I stumbled upon this location by accident and immediately visited. I was super impressed by the huge variety of plants, trees and anything you could think of to start your own garden. I was a very disappointed because everything is extremely expensive. I was able to find what I was looking for but I but I noticed that some of the plants had pests and some plants were in very bad shape too. I asked for help from an older white lady and she was very dismissive and kept correcting me with an attitude. When I tried to ask her a second question she ignored me and she walked away. Im not going back.

Merrifield has a ton of different options to choose from, whether they’re for outside or inside use. Their staff is also very friendly and helpful. My only complaint would be how expensive everything is in comparison to other stores selling similar products. I still recommend checking this place out though!

Merrifield Garden Center is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful garden centers in the DC area that offers an extensive range of plant selections and decorations. They also have a large selection of Christmas decorations and trees that might leave you amazed. The pictures showcase the impressive collection of Christmas decorations available for sale. Additionally, the staff is incredibly friendly, making your shopping experience even more delightful.

If you need mulch and need it fast, go here. Merrifield Garden Center can provide you with quick service and deliver the mulch straight to your car. We got 6 bags of hardwood mulch and were in and out in 5 minutes flat... Can't beat that!

We selected 36 trees and shrubs from Merrifields for a large landscaping project at my church. We received the highest quality plants, plus very helpful service from the staff onsite on several visits. Can't speak highly enough for this company and their staff. They had all of the plants that we wanted, including many native plants that can be hard to find.Postwinter update: all the trees and shrubs are still in great shape and are budding!

Always a great place to come and look for garden supplies, from tools to seeds, from plants to full grown trees of all kinds. I spoke with Jay (1 of 2 full time horticulturalists) this time about killing off bamboo and he was so thoroughly helpful in giving recommendations. Yes you can go elsewhere and find things cheaper, but you can’t put a price on experience, knowledge and true customer caring staff. Highly recommend visiting Merrifield. A recommendation form a life long resident of the area and a locally based General Contractor.

What a beautiful place!! I just wanted to get a chair and a drink and sit in the middle of all the plants. It was uplifting and what made It even better is Tony. What a great customer service. I went to Merrifield looking for a bloodgood japanese maple tree and found exactly what I wanted. I felt sad walking away without the persimon and the fig tree and I wish I had space and backyard for them but will definitely comeback very often . This place is therapy!!

Merrifield Garden is one of the largest nurseries in the area. They have a large assortment of things for your yard/garden. The products are well maintained by a large contingent of extremely knowledgeable staff. They have plenty of staff available to assist you with your purchase. I am always impressed with how packed their parking lot is on both weekend days.

First thing, all of the people who work at Merrifield gardening are very helpful, and all will do their best to resolve your questions. Years ago, I had Merrifield plant a bunch of bushes, and they did a great job. This time I went to get a scoop on top soil and a few bags of others. I didn't have to ask or even touch anything. Truck loaded and another happy customer.

What an absolute delight it was to come here for the first time. It was bigger than I thought and the selection of indoor and outdoor plants, trees, flowers, and merchandise was incredible. We ended up buying an indoor gardenia plant from the greenhouse section. Didn’t catch the staff member’s, but she was very friendly and knowledgeable. She answered our questions and offered some advice. We will be booking a landscaping consultation very soon!

Came here for some fun plant shopping for indoor plants. They have such a variety in their greenhouse. All of the plants were in healthy condition. They have common and unique plants. I was able to purchase a medium sized prayer plant $34.99, string of pearls $12.99, and a marbled pathos for $8.99. Additionally I found these beautiful off white/tan terracotta pots. Overall, prices are on the higher side but the quality is high. Less unique plants like the pathos run similar pricing as Lowes/ Home Depot but better value. I will definitely be back, my plants are already happy at home and no sign of over watering, pests, or disease. Would recommend this location for your indoor plant needs

Fist time visit and I will certainly be back. I interacted with at least 7 staff members and everyone was amazing. They were friendly, knowledgeable and patient with questions.Selection was out of this world and it only comes down to how much room you have in your budget and in your vehicle 😄EDIT: Adding pictures of flowers in the ground with stones, still need more rocks and mulch surrounding them.

Good vibes here. Excellent and eclectic selection that is fun to browse and makes for good gifts. Staff is excellent and knows about the plants they're selling. I bought my partner a bonsai tree for Christmas and she is absolutely in love.

