SummerWinds Nursery – Cupertino

Everyone is very friendly. The plants and displays are very pretty and inspirational. The prices are good. They don’t always have some of the more exotic plant varieties but what they have is generally healthy and well cared for.

Each year, it becomes more difficult to find a healthy Christmas tree. They are often dry and sometimes moldy inside. A friend of mine found her tree at Summerwind and suggested that I take a look.
All of the trees were open and in water.
I found a lovely Noble Fir. The guys working outside were very nice. They prepped the tree and loaded in my car.
Super.

Ok, each SummerWinds Nursery is quite different. They may all carry plants, trees, soil, and gardening supplies. Each one carries more plants, or trees, then the other. Each one also carries more specific plants and trees. This SummerWinds Nursery carried more plants, then trees. This SummerWinds also seemed smaller then some of them. Staff did not help me load the trees into my car.
I also told them to call specific branches to see if a certain tree was at another location. They were unable to do so. They did call, but it seemed like the person on the receiving line of the phone call, had no idea what the person was asking for. She said there was no other way to look it up other then the barcode and the name given. The name given on the tag did not match the register. So, the other worker, had no idea what was being asked. There has to be another way for a staff member to call and see if that specific tree or plant is there with the right label. I was quite disappointed because I drove to like 4 SummerWinds to find a specific tree. Yes, I did find them. But not all the SummerWinds carried them. So, PLEASE SUMMERWINDS, fix this.

What a great place! Very tidy with the plants well organized and clearly labeled. Lots of choices for vegetables. One of the staff, Aman, checked in with us a couple of times to see if we were finding what we wanted without hovering or being a pest.
Their prices were much lower than some of the other local nurseries. Will definitely return.

I have not been to this Summerwinds but I did hire a Garden coach from the Cupertino location. Sharon was amazing and some of the best money I have spent in awhile. Sharon went over every plant in my garden! We discussed total care for each plant (pruning, fertilizing, any issues currently going on the plant, etc). We also discussed ways I could layer the plants in my garden to have more color year round. I fell 100% more confident in my gardening skills now then before Sharon visited!

Beautiful nursery with an abundant selection of flowers, shrubs, trees and vegetables. A month after planting my winter garden the baby veg I purchased here are doing excellent. Very friendly and helpful staff — will definitely be back!

Good nursery for a chain nursery. Decent selection of plants (vegetables), although I’ve seen better in other parts of country. When you ask for help they go out of their way to help you. But you may have to ask for help.

This is my first visit here and I had a very good experiences. They have many kinds of flowers and vegetable. Also I found a lot of plant containers. The price is fair also.

Went over the weekend and spoke with Kim (Manager of the store on De Anza Blvd. in Cupertino). She took the time to talk to us and understand our problem and actually came to our house to look at the problem we had with our tree! Needless to say we followed her recommendations and will be shopping at this store exclusively. Thanks for making me believe that personal customer service is not dead in this age of big box stores and internet.

I was very happy here and bought a large fern for the pool patio’s area, flowers, and potting soil. I am currently renting and was horrified to see that the landlord’s plants were mostly dead and full of spiders after winter. I tore almost everything out and started over with the beautiful plants here. They took the soil to my car which was helpful.
I grew up in a Ohio rural nursery so I already know the botanical names of plants since I started selling them at age six.

The staff here is completely clueless when it comes to the botanical names of the plants… Home Depot staff down the street know more about the plants then these clowns.

This is a great place to stock up on plants and garden essentials for the spring. The staff here is very friendly (they brought the bags of soil we bought out to our car for us!), and they have a good selection of plants and other garden staff (including everything from furniture to ladybug houses). I think they do a bit better on flowers than veggies, but they still have a better selection of veggies than most places.
