They raise the price overnight on me. Called on Tuesday ask for the grass prices told them I was picking up tomorrow Wednesday. They gave me a price for the grass and my customer agreed to the price. Showed up on Wednesday morning and the price went up 20%. One of the employees outside told me they raised all the prices 20% across the board on everything from yesterday. I told the person on the phone Tuesday I was coming to pick the grass up. He could have told me the prices were going up on Wednesday so I would not end up losing so much money on the job.

The grass was dry, had patches, and was not fresh. I wanted St Augustine Palmetto. The grass Outlet ran out. Sadly this is the only grass I can find. However, The Grass Outlet is the way to go! For grass I will not purchase anywhere else! I learned my lesson

Spring time is my favorite time to shop here. It was a beautiful morning today. The staff is incredibly knowledgeable; the tree guy was impressive when helping us pick a fast growing tree. We've been coming here for years even when our Red tips got a fungus the manager advised us how to take care of it.

I am just getting into gardening and visited Milberger's for the first time. I meandered around aimlessly for about 15 minutes and was never once acknowledged by the staff. I didn't even see anyone that looked like staff as they weren't wearing or didn't seem to be wearing anything that stood out. I needed help and was looking for advice and a friendly smile to encourage my questions but instead had to wait in line at the register for another 20 minutes just to say that I don't know anything about gardening and was looking for some advice on soil.etc.
I was briskly set aside to follow someone to a person that knew about the plant I needed the soil for and wasn't even asked what type it was or anything else. I felt discouraged vs excited after leaving with my soil that I regretted buying. If you're an avid gardener that knows everything you need to know I'm sure it's a great place. I'll be visiting Rainbow or Fanick's from now on (even though I live less than 1 mile from Milberger's.)

I had the BEST experience with Milbergers this morning! We drove up and noticed they were BUSY! That didn't deter any of their helpful workers to direct me to the exact trees I was looking for. The "tree guy" was AMAZING! I can't remember his name, he gave me so much information on what to look for and expect in the trees I was buying. Everyone was in a great mood and wanted to help. I was even directed to a shorter checkout line outside, to help get the busy crowd moving. This place is awesome!
