About Shoal Creek Nursery
Shoal Creek Nursery has transformed from a neighborhood spot into a larger plant retailer. While the phone support is now automated, the nursery still offers a fun atmosphere with a nice selection of indoor and outdoor plants, pots, and unique metal garden art. Customers appreciate the knowledgeable staff, who assist with styling and carrying purchases. Visitors often leave inspired for their gardens, and many find beautiful plants at great prices, like the South Africa Sunset rose. The nursery is noted for its high-quality plants, which have shown to be resistant to local diseases, making it a reliable choice for gardeners. Despite the growth, the nursery maintains a friendly vibe, enhanced by charming details like a waterfall and nursery kitties. Prices may be higher than big box stores, but many customers feel the quality justifies the cost, especially for plants suited for Austin's climate.
Staff is super helpful and actually knows their stuff - they’re always down to answer questions or give advice without being pushy. Oh, and the cats that hang around the place are a bonus. Friendly crew all around.
Prices are fair for Austin. Not the cheapest, but you’re paying for quality plants and people who actually know what they’re talking about.
Excellent in town nursery with a wide selection of plants large and small. They have every tool, every IPM pest/pathogen management product, and the wisdom of their long time staff to advise you. All the staff from the checkout folks to the plant-centered folks are very knowledgeable. They have a great selection of natives and quality cultivars that do well in Austin. Lots of indoor plants too.
My new favorite nursery! We visited for the first time this past weekend and I’m kicking myself for never coming here before. They have a great selection of garden plants, flowers, shrubs, and their prices are very reasonable - on par with, and some less than, the big box places. I was looking for one particular plant - Pride of Barbados and the employee I asked went above and beyond trying to find out when they would have more in stock. Highly recommend!
