The Natural Gardener is an amazing and beautiful place, an Austin institution for decades. It is a safe haven for plant lovers and a great garden center with a fun environment to explore. The plants are the best and all top-quality, featuring a great selection of native perennials, herbs, annuals, shrubs, and trees. They have everything you could need for indoor and outdoor gardens, including varieties of plants and seeds.
The knowledgeable staff is incredibly helpful and very friendly, known to actually answer the phone. Representatives explain everything about a plant and how to care for it. They own up to mistakes and make things right. The business also has a "science" center to troubleshoot problems, which has been a game changer. It is the place to go for perennial native plants and natural gardening methods. While prices are noted as the cheapest in the Austin area, it is also considered worth it to pay more than big box stores for plants that will thrive. Visitors should look for the dinosaurs sprinkled throughout and say hi to the chickens and goat.
Great spot for plants and gardening supplies. Beautiful property. Large selection. Knowledgeable staff ready to talk it out and provide information on plants, amendments, and processes.
