Thank you SO much for the EXCELLENT customer service I received from Tori and Sarah today! I was missing some receipts that I had misplaced from earlier this month, and not only did they locate them for me- they scanned and EMAILED them to me in a matter of minutes!!! I love the layout and look of the nursery too. It was so comfortable to shop there! (Honestly, I think I could spend a whole day there just wondering around!) BEST CUSTOMER SERVICE EVER!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!

Sunnyside Gardens is AMAZING! They have a large selection of high quality plants and such helpful staff! I came in with an inspiration photo...and Sarah helped me create 3 beautiful planters that make me smile every time I see them! Thank you Sarah and thank you Sunnyside Gardens for being such a big part of the neighborhood!

Recommend Sunnyside Gardens to anyone who is a plant enthusiast!! They have a massive selection of plants and they always seem to have a new ultra rare plant to buy, and I do.
My only two critiques I'd make are that some of the plant prices are steep $$$.. Also didn't sit with me well that they weren't willing to discount a sick plant that was completely engulfed with spider mites. Wish they'd move sick and damaged plants to a Discounted table for the ones needing a little extra TLC.
Nevertheless I'd still recommend this place to anyone without hesitation.

We hired the team from Sunnyside to re-landscape our back yard, after construction. They installed at least 6 weeks after promised date. More than half of the plants were not the ones on the signed contract. Wrong specimens, wrong colors. Appears to be what they had left over at the end of the season. And by the way, this was pre pandemic. Extremely disappointed, because as you might imagine, it was not a low-cost project. This is the first time I have reviewed a business on Yelp. Thats how disappointed I am. I have continued to contact via email with no response. Absolutely do not recommend

I was in and out of here in 30 minutes thanks to Toni's wonderful help! I picked out a pot that caught my eye and she was so helpful in showing me different indoor plants that would thrive in the location I wanted and looked great in the pot I selected. I had a great experience here and will return again.

This is a review of my experience with their landscaping service. In a nutshell: overpriced and underqualified. Two years after a significant purchase of plants, trees, and flowers from Sunnyside, I hired another service who spent most of their time, and my money, fixing what Sunnyside had done poorly, wrong, or not at all. Response to my issues was slow and then, I suppose after the check cleared, non-existent. Two stars means they did a few things right, but for what they charged I was expecting great, not meh, results.

I'm writing this review for the Linden Hills Winter market that is a part of Sunnyside Gardens. My friends and I came here on a Sunday and found Street parking easily. It was a warm day when we came here and bonus, it's a heated covered market, this was a surprise to have such warmth while strolling the vendors. There was live music with a mixture of Christmas music and regular songs. It was crowded, but not impossible to move around. All of the vendors were local and selling various items from jewelry, clothing, soaps, handbags, and many food vendors. There were hot sauces, salsas, olive

I hired the Sunnyside Gardens Maintenance department to help clean up and renew my landscape. SJ, the maintenance department manager or head gardener came to my home on a Saturday morning and we talked through work I wanted done. I did not want to replace my entire landscape and she was the only person that understood what I wanted. SJ created an excellent proposal with all kinds of new planting and removal of the old and tired shrubs. She was able to schedule the work with a very short timeframe. I had hoped they would be able to do the work before winter and she made it happen much sooner than

At the tender of [REDACTED], my interest in the art of home decorating has started to grow. I came out to Sunnyside Gardens for the indoor farmer's market, but there was only one stall selling actual produced so my attention turned to the store itself.
Long fragrant rows of evergreens in varying heights and species, waiting to be precariously tied to car tops, and then festooned with lights and ornaments that require much bickering over their placement. Boughs of holly, rose hips, and other unidentifiable plant matter to be placed into vases or put on the mantle with candles artfully strewn

This is a great garden store in a central location. Despite its modest size, they have a really wide selection of plants that are healthy and well cared for. While they are a bit more pricey than say the big box stores, it feels great to support a local business and to get high quality plants. In the end, you save time shopping here because their staff can direct you right to where the plants can be found.

This is a great store than can make a gardener wanna be of most people. The collection of plants and varieties is excellent and the staff is knowledgeable. However, as Sarah P. mentions in her review, I find the items overpriced. The location is very convenient for me so I do end up going here once in a while and always find more than what I need.
Their pottery is very attractive too but ridiculously expensive. Gerten's is far far away but that's where I end up going to buy in bulk - their selection and prices are very attractive.

I don't know much about gardening, and haven't been to many garden stores in my life. I was going to give Sunnyside 5 stars, but when I saw everyone else's reviews I realized yeah, maybe it's a little overpriced, and some of the people working there should know a little more about gardening than they do. But I digress...
I came here with a friend because I wanted to pick some plants out for my room at college (why wouldn't you want plants in your room?) And I was amazed by the selection! We kept walking and walking and would run into more awesome plants! I couldn&apos

I love the location of this place, but honestly? It's so hit or miss.
First of all, I bought some herbs here to start my herb garden (indoors due to poor soil in the area and no actual land space). I bought some rosemary that looked great...until I realized it was infected with fungal gnats....which infected all of my other houseplants. Goodbye mint. Goodbye basil. It was nice while it lasted.
The pottery is beautiful and they have decent sales each week, but honestly? I'm just sticking with the farmers market for my plants and herbs.
The service is hit or miss. If you are working

Why did it take me so long to come here??!!?? I am itching to do some gardening and decided to buy some annuals to at least get my front step urns done. We had a Chinook book coupon and were running errands in the neighborhood. Image if Bachmans and Wagners had a baby ... you would get Sunnyside. They have the high end quality you expect from Bachmans but at the reasonable prices you get at Wagners. I ended up getting more annuals than originally planned because they were such good quality and affordable.
However as I said to P, I would still buy mulch elsewhere cause it is cheaper.

I live by Sunnyside and would like to be a frequent customer, but I just think it's overpriced. You can do that when your the only garden center in the prime locale of corner of Edina/SLP/SW Minneapolis. BUT, I get lazy sometimes and choose here for convenience. Damn, my laziness always seems to bring me down.
The service is has always been good. Nothing over the top, but I don't have to wander around aimlessly looking for some help. Husband bought an expensive tangerine flower plant thing (see how good my flora knowledge is?) that died shortly thereafter and they gave him his money
