This place is nothing short of a “Garden of Eden”! With what seems like an infinite selection of both everyday and uniquely uncommon plants, shrubs and trees, I cant imagine why anyone would look any further for their landscaping and gardening needs. The staff is incredibly friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. The plants are gorgeous, healthy and well maintained - every one a showpiece and they stand behind them, too. When an infestation of spider mites took down my gorgeous spiral Alberta Spruce two years ago, they replaced it at no cost with a beautiful new one. They even educated me on how and what to treat it with and the products I needed were right there in their gardening center – one stop shopping!! I have followed their advice and am thrilled that it is flourishing this season with not an insect in sight. I bought my summer annuals there again this year and there was no waiting for them to grown and show off. The selection is amazing and all are well-established plants that provide instant gratification when planted at home. Need gardening advice? The owner is a skilled landscape design professional whose knowledge of plants, trees and garden design is second to none. I highly recommend Hilltop Nursery and Garden Center for all your planting and landscaping needs. They are simply the best!
I got the biggest and most beautiful annual hanging baskets including fuschias here. Not cheap but lasted a very long time! Definitely recommend.
The staff there was excellent and very courteous. They explained exactly what was needed and didnt try to sell me on any products I didnt need. Glenn is phenomenal to work with. I had 8000 sf of land behind my house and all the trees trimmed, cleaned up, and prepped for a new lawn in 3 days. Their men are very nice and professional and always cleaned up when they left at the end of a days work. I will definitely be using them again for my next landscaping project.
I bought a tree from Hilltop, had it delivered, planted, and an existing tree removed. The price of the tree was reasonable and the cost of the labor was very fair. The guys onsite worked incredibly hard and they left my yard in perfect condition. Everything looks great. This is my first time using Hilltop and I was very impressed!
Hilltop Nursery is fantastic! I stopped in because I see them every time I drive to work. They have done a lot of work since the last time Ive been in, the grounds look great and there is a large selection of plants to pick from. I was completely unsure of what I wanted or needed to spruce up my yard and by the time I walked out of there I had everything planned, picked out and even was able to arrange for help planting so I didnt have to spend my days off doing it. The guys on staff were helpful giving me ideas for my partially shaded yard and also had suggestions for deer resistant plants. I cant say enough good things about my experience there. I will definitely be back for my Christmas tree this year and any planting needs in the future!
I do not recommend buying plants from this nursery. We bought seven plants for $264.07. A week later, a $24.00 hanging whirlwind died on us. The others plants were perfectly fine. When asked if we could exchange the plant, the manager informed us that they had a no return policy. Obviously, this plant had a disease as we followed all instructions. Even Home Depot has a one-year guarantee on their live plants. We chose a local establishment because we wanted to support small business owners. Unfortunately, Hilltop lost our business and we were just beginning to populate our front & back yard with trees and plants. What a major loss of money for them. I advise other purchasers to take their business elsewhere.
We used Hilltop for pruning five very tall trees. They came out very quickly and did a thorough job removing the dead wood and cracking branches. Glenn and his crew were courteous and professional. We appreciated that they moved lawn furniture and decor out of harms way before beginning and returning it all to the proper places after they were done. They also cleaned the patio area well where lots of the debris had fallen.Glenn has been very helpful in going over new yard designs for upcoming improvements (i.e. patio, raised flower beds, rock walls, etc.) and is typically easily reachable during a job which we also appreciate.We look forward to using Hilltop again.
After years of living in the Cortland Manor area and struggling with numerous landscape companies, I finally found Glenn Griffin at Hilltop Nursery & Garden. He quickly came onto my property, assessed the situation with honesty and concern and came back to me with a plan that transformed my property from blah to beautiful. In addition, he worked with me on budget so that I could afford something that I loved. His crew is here every week maintaining the property and providing improvements whenever required. They are reliable, trustworthy and true professionals. I would highly recommend them to anybody.
This place is awesome. Great variety to choose from and nice for the kids to walk through to see the animal sculptures throughout. The owner helped us design a nice layout for our walkway. The staff helped to pick out plants that looked great as well as fit our budget. Will definitely be going back here for future planting needs.
Absolutely professional and talented place, when you hire them to build walls and plant gardens. Glen and his team is proficient and fantastic at working with you to plan and create. Shows plenty of pictures to inspire and get clarity on what you are looking for... tons of quality plants and trees too!
I had an amazing makeover for my flowerbeds with Hilltop. From waist high weeds to very pretty curb appeal. Ezekiel did a really good job in figuring out what plants worked for my limited space and completely overhauled its look. Not cheap but the end product makes it all worthwhile. I really appreciated your input, advice and recommendations. Whatsmore, two weeks later, despite the heat and humidity.....all of the shrubs are alive and thriving. THANK YOU EZEKIEL AND HILLTOP.
Hilltop nursery Is the best highly recommended I would not go anywhere else Great staff.
Bought Christmas holly and took it home and made a lovely arrangement. When I came downstairs the next day all of the holly leaves were on the table. Clearly not fresh. When asked the next day they saidits not our fault. Plants like that die inside.Reminder it was in our house for 1 night. Stick with a credible name shop or even one of the Christmas tree pop-up spots. This place isnt worth your money.
They did an excellent job in a short amount of time. Removed overgrown bushes in front of my house, designed, and replaced them with a variety of colorful bushes. Hilltop went beyond the contracted work transplanting some bushes, they could save, elsewhere on my property. My property was left clean without a trace of work being done except for my beautiful gardens.
I have to say this is absolutely one of THE best Nurseries I have ever purchased from or dealt with. The owner stands by his word and has been a pleasure to work with. My property is gorgeous now thanks to them and I’d been with another landscaping company, paid through the nose and got nowhere near the quality nor the service we get from these folks. I say 5 thumbs up for sure!!!
Always pleasure: Terrific family run business that cares. I enjoy spending the money on this level of quality product and service. A few bucks more than Home Depot and worth more still. Highly recommend this reliable addition to the Hudson Valleys small businesses.
I love these guys. Great selection, knowledgeable and helpful staff. I use these guys for all my gardening needs and highly recommend them!
This nursery has everything a homeowner would need, quality is above box store plants, hearty, and vibrant, great selection of colors, annuals, and perennials. The staff is friendly and knowledge, always willing to answer questions. A+
Great place! We are slowly working on fixing up our property. Did a GREAT job with not only planting, but design ideas. Worked within my budget and helped me plan for future work. Staff is super knowledgeable and friendly. Really amazing local place!
The place is nice, and has a lot of plants. The salesperson seem in a rush. She walked away and didnt have any patience with us. She answer questions but looked annoyed. We looked around and left. We ended up at Home Depot.
What was 25 dollars last year is now 40 and not as healthy we passed
They have a great selection and their product lasts. I have bought many plants at other garden places and the plants have died with in weeks.
Wow! They still have Christmas trees and wreaths available!
I can’t rave enough about how fabulous Hilltop Nursery improved and beautified my property. I highly recommend. Service and knowledge can’t be beaten.
My family didnt really find things we were looking for here but other than that, the flowers have a strong beautiful smell and is a great place to drop out kids!
Amazing selection of fall mums and pumpkins— a perfect addition to the front of any home.
Terrible customer service, over priced plants and flowers. Section was just okay. My family had an awful encounter with the owner who was very rude and pushy. Will not be shopping here again nor will I be recommending this business.
High grade of plants perfect mums and fall colors
5 stars wasnt enough. Everyones customer service was impeccable. Quality trees to boot.
Excellent plant selections and fair prices. Good customer service, very helpful staff.
Great place! Great landscapers and just lovely people!
One of the best of the surviving old-time plant nurseries. Great selection?