It was my first time visiting this place, but I have worked with center in the past for my condo building. Both have been great experiences!Plenty of staff to help customers with random gardening questions and a lot of cashiers available to get you in and out quickly. Seems like a wide variety of flowers, shrubs, trees, soil pots, and gardening tools. It was cold spring day when I stopped by so most of the flowers were in the green houses to protect them from frost. I was able to find the quality potting soil which is what I was looking for in my trip today. I’ll be back for sure to get some flowers when it’s a bit warmer outside. Parking- plenty of spots to park. Definitely recommend checking them out for your gardening needs!

The smallest of the three Merrifield Garden Centers but certainly nothing to sniff at. There is always more than enough selection. I am very happy with my Quince I got the other day. Always very knowledgeable. Thank you John for your help in choosing my Quince.

Great selection, good prices. Generally fantastic customer service.I’d leave five stars, but one of the employees there was short with me today in a weird, condescending way and it left a bad taste in my mouth.

We have always love MGC and purchase our Christmas tree, garlands, spring plantings and a variety of miscellaneous items from them for over 25 years. On Tuesday I walked in to purchase my annual two large containers of Preen weed preventer and the price was $69.99. The last time I purchased it last year and the cost was either $39.99 or $42.99. I looked online and found the same thing for $32..29. Home Depot had it at $38.99 and priced matched me. I saved over $70. Seriously MGC I love you but that is taking inflation way too far. You may no longer be my first stop. Very disappointed.

We had an issue early on getting them to come out and communicate. But David and Danny at Gallows made it up and sent out the best crew to take care of our entire yard. We are very happy with the workmanship and professionalism of the specific crew that did our yard. Kudos to Dan as well at Gainesville for stepping up. THANK YOU AGAIN!

Sooo expensive... but the selection and quality can't be beat. Also, the people that work there are very knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful. If money isn't an object, this is the place to go. I typically go there to ask questions and get information, which is a way better option than researching on the internet.I recently went there to buy seeds. They have a better variety of seeds than home depot down the street and all their seeds are certified organic. I also wanted to buy blueberry bushes, but, while they do have great variety, their bushes are very expensive - think $40-$50 avg for 1 gal. Ended up going to Lowes in Chantilly, which had Legacy blueberries at $27 for 3.25 gal (and could have bought 1 gal for $13). In terms of blueberries, I'd probably do Lowes -> online -> marryfield (based on selection/ price)

Love this place. Definitely came back to see one of my favorite Garden Ladies Anouk. She wasn’t there tonight which was sad because she was/is the best.Last night, the experience was good and had all the right items to fill up our living room for Christmas this year.Merrifield Garden Center has a nice size lot with plenty of garden options and the employees take care of it. The location was easy to find and parking was simple.The only thing missing was my very favorite person at Merrifield, bring her back!!! She is like Christmas Joy withk all her super sweet plant and flower knowledge. I’ll definitely come again, especially if my Angel 😇 Anouk G is there.

This is a great place for all things plants and landscaping. It is so beautiful to just walk around and take in the beauty. A very large selection of plants for your home.

Amazing selection of flowers, trees and excellent service. We got great advice from a senior citizen employee at the lawn section, he even gave us a poem he made about roses

This place is adult Disney Land ❤️ I ordered 8 cubic yards of compost, garden soil and mulch to be delivered to DC. The man on the phone was so charming and helpful. The delivery driver Miguel navigated narrow back alleys in an enormous truck with what can only be described as extraordinary skill. The soil quality is excellent! I went to the nursery this weekend and was very impressed with their huge selection and the quality of the plants.

Great place to get a new plant to attempt to keep alive! It was incredibly impressive how alive and well all of the plants in the outdoor garden area.Everyone was very helpful and offered assistance to anyone they were near.I'll never go back to a home Depot or Lowes garden center after this.

Decent selection; I am glad this has not turned into a condo development.Almost all items can be found elsewhere for at least 15 percent less.It's funny that they have experts on-hand to guide how to get rid of bamboo, yet they sell (invasive) bamboo!!I shop here if I cannot find what I want anywhere else.I brought a plant in one time (which was still in its' container) that a friend gave me 6 months prior - to ask the experts to identify the plant. They did identify it, THEN they accused me of theft!(of course, this was a 20-something accusing a 60-something).

Best selection in the area - so nice to have access at one place. Their high standards are apparent in their nursery maintenance and organization. They offer a wide range of varieties of oh so many plants and anything you might need that is plant & landscaping-related...make sure to allow yourself plenty of time at this gem of a nursery.
