We had them come help with our grading issues to keep water away from the house. They were able to help us out and make our yard look amazing with some extra trees, plants and a patio area. The staff was wonderful and Mike and Bill were very helpful in answering questions and making sure we were happy with the final product. Overall great experience working with them.

I hope this review will help people avoid frustration with the so-called “Forever Green Landscape Designer Team.” Last August, I contacted “Forever Green Landscape Designer Bill” to trim my overgrown Rose of Sharon bushes and also remove unwanted plants in the front flower bed, then replace them with new plants. I did not hear any schedule from Bill before I left home outside the country. On 9/21/24, I saw a phone message left the day before that Forever Green folks would come to do the work. I quickly emailed Bill, saying that I was not home. He responded that he would make sure the new plants would be watered and taken care of until I got home (see pic). When I arrived home, I saw all the new plants were dead (see picture) and the Rose of Sharon brushes were bunched up—not much of the trimming was done (see picture). I called Bill. He came over and was so surprised that the plants were dead and the brushes were not trimmed. I was furious and said the work was very unprofessional and unacceptable. I requested the work needed to be redone and made sure he brought people who knew how. Bill came with two guys. They trimmed the bushes and replanted the new plants. They left an area of 3x3 feet empty in the front bed. Bill left these guys before the work was completed. If these were designers, they would scale the area before planting. I requested the crew to pass on to Bill that i needed a plant to be planted at that bare spot. Bill never returned the request. I do not recommend this place to anyone because they are not a designer nor credible!

Recently visited forever green and had absolutely no idea what to get or what I needed to prep for my garden. The staff took their time (almost closing time as well!) to walk me thru recommendations and answer my questions. Really was impressed with the level of dedication and knowledge.

I used to shop here for everything. I enlisted their service to limb up a maple tree. I was charged over $400 to snip 7 branches. They didn't even need to use a saw the branches were so small. I wouldn't call that a lumb up.
Then I ordered three trees and had them planted. One of the trees has never been properly supported. I've gone back and forth with them on this over 2-3 years. They need to support the tree higher up the trunk. Not difficult. Don't need to be a plant expert to figure this out. As I've tried to get support from them on this I've been ignored, condescended to, dismissed, and straight up disrespected. One man came out and snapped the supports off and said he'd be right back to fix it. That was in October. The tree had to go through an Iowa winter with no supports because he didn't come back and fix it until spring. Terrible service. Gross attitudes. I'm not going back, and as my neighbors have seen it all, they say they aren't going there either. Lowe's is better for selection, prices, service, and for being treated like a human.

What a wonderful experience! I worked with Bill on the consultation, plan and estimate. Quick, easy, and reasonable. The crew was outstanding and made sure they knew exactly how/where I wanted things placed and they were so neat and respective of my property as well as the neighbors. Bill called at the end of the day to make sure everything met my expectations. I had a fence removed, a row of lilac bushes planted, and other flowering shrubs and plants installed. Top notch. Highly recommend.

I wish I could give anything more than 1 star right now. I love their store and nursery... but I can't for the life of me get them to communicate about having a job done by them!
I contacted them THREE MONTHS ago. After 6 weeks of calling and emailing, they FINALLY sent a quote. I replied right back that it sounded reasonable. No response. 6 MORE weeks later, after I've tried multiple times to contact them, I get another email saying "sorry, here's a quote" with the same quote I received before. So I asked why we are in this limbo zone 3 months later... no reply as of now. I just want to be able to SCHEDULE A TIME FOR THE WORK TO BE DONE.

Hidden gem!! If you have a gardening need, go here first. Super cute local place that also does some community events (plant your own vegetable garden, etc). Lots of interesting pots and garden decor, reasonably priced basic supplies, and a large lawn ornament/statue section.

I love this place; you can find everything you need for your pants. It may be a bit pricey, but it's definitely worth it

It's been six weeks since they came out to do a site visit on a landscaping job...I'm still waiting for an estimate, which was supposed to arrive in "about two weeks." I'll never understand that kind of business practice. I guess they have all the customers they need.

Hidden gem!! If you have a gardening need, go here first. Super cute local place that also does some community events (plant your own vegetable garden, etc). Lots of interesting pots and garden decor, reasonably priced basic supplies, and a large lawn ornament/statue section.I came for an air plant and found a large healthy one for an excellent price. Good air plant size, variety, and quality IF they stay in stock! I'm kicking myself for not finding this place sooner.
