Southwest Cactus

We totally understand the ratings here from many people. We too had to remind them to come by and install our Saguaro and Ocotillo several times over the same amount of days. However, in the end, they delivered and were absolutely professional in every way. Detailed, meticulous and friendly; and threw in a few other succulents to make up for the delay. Luis and his team are a very small business and because of what they do, perhaps don't always communicate as promptly as we prefer in this day and age. Advice is to keep on them and you'll get results.

My Argentine Saguaro fell. Ricardo replied quickly, asked for pictures and told me it could be saved. 2 days later, Victor and his crew replanted it, protected it against disease and stabilized it with great care. They both gave detailed information, multiple tips and were very attentive. Highly recommend them!

Contact them they came gave me a price and went back on their price not reliable or professional. I didn't used them .

I recently contacted Paco to help with a Saguaro cactus. He had it advertised online and I had been looking for something similar, he offered a great deal if we would help dig and replant the cactus which I had no problem, my friend and I helped them and saved hundreds of dollars by doing so. We are in love with our new cactus and the whole neighborhood is obsessed with our 20 ft cactus. I would highly recommend Paco for your cacti needs. I am currently waiting on a couple of golden barrels from him and will update once secured.

Incredible services and prices. I thought they might be open on this Sunday. I drove there and it was closed.I emailed them and within minutes I received a reply that they now only meet through appointments, but we could meet in 20 minutes. I met Paco and his young son. I still can't believe what happened next : I chose 2 Saguaro cactus that were in the ground in their nursery, Paco took them out, brought them to my house with some sand/wash material, dug the holes, planted them in my yard, reset the gravel around them and it looks like these Saguaro were born here. Paco is super friendly, knowledgeable and smart. I am so happy, you have no idea. To wake up now and look out the window and see Saguaro, it is a dream come true. Very hard working young man, from a young business. Thank you.

Luis was the one to call my husband and said they had cash. Luis is not the one who came and got the cactus. We were told that they would Zelle us the payment that night. This company got the cactus and have not paid for it! It's been months, more than 6. There is an excuse every time I contact them. I have every text message where Luis states payment will be made and then nothing happens. So, in my opinion, and probable the laws, they stole the cactus from us! This was not their first time they have owed us money for months, but by God it is the last time. I will keep sending them text messages until they make the payment they owe us.I would not recommend this company if you are the ones selling the cactus.

One of the last text messages I received from the owner/ operator was "I wont forge about you" after about five no shows on scheduled dates. Now non-responsive. Undependable and unfortunate. Nice guy with a promising business. Flawed by bad business practices, and broken promises. If your timing just happens to align with his schedule, you will most likely have a positive experience. But dont bet on it happening more than once.

They seem nice & professional at first, but don't trust anything they say. If you aren't spending $10k+ w/ them, you are ignored & treated as trash. They will make a lot of promises-but not deliver. I've reached out many times & made appointments w/ both brothers, that they have broken for months.(Yes I said months. It's been over 3 & 1/2months now) They'd say they were coming to my town & bringing my 5 cactuses for install, only to have a no call no show on the day promised-a date that they themselves had set. I would clear my schedule, cancel my plans & wait all day for entire weekends for them to be here-then nothing. They'd bail & make me chase after them through multiple texts, calls, and FB msgs.I am understanding & extremely patient. People get busy. So I gave them other chances. Both Vic and Ric had let me know when they'd be here, and have not shown. I decided to give them 1 last chance. I kindly let them know I needed my next appt w/ them to be set in stone. Well they let me know that solid date. I was relieved. I was finally getting them here & can move my other projects along. I adjusted my much needed vacation & even came home 2 days early, since it was for sure this time. Even scheduled my boulder & rock deliveries around that day & scheduled my new custom fence install around them actually coming after months of waiting. It was 100%. Well....I hadn't heard from them, so on my drive home from my trip, since they are coming tomorrow, I contacted Ric. He writes me back with a lame excuse. Says he's going to Texas and tried to put me off another week. Then offers me a garbage consolation prize of a free barrel-which was insulting. I can get that at HD. I don't want a barrel cactus. I needed them to be here like they promised. How long have you known you were going to Texas instead of our appt? You didn't think to let me know the second you knew this? Of course not. You wouldn't have said anything-you would have just not shown up like the 4+ other times-I had to reach out at 9pm the night before the date you yourself had set. I was going to populate my entire front & backyard w/ cactus installed by them. But I guess higher paying jobs win.I can't remember the last time a service made me feel more disrespected & cost me more money & time because of their rudeness & lies. Summer's coming & I'm months behind on multiple projects because of the domino effect they caused. Both brothers. Ricardo Chavez & Vic & their various family/friends spam post all over FB and Craigslist. Stay far away from this cluster of unorganized uncaring fools. They laughably try to expand their service to areas like Yuma when it's clearly beyond their competence. If you have deadlines or a project that is time sensitive, this is not your crew. If you do decide to choose them...don't be surprised if you are sitting there cactus-less, scratching your head, disrespected, ghosted, & left on "read".

Best cactus company in Tucson. They move some of the largest plants in all of Arizona.

Our saguaro cactus was starting to lean a bit and we needed a company to straighten it out. We seen Southwest Cactus working in the neighborhood and stopped by to talk with Luis and Paco. They were the nicest. They immediately went to see our cactus and said they will be over as soon as they completed their current job to fix the leaning cactus. They straightened out our cactus with no issues. I would highly recommend this company for all your cactus needs.
