Mama's Garden Center

Jan 28th, 2024

I don't know who 'Mama' is, but she is no good. My friend was delivering some goods to Key West - you know it's a long drive down the Keys. But then his big rig truck died, kaput, just outside Mama's. It was 90 degrees and he had his three legged dog with him that desperately needed water. He went inside Mama's Garden Center to get some water for this poor pup. You know what the front desk lady told me:" Get out of here, you can't park here and we don't care about the dog." It was so sad. The front desk lady is terrible. We had to hitchhike down the road to a Shell station where they were able to help us. I should have learned my lesson. But then I wanted my house landscaping redone. I only knew of Mama's but that was a massive mistake. They told me they could draw up a landscaping plan and it would cost $475 to do so. Someone from Mama's came out to my house and I was told to contact Mama's in a few days. When I did, they said the cost for the plans was actually $15,000! They said the service charge was $475 to drive 5 minutes down the road and just to get some blueprints was $15,000. Insane. My house is tiny - it's a 2 bedroom and I have about 2,000sqft of garden space. These lunatics say it's going to cost $15,000. For $5,000 I got someone from Miami to come down, give me a bid and install all the trees. Mama is a bad lady; she's mean, unhelpful, a scam artist and downright a terrible gardener.

Nice place to get plants for the yard. Staff inside could be friendlier.

I felt the plant selection was limited and they were out of granite gravel. At checkout, I felt like I was bothering the lady working inside. Key West lacks a real nursery....
