Green Things

I've been into Green Things about 3 times after finding out about it on Google. I needed some houseplants for our office, but when I got there I found so so much more! This is the season when they are growing their poinsettias. It is just amazing! ALL of the greenhouses in the back part of the property are filled with poinsettias and they are now turning red and all the other colors. I asked if I could peek into the different greenhouses, and they welcomed me to go ahead. So friendly. In the main greenhouse they also have huge numbers of Christmas Cactus, Paperwhites and all of these little gift pots of succulents, houseplants, different bulbs in really cute colorful pots. Besides that, there were these giant poinsettias almost as tall as I am. They are really helpful with information too. I can't wait to go back! more

I've shopped at a lot of nurseries in Tucson for a lot of years. I do landscaping for a living. These people give good advice. They are really straight forward in their advice and know what they are talking about. Their selection is good for Tucson. They have the right plants and always keep them in stock. If you need pottery they have a lot of that at good prices. more

great view, great service, convenient, close, great prices! I hadn't been here for a few years but needed a present for my mother's birthday. It's not the same old Green Things, what a change! Huge! I wasn't expecting the pottery, but it was amazing. I walked around for hours, enjoyed the view, the unique plants. Great experience! Pros: Houseplants, Cactus, Annuals, Shrubs, Trees, Everything! Cons: Hard to find more

It was 110 today and we still had to go there. Shrubs and houseplants we have never heard of! The staff answered all our questions and we learned a lot! We took a break in the greenhouse - nice and cool! They have signs on River Road, so it is easier to find now. Great selection of trees, citrus, figs, pomegranates, apples, peaches, apricots. more

I have lived in Tucson for a short time and discovered this place after moving into my home. The changes that have occurred are amazing! The variety of plants, which I found out that most are grown in their green house, made it very hard for me to choose which plants I wanted to decorate the outside of my home. Their are wonderful benches to sit on to view the mountains. I really enjoy visiting there. Pros: The variety of plants, the knowledgeable staff, the adorable cats! Cons: The muddy walk ways. more

I don't understand what people are raving about. It took me 45 minutes just to find the place to only find very badly treated plants. i went to Harlows and got great service and healthy plants... Pros: Is there any Cons: Everything else more

Huge selection of plants, and the best selection of pottery I've seen anywhere - so many styles, colors, really unique pots and fountains. We weren't sure what to do in our yard, so they came out and gave us a lot of ideas for only $35. They are so friendly and helpful. We ended up doing our yard in mostly cactus and native plants, but they have annuals, perennials, and the most houseplants I've ever seen in their indoor greenhouse! more

Unbelievable selection of pottery, all colors and styles. We spent 2 hours roaming the pottery section. Really unique styles and colors. More houseplants than I've seen anywhere, and many hard to find like Pachira braids. They had 8' Ficus Trees for only $80.00 - cheaper than Home Depot!! We found the shrubs for our yard, palms for our pool area, even cactus. more

We ended up renting plants for our daughter's wedding there. Beautiful palms, ficus trees and ferns. They even delivered and set up the plants! Great customer service, and GREAT prices! Pros: Huge selection Cons: Difficult to find more

I recently moved to the Tucson area, and a neighbor recommended Green things to buy my plants. Wow, what a place to shop! They have the BEST looking plants I've seen in AZ. The staff there is worth taking note of too. Everyone that worked there had a smile on their face, and seemed to truly enjoy their job. I can't say enough about this place! a little hard to find, but definitely worth it. And they have classical music in the background. What a breath of fresh air. Pros: great plants, good deals Cons: a little hard to find more

Green Things is hard to find, but well worth the effort. As an avid plant-lover, I have not seen a better selection of houseplants in the state! They have everything: pothos, marginata, dracaena, spider plant, schefflera, all types of ficus, chinese evergreen, money tree and lots more! They also carry a nice selection of indoor blooms such as begonia, cyclamen, kalanchoe, gloxinia, exacum, rose, hibiscus, mums, african violet, and more. It is easy to spend the afternoon enjoying the tropical surroundings and shopping for any plant. Did I mention that they are also the best deal in town? Almost everything in 10"" is under $20--most near $10! You can also get all of your landscaping, bedding and outdoor (including cactus and succulents) here at the same time as your indoor selections. Call ahead for specific directions** Pros: Best selection and best prices and a petting zoo! Cons: Braving the River Rd. construction. more
