Greenwood Nursery Review

Greenwood Nursery’s rating came in at 70.5, putting their grade at a C-. Greenwood Nursery is located in McMinnville, TN.

Greenwood Nursery has made some upgrades to their website. It looks completely different then it did from a year ago. It almost looks like they just debuted a new site and went with the basic template or theme, if you will. It was very plain with a cookie cutter look & feel. It is super fast until you start using the search options. A year after the debut and they have been making changes to make the site feel more personalized to their business. The home page looks much better!

As of late August we found 27 evergreen shrubs and 9 evergreen trees. That’s a steep drop from May when they had 71 evergreen shrubs and 10 evergreen trees for sale.  

We also noticed a few other revisions to their site recently. Some make a lot of sense and help you out as a user on the site. Others have us scratching our heads a little bit.

Greenwood Nursery was first registered in 2000, that gives them a 9 rating for years in business.  They seem to mostly carry sizes from a 2.5 inch to 1 gallon containers as well as bareroot. Prices are a bit all over the place.

Even with the latest revisions their site isn’t the easiest to get around on.  They do offer a pretty comprehensive list of planting instructions and helpful gardening resources.

It was hard to find any reviews for Greenwood Nursery. It took some digging but we eventually found 43 Google customer reviews for Greenwood Nursery with a 3.3 out of 5 rating. You can view their Google reviews here.

Greenwood’s plant guarantee was a bit of a beast with its own disclaimer page. That seems to have gone away with recent revisions. Their new ‘Stress Free Guarantee’, in our opinion, doesn’t offer much. It says; “The Greenwood Nursery Stress Free Guarantee will ship plant stock that is true to name, healthy, in planting condition at the best time for the delivery location or we will immediately replace it. Pictures may be required for proper identification.” So, they guarantee they will send you the right plant and it will be alive?

What were the red flags?

• Ship costs are a bit high, especially with the smaller sizes they sell.  20% and higher.
• We didn’t see many product reviews. Just seems odd for a site that’s been active since 2000.
• Greenwood Nursery reviews online are hard to find. Just seems odd that they don’t have a lot more online reviews.
