The Green Thumbers Reviews

★ 5★ 4★ 3★ 2★ 1Green Thumbers made my wedding magical!! They completely captured what I wanted and my flowers were the prettiest part of the day. They met with us whenever we needed and adjusted prices multiple times for us adding and removing things. 10/10 customer service and 10/10 product. Thank you all so much!
August 27 · Emily KruseThe shop itself is great with attentive staff. The outside staff doesn’t get that many stars. I would never have them plant a tree again unless you want it trashed and have them plant at half the depth that it should be. They were really unreliable and before they got here days later, I already regretted allowing them to plant my tree. I measured the root ball and it was 22-24” and they wanted to stop digging at 14”. They could just mound up some dirt and mulch. That way it would fall down in a stiff wind. I was told they’d bring root stimulator as well. That didn’t happen. I will never go through that again.
August 25 · Shar KayThe Green Thumbers truly captured my vision for our wedding last week. There was a miscommunication in pricing when we originally booked with them, but everyone we worked with leading up to our wedding was very helpful with coming up with solutions in order to make sure our vision was carried through! I definitely would recommend them!
June 22 · Grace MottetThey really captured my vision for my wedding perfectly. We traded a few emails on what I was looking for and drove up from Chicago only once to go over everything I need for the wedding. I felt very confident that they would create something beautiful. They went up and beyond, the flowers were stunning. My bouquet, the bridesmaids bouquets, the flower decoration for the arch, and etc. everything was beautiful. I I wouldn't have changed a thing! I highly recommended using The Green Thumbers, they were amazing to work with!
December 05 · Chelsea PetlickiI originally stopped in because I wanted to check out the coffee shop. It was nice that Aroma was situated inside Green Thumbers because I'm also a major plant enthusiast.I think the olive oil and other gourmet foods they sell are nice. However, I think their plants are grossly expensive. They cost 4x as much as what I pay at home on the East Coast. Maybe they're more difficult to cultivate here, but I've been to other gardening stores in Iowa that sold the same things at a fraction of the price. I would like to say that the prices may be justified because the plants are high quality but I saw a lot of bruising, a lot of browning on leaves, and overall poor watering and soil quality. I've honestly never seen such simple house plants so expensive and yet lacking so much.Maybe it's an off-season. Maybe they're understaffed. I bought a purple Oxalis Triangularis and re-potted it immediately. It's bouncing back, but I think I would rather buy plants from Etsy and save Green Thumbers for a leisurely stroll. The whole facility is beautiful inside but they've really got to do something about their house plants. The staff is really helpful and welcoming, otherwise. That's a plus.
