Moneta Nursery

I have been a customer for more than 20 years a happy one at that. My husband passed a year ago so I got a strawberry tree full grown expensive tree to plant in front of my house in his memory:(
Tree never grew but stayed green, six weeks ago started dying and I called them a Hispanic guy was nice and told me things I could check for and was kind and nice however the tree is now dead w a split trunk at the bottom which I couldn’t see due to all the flowers around I called again and ask to speak w owner who was very Rude and NOT helpful at all and said there is nothing He can do about it I told him how much I had paid But He knows because those trees r expensive and He got irritated and hang up
So much for my 20 something loyalty to them

A huge selection of plants, and they have outstanding customer service!

Came here looking for agave as they have a great selection of drought tolerant plants. They had a great selection of drought tolerant plants.
Employees are friendly, knowledgeable and extremely helpful. An employee followed us around and placed them in the electric cart as we chose our plants. He also loaded them into our car for us where he even went as far as to put down plastic and line the edges with cardboard as these agave plants had some very large thorns.
Their plants look very healthy and the prices are reasonable for the quality of plants and service. Most of the nursery is unshaded– sun protection is highly recommended. Will definitely be coming back to support this awesome family business.

Very clean and organized nurse. The people are so helpful and price is also reasonable.

Hidden gem alert!
I came here to look for a cherry blossom tree and I found it along with a ton of other trees that are very hard to find elsewhere. A very kind and knowledgeable guy showed me around the 5 acre nursery and gave me many invaluable tips for successful gardening. The nursery seemed to carry every fruit tree imaginable (guava, persimmon, avocado, cherimoya, etc.) along with my favorite pink flowering trees: cherry blossom and flowering plum. If it wasn’t so darn hot today, I would have spent hours just browsing around. Believe me, there is a lot to see. I purchased several trees in 5 quart pots, each around ~$ 45. Great deal for such hard to find trees! The guy even loaded them into my car.
I highly recommend this nursery for gardening needs. The selection of plants and trees is beyond anything that’s offered at any big name home improvement store. Also, the people who work here are so cool to speak with. I saw so much and learned so much today. I was helped by a guy named Gilbert. Make sure to ask for him!

This nursery has a huge selection of everything! We came here to look for succulents and they had a whole section in the front! They all kinds of trees, flowers, and the set up is very well maintained! I think it’s a bit pricey but it’s a small owned business. The people were very friendly and helpful.

Looking for thoughtful gifts, found two giant flower bowls for the price of a dozen roses. On top of that, incredible and eager customer service and they’ll roll your plants right to the car. Nice find.

Super friendly and helpful as long as it is not busy. They have a large selection of stuff but not all of it is labeled so if you need help this is were it gets difficult. Prices are fair.

Came here looking for succulents and cactus but got drawn into the rest of their property. This place is huge and has just about everything. I got stuck looking at all the fruit, vegetable and herb plants. Definitely coming back to purchase some and start a new project.
Anyways, I found what I was looking for and the staff was friendly and asked if I needed any help. Prices are reasonable but are cheaper back where I live (West Covina). I don’t know if the prices are higher bc their lot is so big or because I’m in Los Angeles.

Very disappointed!
We wanted an Eley Garden Hose Reel, wall mounted, and found that Moneta Nursery was the local distributor. We found it in stock for $ 179, which seemed high, but we knew it was high quality, so we paid the price. Once home I checked the Eley website and found the retail price is supposed to be $ 139. That’s a $ 40 difference! I called Moneta Nursery and was told that they were aware that the price was higher, but that was because they added shipping and handling. Really? Are we to believe that they pay the retail price? I’m very disappointed.

my mom and i come here when we need to buy plants for the house/​backyard. everything is reasonably priced and the plants here are in good shape! there is a wide selection of shrubs, flowers, plants, and fruit trees! the only downside of this place is that it gets too hot when the sun is beaming down on you. it’s open weekly and this place is never packed unlike home depot or lowes! plus everything is at a discounted price so it’s not a disappointment!
make sure to bring an umbrella to keep out of the heat!

