So disappointed, they did not fulfill the promised services at my aunts house, and have stopped even returning her calls. I would hate for somebody else to be taken advantage of by this company. Definitely do not recommend.

Soil service truly is a one-stop (or maybe two-stop) garden shop between the veggies, annuals, perennials, trees, and shrubs the two stores boast between themselves. Not only do they have an unbeatable selection or hard to find plants, but their staff gives expert advice.
