“We stopped in yesterday for the first time. We needed a couple of plants and we were really impressed. They have a lot of plants and flowers and a nice variety. Everything is so healthy!! The plants are well organized so it’s easy to find what you’re looking for. Vivian helped us find the right plants for the conditions that they will be in. Besides plants and flowers they have both bulk and bagged mulch. They also have a farm stand. It’s easy to get to and plenty of parking. Will definitely be back.”
“What a nice old nursery to visit. We enjoyed the atmosphere and the staff. There was a very nice variety of plants. We saw a beautiful tree, reasonably priced, but we could not fit it in our vehicle and it was almost 2hrs away. Overall very nice place.”
“The staff is very friendly and helpful In making plant selections. They are very knowledgeable in plant care and maintaining the plants for home or garden. We have been pleased with the tropicals and their natural displays are an adventure.”
“I get my flowers and garden supplies every year from Mellilos and am never disappointed. The flowers bloom beautifully. It’s always a great experience going into this family owned business. The owner is very helpful, knowledgeable and very nice! I highly recommend this store!!!!!!”
“EDITED on 4/19. A Customer Service Manager contacted me to issue a refund for the difference in price & apologized for the confusing message about price match. Since I did have both receipts, I would be eligible for the refund. I think a new employee misunderstood their policy. They also gave me bonus points and a coupon which I felt was very nice and very good customer service!
Nice store in North Branford with good customer service but you need to check prices sometimes before buying because they don't price match. On the 11th, I bought a small bag of Open Farm Salmon dog kibble with grains - $26.99. Went to All Pets Club in Branford today & the same bag was less.”
“We live in Cheshire and love Zentek farms. We have gone strawberry picking which was a lot of fun. We also often buy the fresh fruits and vegetables which are delicious. It is good to be able to support a local business and eat wonderful fresh food. The people who work there are so nice and friendly. We recently bought some pumpkins and mums which are looking lovely out on our deck!”
“The guys were extremely helpful and incredibly knowledgeable. A wide variety of interesting water plants. Water displays are lovely and they have some huge koi. Will definitely go again.”
“Beautiful, fresh farm produce. Bought some field-grown tomatoes. Also some fresh figs- ate one in the parking lot before I left. Delicious. Got some Ciabatta bread and Italian plums. Associates are friendly and efficient. They have lots more too.7/23 Fruits of the Forest pie was Fresh and Delicious! Large tasty tomatoes, orange peppers, a large canteloupe and ripe peaches! Friendly associates too. Thank you- love this place...not to mention they have a huge selection of flowering and vegetable plants too.10/16 Great veggies- corn, tomatoes, red onion and apples today. Àpple pie çould use some cinamon / more flavor.”
“My go-to for the needs of groundskeeping and pet foods. If you're into landscaping this is the place. In addition to their Great Prices, they are extremely helpful in information about pest control. I'm not trying to harm anyone's animals, have to be very careful in what you use for rodent deterrent.”
“This is an excellent garden center! They have a vast variety of both indoor and outdoor plants. They have a variety of mulch vases gardening supplies and tools. They have bird feeders, bird baths, shepherds hooks. They have pretty much everything you need for your home garden and indoor plants. In addition to all the items that are available the staff is knowledgeable about gardening and the plants.”

413 Barnes Rd, Wallingford“Went there to see if they still sold lunch sandwiches like they did over 20 years ago. Was surprised they did stop that but they still sell baked goods and have a good some nice plants.”
“North Guilford Nurseries, besides having the coolest nicest family run operation, really is unique, perfect, off Rte 77. They have plants and flowers you won’t find anywhere—and the organic feel of the place will put a smile on your face the rest of the day☺️And the BANDS AND FUN ROCK!!!”
“I recently found out that they do kids workshop every month of 1st Saturday. I went with my son and he really enjoyed it. You have to sign up ahead of time. I'm definitely going next time...”