2021-09-08Glenn, Anthony and their entire team were amazing. The professionalism of the workers were exceptional. The design came out even better than I imagined. Glenn had a vision and his team executed it flawlessly. If you need landscaping I highly recommend you hire Griffen Landscaping.

2022-06-12I purchased 4 bushes/trees from Hilltop Nursery along with many other plants to replace some dead ones I had bought there last year. I took the smallest of the bushes home in my car and had the other 3 delivered with a yard of dirt for a separate project I had started. We agreed on a price to have the 3 dead bushes/trees removed and all 4 of the new ones installed and the dirt spread.When the landscapers arrived, they said they were only supposed to plant 3 of the 4 bushes and only remove two dead ones. I was not happy.The largest pine tree to remove was dead. They had replaced another dead one last year that was planted in the same hole. This year we agreed to move the hole away from an underground rock that probably was the cause of the other 2 trees dying.When I came back outside I was very unhappy to see they did not dig a new the hole but instead planted the tree in the exact same spot where the other 2 trees had died and then used most of my dirt I had ordered for another project to raise the ground level 9 inches around the base of the tree.

2021-04-25Truly the best nursery I have seen in many years. Their selection of plants and trees is amazing and Glenn Griffin, the owner, is extremely knowledgeable about every and I mean every plant and tree known to man. Also his knowledge of selecting trees and plants and then arranging them in a garden is a beautiful thing to watch. He just selected plants and trees for our two front gardens on each side of our front entrance and came up with amazing plants and trees in the center island of our driveway. I strongly recommend Hilltop whether you just go there to buy a few plants or trees or need some serious landscaping, as we needed, Hilltop is the place.Thank you Glenn.

2021-04-27My fiancé and I have visited this place multiple times. We purchased a small 2-3 feet Christmas tree at 125 dollars in a really tall pot to give the illusion it was 5 feet, which at the time I thought was a steal, now looking back why did I pay so much money for a tree that size. I have visited multiple nurseries in my life but after my recent move here, the prices are tremendously overpriced for organic material. We both have very rewarding careers but I would rather take the trip to other nurseries 20-30 minutes away than spend my money at this place. We need to support each other by also being reasonable to the community you serve.

2021-04-21We are MORE than just satisfied with the landscaping DESIGN and QUALITY of the plants. The owner can transform challenging property into a beautiful garden with ease. He asks the right questions to achieve your vision. This combined with his recommendations, experience and expertise made our project a POSITIVE one that exceeded our expectations! Highly recommended!

2020-12-10Ive been taking our baby here as a newborn and even now as a toddler, its one of our top 5 favorite places to visit. So many varieties of healthy plants, trees, and shrubs! Theyre setup is so friendly and inviting. Their service is always the most helpful and sweet as can be. Were lucky to have this nursery in our neighborhood! Totally recommend!

2020-12-30My family is pleased with our decision to trust Hilltop Nursery for our backyard landscaping and tree removal project. Glenn identified practical solutions for our needs and provided a fair and honest estimate. His staff was responsive to our requests and questions, and the job was completed on time. Thank you, Hilltop Nursery, for the excellent work you and your team did.

2021-07-07The selection of plants is impressive, they are good quality and well cared for. But the prices are very high and the customer service horrible- rude, dismissive, snooty, and unhelpful- especially if you are not caucasian. Plus there are no guarantees on any plants! If they die, even days later, it was your fault, according to staff. Not returning, not recommending.

2020-07-06Hilltop did an excellent job with our front garden. They removed some old trees and shrubs and planted a lovely arrangement of shrubs, trees, and perennials. This was our second project with them, and they always go above and beyond. We decided to have this done a bit late in the season, so one of the plants we wanted wasn’t available anywhere. Rather than talking us into something else, they planted a similar one and offered to swap it out when the others are available. I always appreciate their commitment to making their customers happy.
