The Great Outdoors - Austin TX

One of the most unique nursery's I've been to! From dozens of low priced indoor and outdoor pots and plants, to a cat, parrot, and koi fish pond! This is definitely a must-visit!

5/2027 Crazy good selection of a wide variety of shrubs, trees, tropicals, indoor, and outdoor plants and planters. Things are labeled very well for each plants best growing conditions, mature size ranges, and pricing. Big wall of seeds if you like starting from scratch. You can spend an hour just browsing this large complex.

This is a really nice garden center. I've visited here a lot with my mom over the years. She's the gardener in the family. They always have a wide variety of plants and garden items. The plants are well cared for and the employees are very knowledgeable and helpful. I also love that they are dog friendly. I've brought my dog many times as well.

My first experience here was great! I came in looking for a few specific plants. I found some but I decided to pass when I saw a beautiful Tricolor, and a few other beautiful plants. I will absolutely come back. This is a great place to visit. Plus its not too hot right now. I forgot to take pictures plants while I was there but this is the beautiful Tricolor when I got home.

Please please please come to The Great Outdoors. I came just hoping to get some soil and maybe some recommendations about what soil would be best for my project. What I got was REAL warmth from every single employee I passed by, the chance to pet sweet, friendly cats, and a peaceful, almost meditative experience walking through all the plants. Lastly, I wanted to shout out Valerie. Valerie answered all of my million questions so well and so kindly. She made all of the plant mistakes I’ve made feel very normal. I totally recommend coming here for you plant needs or just for a relaxing activity and to learn more about your plants.
