Jericho Nursery

Although windy and cool for a spring day, we could not resist going in to look! Well, what started as looking turned into a few flowers we had to have. We had the best customer service and the staff were very knowledgeable. It was what we needed to kick off our planting season. Be back again for a few more must haves!

After years of planting and replacing live shrubbery in my garden pots, i finally decided to buy something that neither I nor the beautiful New Mexico sun could kill. Metal flowers!! I have passed Jericho Nursery on multiple occasion and was excited to pull in and examine their wares. They have a very large and diverse selection in every color and type imaginable! The employees were very friendly and helpful and I'm so happy that I won't have to plant new ones next year!

Expensive... knowledgeable, good quality on some plants. Nice selection of do-dads.

A visit to Jericho Nursery was perfect for Earth Day weekend. They had the bounty of roses and the best employees who can answer all your questions about planting and caring for whatever you buy. We were on a mission for tree and got great information about a desert tolerant Navajo Globe Willow. I also needed another rose to fill a spot in my yard and our helper painstakingly took us through the hundreds of roses that just arrived to explain the types and scents and how to plant them for best success. What a wonderful experience and we got exactly what we needed! Can't wait to see my new rose, Neptune, bloom!

On the hunt for back yard foliage and struggling to maintain what we already have, we stopped here. In the past we have had mixed luck with the employees. Wanted to give some time between visits to see if maybe attitudes had improved - nope. The employees we talked to came off as self-righteous acting as we were an imposition rather than someone willing to spend money on their products. Asked if 2 products he had recommended could be used together. He looked at and said "what do YOU think?" Ok - 1) don't talk down to me. 2) if I knew I wouldn't be asking... Seemed genuinely surprised when I said never mind I'll go someplace else where answers come without attitude. Yes, you may be knowledgeable, but sometimes people need that info make intelligent decisions. I will admit they have some pretty cool outdoor stuff. You can get that without much interaction with employees. There are other places in Albuquerque where your $$ will be appreciated!

I went here to get grass seed for my lawn. The staff was honest and knowledgeable. I was told it's too late in the season to seed my lawn and to wait until late August. They didn't try to make a sale, they simply told me what I needed to do and genuinely cared. I left with some great information! Jericho is a great place to just walk around and look at all the beautiful plants. It's quiet and peaceful. They have amazing pottery, too! It's a dirt parking lot so don't go in fancy shoes. There's usually water on the floors too as the plants are being taken care of. It's a great spot for all your gardening needs!

Jericho was my original gardening mentor when I bought my first home. I needed one. Growing up in the midwest, I quickly learned that planting, growing and harvesting anything in Albuquerque's north valley was an art unto itself; man, just wedging a shovel into that clay soil was a backbreaker. I originally visited because I needed help getting rid of a cluster of Chinese Elm that threatened my plumbing, and went home with stump killer. Next I was back for grass seed, then a gardening book, then a butterfly bush, and on and on. Today the business remains what it was back then: a solid resource for help. The owner, Rick Hobson, has a gardening radio show every other Saturday on KKOB, and he's all green thumbs. When it comes to plants for my outdoor spaces, I lean Plants of the Southwest or Osuna, but I still turn into this parking lot for the large (and often discount) selection of herbs/veggies/berries and, randomly, trees. I really like the tree selection, and believe me, I've broken my back shoving my shovel into north valley soil and planting more than 20 of them over the last decade. Because trees. Do you need another reason?

Went to four nurseries today, only one had an expert Gary who immediately helped me when they were swarmed with customers. He gave me details about how to grow rose bushes, even writing down what I needed to remember. I was really grateful for his knowledge and enthusiasm. Could not find anyone to help me at the other places. It is also the most beautiful nursery I was at today. Such good customer service and such a great selection of plants and yard art. Everyone who works there was so friendly. Will make this my go to spot.

I was told by a JERICHO employee I could receive a store credit on mt 2 Birch trees I purchased this past winter. when I asked to speak to the manager he said "Sorry you were Misinformed" per the words of the manager. No mercy for customers or exception to the policy of no store credit for me regarding my emergency water system emergency I informed him about. i am on a water system coop in the east mountains that are having to charge water haul assessment fee till they fix some leaking lines which meant I would not would not want to burden the water system using large amounts of water needed to grow 2 birch trees. he could CARE LESS about my emergency situation!I was only asking for a store credit and told the manager i could show proof of the water haul fee and that I did not want to burden the water system by having to use hundreds of gallons of water to grow 2 birch trees!He could CARE LESS about YOU HIS CUSTOMER and directed me to the FINE FINE PRINT that states no returns on clearance Items on the bottom of the receipt that is SOOOOOOOOO SMALL its NOT LEGABLE without a magnifier glass to barely read it!Its like they are trying to TRAP YOU to make a sale is exactly how I felt by having such small print on their receipts regarding their return policy! I consider this SNEAKY DECEPTIVE BUSINESS!!The emergency happened after the sale of the trees to me but again NO MERCY TO ANY CUSTOMER, WE GOT YOU with the SMALL PRINT even though he acknowledged I was MISINFORMED by his employee! Did not want to take ownership of employee mistake to save a customer!! BUYER BEWARE! THEY DONT CARE ABOUT THEIR CUSTOMERS. WILL NEVER SHOP at JERICHO AGAIN!!!

I love this place they had my dream plant the Thai monstera, but it's always been out of reach price wise and they worked with me to be able to afford it there are so many more varieties of plants there something for everybody and the staff is so kind and helpful. They also have so very cool Macaws that hang out there. If you love plants make sure you go here! Thank you Jericho Nursery staff