2340 Whitney Ave, Hamden“I had a very hard time finding a local florist that had a storefront and was still in business. I went to 2 locations, one which was abandoned and the other closed before finding Alan's shop. Hamden Florist has been great! I had to run in and get a last-minute bouquet and the owner, Alan was very helpful and kind and listened to what I wanted. Not only did he do a fantastic job but he got it done in a short amount of time. I received a gorgeous bouquet at the most affordable and reasonable price I've found anywhere else. I ended up going back a few later for another arrangement and I was not disappointed.”
“What an incredible place for trees and shrubs, I was in awe. Bell carries some absolutely stunning and hard to find ever green trees in all sorts of sizes and maturity in a truly peaceful garden like setting. The staff is also incredibly kind and helpful, it was my first time and I left with way more than I needed, I’m excited to go back in the fall and see what they have in store”
“The “Chicken Ambassador”/porter you have sweeping the parking lots is a hoot. He’ll tell you all about his farm, fishing, and chickens.Maybe next time you can have him dress as a chicken to really sell the whole “Chicken Ambassador” deal.”
“I recently visited Home Depot to get some essentials for my lawn maintenance, and I had the pleasure of being assisted by Doug. His exceptional service and extensive knowledge truly made my shopping experience outstanding.
Doug took the time to listen to my needs and offered invaluable suggestions on the best lawn maintenance essentials. His recommendations were spot on, ensuring that I had everything I needed to keep my lawn in top shape. What impressed me most was Doug's deep knowledge of lawn care, stemming from his many years of experience in the field.
He explained the pros and cons of different equipment, making it easy for me to choose the right tools. His insights into proper lawn care techniques and the best products to use were incredibly helpful. It's clear that Doug genuinely cares about his customers and is passionate about sharing his expertise.
Thanks to Doug, I left Home Depot feeling confident and well-prepared to tackle my lawn maintenance tasks. I highly recommend seeking him out for any lawn care advice – you won't be disappointed!
Thank you, Doug, for your outstanding service and dedication!
Shoutout to the rest of the workers at this location I have gone 3-4 times in the past 2 days and always receive good service!”
“I had a very positive experience at this Walmart- all because of one of their customer service representatives, Jessica. I was fortunate enough to be transferred to her when I called for information regarding a chair I was trying to purchase. I needed to find out whether, if the chair wasn't right, it could be returned and at what cost. Jessica quickly point out that the chair I was trying to buy would not qualify for free returns but a basically identical one would be. I was especially impressed that- her own - she also offered me a discount code. I would have never been able to know what chair to buy and how to get the discount. People like Jessica are often the face of a store, and Jessica was a friendly, helpful and smiling one throughout. I'm very pleased and very grateful.”
“I have to give John from the pro desk a credit , he is amazing , took care of our order , made sure I got the right stuff , made sure all gathered for pick up , I had a very complicated order and he did it like nothing, i appreciate his patience with us and his help so much thank you John”
“What a difference between this HD and the one in East Haven.. This store was clean, well stocked, and employees who were actually going out of there way to help.Is the East Haven store some kind of experiment?”

“My go to home improvement center, typical Home Depot. Must make note, I previously suggested them for countertops. After all was done, I wouldn't get them designed or installed from HD again. There was lots of issues with the process, including the designer(she didn't want to assist once she got her commissions)and install (broken or missing ) but just to run in for soil or light bulbs, ok”

1873 Dixwell Ave, Hamden“Unfortunately, the items I needed in the Home Depot in Orange were not in stock. They sent me to the Hamden store. After spending five minutes looking for someone to help me, I was able to find the items I needed. The store was not in the same clean condition as the one in Orange. I would feel more comfortable shopping in Hamden if there was a security guard or two visible. In view of the increase in crime committed in Hamden, I do believe the store would be doing more business with additional staff.”
“Yesterday was the first time we purchased our annual Christmas tree from them. All of their trees were perfectly shaped, full and fresh. And, the price was better than other retailers. This is by far the nicest tree we have ever found.”
