This is THE PLACE for all trees, plants, bamboo and flowers etc that are not native here! In other words if you want your yard to look completely different than everyone else then shop here. Bring your money, I always leave with more than my little crappy honda odyssey can handle! Wonderful staff with advise too!

Stopped in for the first time today and was very happy with our experience. Kim helped with a few suggestions on what would do well in our pots, and we walked out with a variety of cool plants and flowers. I would recommend visiting this nursery if you’re looking for healthy plants and a great experience.

This place is amazing! My MIL loves guava and I had difficulty finding Ruby Supreme Guavas because they're so popular. Found it here and they have a wide selection of fruit trees and everyone is super helpful! I would highly recommend visiting to get your forever plant 🤗

Shamus and his team are always happy to help answer our questions. They are the only nursery in Phoenix that I’ve seen carry Spanish Lime/Mamoncillo/Anoncillo. Many tropical trees to pick from. Guavas, Mangos, Sapote, you name it. There is also a Facebook page where the community helps each other out. Always a wonderful experience dropping by the nursery.

Green Life is ‘interesting’—the proprietor boasts have several hundred cultivars of different plants and upon arrival and viewing, you realize it’s simply false advertising—this is especially true with plumeria where on social media they boast they have several hundred and on site I saw perhaps 100 at best. Staffing is adequate but more interested in sales than educating the consumer. Is this because Shamus is only interested in the bottom line or is he simply not interested in return happy customers? Hmmmmm… Another issue… No public bathroom! Okay, you drive to your destination and your kidneys are calling and the employees tell you to go to the worm farm next door! Come on! How cheap and lazy can a business be—especially when their hand is outreached for your money… Sad—very sad! The nursery has some beautiful specimen plants and a huge selection of exotic fruit trees, most of which require huge amounts of water and not the best for growing in the arid desert climate. IMO, if you’re in the vicinity, it may be worth checking out but I personally would not make a special trip.
