Stringer Nursery

Helping a family member bet new plants for her new house. I stumbled on Stringer Nursery by accident and I am so glad it did.
After leaving I looked this place up and saw several reviews saying it was old and dated. It is a nursery. What are you expecting the Hilton? It has a delightful earthy feel. It is described as more of a organic nursery. They even have live chickens running around. Buddy Fay is the woman who helped us and she should win a prize for customer service. She was such a joy, she spent over a hour with us, making suggestions and taking time to answer questions. It even started raining and she said I don’t mind getting wet if you don’t, so we got soaked.
I wish they had a place like this on OKC. We found several great plants. Hope to visit here again.

I love Stringer. They have a fantastic selection of plants, an incredibly knowledgeable staff, quality gardening tools, and a wide variety of soils, mulches, and fertilizers. Most of the friendly staff will be able to answer almost any question you have, and give advice. Try to find that kind of help at Lowes or Home Depot and you’ll come up empty handed. I also like that they focus on organic gardening. It’s not necessarily evident by labels or signs, it’s more of a way of life. For instance, they don’t have certain types of mulch that are treated and toxic (red and black, to be specific) and they make top notch garden soil mixture that has compost and peat moss mixed in. The prices are reasonable as well, especially considering the quality and the service.
It’s a quirky place, with a lot of personality. There are lots of animals around here. Don’t be surprised if you see chicken wandering through the greenhouse.

This used to be a really nice nursery. Now the stock mainly looks dead, the woman behind the cash register could win the prize for the rudest sales clerk in America, and the facility is falling down. There is no way they will stay in business with all the nurseries in Tulsa with nice, helpful employees.
