C&J Gardening Center - Rancho Cucamonga, California

K 2

Just purchased three gorgeous fruit trees from C&J (a cotton-candy aprium, Carrie mango and Reed avacado) . This was my first time visiting and was blown away by the selection. You can virtually find any fruit tree/bush you are looking for and many hard to find varieties of each. Their prices are extremely reasonable especially considering most if not all of the trees are already bearing fruit. If you are in need of a fruit tree or any other type of plant, you have got to visit C&J! The owner and his assistant were so kind and helpful.

Update, wanted to add a photo of the cotton candy aprium! It's growing beautifully!

The online store with super low free delivery min. is SO convenient. I live a couple hours away so there was no way I was going to drive to the nursery. Their prices are also very reasonable and they have such a wide selection. Customer service was very communicative about the order status and delivery, which occurred within a week. Some of the plants got jostled around in the van, to be expected, so the only thing I would caution against is transporting the more fragile plants like roses.

We were looking for fruit trees and found C&J online, but we wanted to see the plants in person so we visited their Rancho Cucamonga location. They had a very large selection of fruit trees on site. We ended up starting small and picked up a strawberry and a blueberry one. The blueberry one had tons of small berries starting to grow so we hope we can enjoy the fruits soon! May have to go back for a mulberry tree.

These people are dishonest and tried a bait and switch on the product I ordered. I drove an hour to pick up my silver carpet aster and when I arrived they offered another plant which they labeled "silver carpet aster". When I point out the difference, they would not acknowledge anything. Finally, they called the office who refunded my money. They should have offered to deliver the correct product at their expense. You decide if these are the same. The photo with flower was what I wanted. The correct leaves are smaller than a dime and silver. Avoid these people.

I'm sorry to have to leave such a poor review. I ordered several plants, including a Mr. Lincoln rose bush. I planted it, and lo and behold -- the scentless blooms and bright red petals proved that I had not received what I had ordered. I contacted C&J, who told me that my return window had closed, and that their foreman had "confirmed" I had been sent a Mr. Lincoln. ( I will note that there was no label from a respected rose grower such as Jackson&Perkins or Monrovia. just a handwritten tag). They agreed to "make an exception", but only if I personally returned it in its original condition/container -- which I could not do, as I had planted the rose a month ago.
This unfortunate experience is all about customer service. I've received mislabeled plants before, and never had someone deny the mistake. And, on top of it, I'm expected to drive for almost an hour and put it back in its original container
You may have better luck if you can shop in person. But I learned my lesson. Stick to a local nursery, deal with people you can trust and who will respect an experienced gardener who can tell when the plant is not what the label states.

This place has an amazing collection of rare tree species. I’ve been looking for a “Dracena Draco” for a year now, and they had it. I ordered 2 of them, and I couldn’t be happier. They helped me fit the trees into my car (I forgot to tip; I wished I did. Also, fitting these into my car showed they had a lot of experience). My tree looks amazing, and it looks like they have grown it for years. Ultimately, C&J gardens has a great selection of horticultural specimens, and they have amazing customer service.

We were looking for some trees for a new landscaping project and found C&J Gardening Center online. I went in looking for some trees or flowers, but soon found their whole fruit tree sections!! They have trees for fruits I have only ever seen in markets. I never knew we could buy trees for all these Asian fruits! Their staff was very helpful over the phone and through emails. Ordered and delivered. Will definitely order again. Very happy.
