Rare plants, honest prices, real people who know your yard
Our story
Tucked into Atlantic Ave, Bamboo Nursery & Garden Supplies is a small mom-and-pop operation with a plant selection that punches way above its size. Black bamboo, King palms, different varieties of citrus, and all kinds of tropical plants share the lot alongside general nursery stock, the kind of variety customers say they can't find anywhere else nearby.
We keep our prices honest, often a fraction of what the big box nurseries charge for the same healthy plants. When you visit, you'll likely be helped by Raquel herself, working through the details of your yard or patio with you to find the right fit.
We also believe in giving back to the neighborhood — we've donated plants to local schools to help bring some green and color to their campuses.
What customers say
“This mom and pop nursery is tiny, but the plants healthy and the prices great. We recently landscaped our backyard and bought 5 King Palms, 8 black bamboo, and about 5 assorted other tropical plants. We never could have afforded to buy all these at a big retailer like Moon Valley — which is a great nursery, but literally 10 times more expensive. Raquel was so lovely... The plants are really thriving and growing after transplanting.”
“Wonderful nursery with a wide variety of outdoor plants. Went for some bamboo for a few planters on my patio and found a very unique selection of plants and trees. The woman who owns the place is very nice and helpful. I'd recommend visiting.”
“Different varieties of citrus, bamboo, and pretty much anything you can think of!”