Very helpful and kind staff.
Great selection of veggies, shrubs, roses and trees.
Low prices.
It’s worth the drive, even if you don’t live nearby. Love these guys!

Fantastic selection of trees and bushes. Uncommonly good service. We were looking for a pomegranate tree and visited three nurseries who claimed to have good specimens. None of them had trees that were mature enough or looked particularly healthy, and then we found Moneta. We were greeted in the parking lot by someone who offered help, then they showed us what we asked for plus some slightly less expensive options way, way in the back. When we checked out, the owner helped us and arranged delivery the same day. This place is a gem!

I was pleasantly surprised when we stumbled upon Moneta Nursery this week and glad to know that I won’t have to deal with Home Depot anymore for my plants. Really well organized nursery with wonderful healthy plants on a pretty large property. I know there are lots of nurseries in the South Bay, but I must say that this one stands out because it has convenient parking, great staff and prices that are comparable to most places nearby.
I really like that everything is labeled and organized by type of plant. I may not know the names of flowers, but I do know what I want to see in my garden and they have the goods.
If you need food, fertilizer, outdoor pest control items or anything to help you have a green thumb they have a nice store that should save you a trip to one of the crowded big box locations.

Moneta Nursery no longer carries Yuzu trees and has not for some time now.

Great selection of plants to chose from. My pink and blue hydrangeas and meyer lemon tree are going strong! I think the prices are fair because they have to make money some where as a family owned business. Come trek over.

I love the atomsphere of this place, its peaceful and serene. My only gripe is the closing time, but then again, the place is open durring the most optimal times to show the main product… Flowers, trees (Fruit or foliage), bushes, shrubs and herbs. I havent found a bigger nursery, or one that is as well equiped as this one either.
The shorter Asian man (very sorry if i am dead wrong about the nationality of this guy) seems to be in charge there, as i see him doing least heavy lifting and more informing than anything else.
Only gripes with the spot is that its too damn far and the hours. But like i said before, there is no need to see flowers after 5pm anyway. Its just sucks if you get off work at 4pm and work in DTLA, you wont be going until the weekend

As a kid growing up without fail there was at least one monthly trip to our local nursery. I didn’t realize how spoiled I was then having three types of avocado’s, lemon, tangerine, apple, quince, plum trees and even sugar cane to eat in our backyard that my father cultivated and roses, gardenias, etc from my mom. Well unfortunately that place after 50 years in business closed awhile back and I’ve been looking ever since for a replacement. Well this is it. It’s HUGE, the staff is both friendly and highly knowledgeable and how rare is this FAMILY OWNED!!! The plants are so healthy here I enjoyed just standing in the middle of the place watching the butterflies and birds galore. So much better than the usual places that carry the same old crap and no one around to help you.

Unilocalin’ Unilocalosiphats!
Thanks to Unilocal for finding this one for me. Not your average nursery, you can find that ‘not often seen’ exotic here and get that instant gratification instead of searching online for a seedling and waiting weeks for the delivery. Absolutely awesome selection well kept, well maintained and overall a great garden shopping experience.
It is a tad pricey but you get what you pay for and the selection is a wonderful change of pace for me and what I am used to.
Easy in, easy out, super nice people and probably a new place for me to go on my lunch hour…
Kudos Unilocalonians!

Whatchu know about Calochortus argillosus? I don’t. But they do.
Skilled, Knowledgeable employees who know a thing about plants, flowers, trees and everything under the rainbow regarding botany. Very organized which helps a newbie find what he needs for his landscaping issues.
Saved my girlfriend and I a trip to Pasadena when we found out they have a specific, regional tree we were looking for. Reasonable prices, attentive staff, a wide variety of everything you need to start up that curb appeal. Come here and get your HGTV on’! Don’t forget to get your mulch…(like I know what I’m talking about…)
