Bloomers Home & Garden Center — Attraction in Washington Township

I agree with the other poor reviews! Moved here in May ‘22. My son and daughter in law bought me a gift certificate. In July ‘22 I bought the most beautiful magical crimson hydrangea. They instructed me how to plant it and sold me a bag of something to use in the planting process. It was so beautiful, people would come over to look at it on their walks. I went back and asked how to set it up winter, did as instructed. The following Spring, just leaves. Finally in June I took a picture in. The guy pointed out yes these are buds! I told them when I bought it, they wanted details. I told them I used a gift certificate. They spent over 20 minutes looking for the GC. It never bloomed that fall. The next spring,2023, just sticks! I went back again and was told it was only guaranteed for one year. I had a landscaper do some worked and instructed him what plants I wanted him to leave in. He told me the hydrangea was dead. Will NEVER purchase another thing again. Such poor service, I’m still angry. Sad thing, I have nothing now to celebrate the purchase of my new home.

The picture below is exactly how I left it until the following Spring ‘23. No trimming. How can I have a receipt when I used a gift certificate. And when I came back with a picture that following year of dry sticks I was told only guaranteed only a year, plus I was stupid enough to buy another bag of something for $12 to “help” it, which I eventually returned...

Bloomers is a great nursery and has been my go to for plants that you can't just pick up at bigbox stores like HD, Lowes, etc. This year I noticed that not only are they carrying staked plants (that are beautiful BTW) but they had some hoya Hindus. I bought a hoya and when I spoke to the person working in the garden center I was assured that there has been no issues with pests. I have around 300 house plants ranging from inexpensive to very expensive. Hindu ropes are extremely hard to get the bugs out of once you have them. So I took my plant home quarantined it. I started to prune it and found it covered in mealy bugs. They've been there for a while cause their nests looked like little igloos , not freshly made. I obviously never begging a new plant around my established plants for about 2-3 weeks. However this plant had so many bugs that I now am testing all my plants with systematic poison and I don't like that bit I can't take the change of then getting infested. I need risking the plant in the trash because there was no way I would ever get that amount of bugs off the plant with the type of leaves it has it makes perfect hiding spots for these bugs. I don't like leaving a review like this however bloomers is on the higher price end for plants so I feel like...

I love doing all my gardening shopping at Bloomers! Every year my family plants a vegetable garden and within a couple weeks, all the plants have more than doubled in size!

I also love Bloomers' buy three, get the 4th free sale they have every year on perennials. When we bought our house 5 years ago, all our gardens were completely overgrown. So, my husband and i took everything out so we could start fresh. I stupidly bought some flowers at the big box stores that didn't even last one season, even though they were perennials. I had also bought a few plants from Bloomers, which have been coming back year after year even bigger and healthier than the year before! From then on, i will only do my plant and flower shopping at Bloomers!

Finally, it is important to note how helpful the staff is. They will tell you when it's too early to start planting due to the danger of frost. They also help you select the right plants for the right location in your garden so everything will thrive! I honestly can't say enough great things...
