Lisa Arnold Nursery Sales

I came to this nursery looking for large pittosporum bushes. They did have rather large bushes of the variety I wanted, however when the salesmen pulled them out, they were wiry and bear in the middle. All of them. The salesman, (who well get to in a minute) ASSURED me the bush would fill out in a few months, as pitto grows very fast (which is why I wanted this particular bush). Well a year later and see my picture attached.
I called back and asked for advice and I was told to prune the back a little bit, not too much. So I did some light pruning in February while the trees were dormant as I was told. NOTHING.
The salesman that helped me seemed and looked like a recovering alcoholic, slightly red skin on his face and trouble keeping his balance. Not to mention dressed like he might have been homeless. No shirt identifying him as working there either. There was no one else around so I was stuck.
I haven’t been back and wont ever be back. Go to the calaveras nursery where their plants are guaranteed.

Very knowledgeable staff and awesome prices. There isn’t much of a selection, but what they have is good quality. I have been here a few times to get some Japanese Maples and a few flowers. This place is a must stop if you are looking to landscape your yard.

I am an account manager at a landscape company and I have been working with LA nursery for years. They have higher quality plant material than most and can get specialty items in a pinch. David, Chris, and Steve work hard and are great in coordinating big orders. Highly recommend their services

First visit to LA Nursery Jan/​2013 and really loved the selection and prices. Was helped by two different individuals and they had different information to give us on Birch trees which we were there to buy. Glad to have the second guy give us more information so we could make a better decision. My suggestion is to research your plants or take your smart phone with you. Very nice place and I would go back. Not sure on seasonal small plants but if you are landscaping this is a great place to go.

This is a beautiful nursery, and very inspiring. Typically we head to the next nursery (Calavaras), as this one isn’t open on Sundays. So we made the effort to head over on a Saturday, and I’m really pleased we did.
LA Nursery has a nice combo of being budget conscience, but not feeling like a bargain basement. They have done a fine job setting up inspiring display areas, and making me itch to get home & plant. We were able to basically fill our truck for about $ 500.00. This is a LOT of plants! We purchased lots of azaleas (16.00 each for a nice large flowering bush), hydrangeas, and basically anything that looked flowering & beautiful.
My only complaint would be the assistance we received. The woman helping us really wasn’t a help at all. If anything, she was just annoying — and seemed to dog us around. Ditch her, and they’d get 5 stars.
