Nurseries & Gardening in Santa Cruz, CA

“The best place for plants. Always stop here when in town and pick up a new plant or two. Always something new and all of their plants seem really healthy. Really cheap prices and staff has been friendly and helpful every time. I can't recommend this place enough. They also have some very rare plants if you're a collector.”

“Let me start off by saying Marilyn is a GEM. Last Friday I went to pick up my mom's wedding bouquet from another local flower shop. What I received was absolutely horrible. My husband and I looked up flower shops in town and went to Ferrari based off the reviews. Thank god we did. I explained to Marilyn what the situation was and told her I could not give my mom the bouquet I picked up for her wedding day which was the following day. I showed her the inspiration picture I had provided the other florist and she worked with what I was given and brought it to life. She added more roses, changed out the greenery and she handed me back a much more presentable and beautiful bouquet! My husband and I were so pleased with Marilyn and her kindness. We will be returning for all of our future flower needs! The first two pictures are before Marilyn worked her absolute magic!”

“Super cute, reasonable prices, the staff seem very knowledgeable about the plants. Had a bit of a letdown when the guy I spoke to, told me he could order a plant I had been searching for and took my info and said they would call when it came in. After a few weeks I called to check on it and was told that they don't actually order them, they have been a wait list for plants that come in, and then couldn't find my name. It wasn't the end of the world, though and the store is still cute!”

“I visited Dig in Santa Cruz yesterday and really enjoyed the beautiful store. One of the staff members helped answer my questions and got me a good price on an item that was on display that was out of stock. She made sure I left with the item I wanted, and honored the quoted price with an additional discount for being an unboxed item. I could have spent all day enjoying their beautifully designed outdoor garden area. I left with some lovely plants, garden decor, and a great customer service experience.”

“I actually really enjoyed my experience here. I wanted butterflies and hummingbirds in my yard, so I asked them about milkweed plants, so I could have caterpillars and caccoons. They suggested that instead I get flowers that attracted butterflies. The woman helping me was friendly and seemed like she really enjoyed her job. I was there 30 minutes before closing and I wasn't rushed out or anything. I left with some flowers and now have bees and butterflies in my yard.
I would definitely come back and buy more plants.”

“It’s not much to look at from the road but these people know what they’re doing and their plants actually live and seem happy from the time you pick them up. Fair prices and , …. The deal sealer…. Knowledgeable, honest staff. I don’t know what these other reviews are about. Worth the drive.”
