BLUE MOUNT NURSERY

We purchased a new home in 2010 and had to hold off on doing the landscaping that we really wanted to. 6 years later we decided it was time to make the outside of out home look great. A neighbor suggested that we should go to Blue Mount. We were amazed at the amount of plants they had in stock. Their friendly staff helped us all the way through our landscaping ideas. Their gift shop is wonderful and I intend on coming back to do some of our Christmas shopping. Love this treasure.

Don?t waste your money at Blue Mount--plants are over priced and customer service is terrible. I recently purchased a topiary from Blue Mount that I was assured by staff would be low-maintenance and durable. The plant had a small brown spot when I purchased it, but they said it was nothing to worry about. Within days of planting, the topiary began to die. I called Blue Mount on numerous occasions requesting advice on how to care for my dying shrub. They were less than helpful in providing guidance, but I eventually gathered that the plant needed a specialized daily watering schedule and a special pesticide. Even after closely following all instructions, nothing saved the plant. Having given it all I could for about a month, I brought the plant back to the nursery hoping for a refund. They refused a refund, only offering a 50% plant replacement credit?for the same plant. I explained that having had issues with this type of plant, I didn?t want to spend more money to go through the same hassle. They refused to listen to me, even when I asked if the credit could instead be for annuals or some other plant. The manager didn?t offer any compromise, and insisted there was nothing they could do for me. Though I wanted to support local business, I just can?t justify throwing money away at this nursery. Next time, I will just buy my shrubs from Lowes or Home Depot (they offer a full refund for a year after purchase, regardless of why the plant dies).
