C&S Garden Center - Lawndale, California

Brent Meaglia

This is a great nursery located in central Hawthorne that has a decent selection of just about everything you may need. Whether you grow tomatoes, blueberries, fuchsia, sunflowers, or cannabis this place has everything you need. This is true of many places in the area, but what separates this nursery is the attitude of the employees and the owner himself. You know who owns the place just by the way he acts. You will also know who takes care of the plants because of how enthusiastic and knowledgeable he is. I help a disabled person get to and from El Camino so I often stop there with him so we can walk around and he can enjoy the plants and walk my dog. I waited until I had been there five times before leaving this review just to make sure it wasn’t a one time thing. I had bought several plants, nutrients and soil, and if I need anything that they don’t carry they offer to order it for me. The prices are not low, but they definitely are not high either. For example I think I paid $-10-$12 for a medium bag of Ocean Forest and $12-$13 for a couple feet of organic acid mix. All their plants are source locally and guaranteed to be appropriate for our environment. That’s not the case with Lowe’s or Home Depot.

This is a gardener’s nursery and I recommend it to everyone I know that enjoys gardening. Stop by and support your local nursery!

I went to the C & S Garden Center yesterday just to have a look around. Everything was very well kept. A myriad of nice plants. I walked around looking at plants and prices. The smaller plants looked reasonably priced and there was a great selection. I walked around outside for quite awhile, and then went inside. Wow, just a well laid out great looking place! I have a variety of plants at home and rarely need a nursery. However this place is just down the street and relatively new to the neighborhood. Located at Marine and Freeman in Lawndale. There is plenty of parking inside with an entrance on both streets. I highly recommend a visit. It is so visually pleasing you might save yourself a trip to the museum! ?

Amazing Selection and Helpful Staff

C&S Nursery is hands-down the best plant nursery I’ve visited. They have an incredible variety of both outdoor and indoor plants, and everything is well-organized, making it easy to find exactly what you need. Affordable pricing as well.

The outdoor plant selection is extensive, with everything from flowering shrubs to large trees. I especially appreciated how knowledgeable the staff is — they helped me pick the right plants for my garden based on the climate and sunlight in my area.

The indoor plant section is equally fantastic, with a wide range of houseplants from low-maintenance options to more exotic choices. The staff gave me helpful care tips for each plant I purchased.

They are better than homedepot.

Great selection of plants and dog friendly - they'll even take a polaroid of your pup for their dog wall! Good deals on plants, with dedicated stickers to indicate what's on sale.

Beautiful store, with a great variety of indoor and outdoor plants! I get most of my plants and pots here as well as any other supplies (soil, tools, etc) here and they're thriving. Chris is entirely too nice and helpful as well as the rest of the staff.

Top Consulting Group Inc

Has a good variety of plants that you may not find at home depot/lowes or small sizes which makes it budget friendly. They do carry 5 and 15 gal plants if you're looking for bigger ones. Helpful, friendly, and knowledgeable staffs. Responsive to emails on availability questions. It has enough parking.

What a wonderful nursery! Large selection of outdoor and indoor plants. I was greeted by all of the employees. They did a great job potting my plant.
