought 2 of the largest hanging baskets anyway. One did not look as good as the other, but they assured me it would "come back". After just a few days and one fertilizer treatment, it actually got worse! The front of my home is FULL of every kind of flower, and I work very hard to tend them....watering, fertilizing, and pruning/trimming them daily. These petunia plants looked pretty sickly after just a few weeks, and no indications why?? These baskets were $45.99 each, but the petunia baskets I purchased @ Wal-Mart for $9.94 ea. look a WHOLE LOT BETTER!!! Not going to this place again. Too overrated and definitely overpriced. 😒

Such pretty and healthy plants!! Workers friendly too, have been coming for a few years now. Love this place.
