Fred Meyer Garden Center

"I love when it warms up and all the pretty blooms come out for sale."

"This is one of the larger Fred Meyers in the area, that I am aware of. They have a section upstairs devoted to clothing and footwear, as well as an electronics department with an array of TV's, laptops and headphones. The reason I am giving them a 3 star review is their service, product availability, and organization... The staff has been less than helpful much of the time, they are frequently out of a variety of products (I get that things are popular but the rate this store is out of things is excessive,) and the store is constantly being rearranged. I know my last annoyance is trivia to some, but others might find it helpful to know that it isn't logically organized or seemingly in a state of upheaval. I'm autistic, I panic when things aren't where I remember them being and it causes me to spend way more time looking for the thing I needed (which is why they do that... If that sounds crazy, think about it this way - it's the same goal behind the way casinos are built; get you to spend more money by causing you spend time walking around.)"

"Went to buy strawberry plant starts, 4 for $3.00, just to find no strawberry plants -aside from Bonnie Bell strawberries @ $3.99 each. Asked 3 store employees about them - working in the garden center. Had the one trying to convience me to buy the Bonnie Bell... Asked for a raincheck, after the wasred 45 minutes above, can only get those from customer service now. Waited in line for an hour for my rain check. Now i need to call frequently to find when those starts might be in. Yes, I could have tried to get them on Saturday, BUT I don't like crowds that usually happens on fushia Saturday & the last two times I got "bumped" hard enough to pop my back out for several days. Yes, I would love to have my plants potted for me, but back pain is not worth it."

"It's not very big, but plants seen healthy and prices seem reasonable for some items. When I visited in summer the selection included lots of flowering annuals, some basic herb options, and a number of perennials for sale too (see picture)."
