Canoyer Garden Center - Grimes IA

I have used a different garden center in past years, but this year I decided to make the trip to Grimes and I’m glad I did. This is a locally-owned business, and the owner is involved in the day-to-day operation. I looked at the large selection and wanted something slightly different, so Rita helped me on the spot. She went above and beyond to create beautiful pots that were just what I wanted. I was also assisted by another staff named Stacia, who answered questions with a smile. I even had time for a brief chat with the owner, Kyle. All in all, I was able to find what I wanted, have two custom pots created, ask questions, and be on my way within 30 or 40 minutes. I learned some helpful information about the flowers and greens that I had chosen, and now I realize why my lobelia from a different business stopped blooming mid-summer. I will definitely go to Canoyer Garden Center again!

This Place Is Magical!! I live an hour away from this place, and dont make it to the area but once a year, and I never had the time to check them out. WELL I FINALLY HAD, & THIS PLACE IS FREAKING MAGICAL!!! I never thought to pull out my phone and take photos because I was just absorbing the place!! If I can get there again, ill definitely take photos, and see if I can add them to this. Their prices are amazing too. I purchased an Alocasia Silver Dragon & an Alocasia Dark Stem, and I did not get that uneasy feeling when you know you had no business spending x-amount like one would at (coughing-Earl May) lol Also, their plants are healthy to the core. Their roots are very healthy, and no pests. I know things can happen, but I truly feel I dont need to worry about placing my new plants from this greenhouse, into quarantine before integrating them into my collection!!! 👏 👏 👏 👏 If your broke, or just bored, and you like plants, get off your bum and go check them out! PS: The employees, and the manager lady are super kind people! This Is Very Important To Me! My daughter is 18, and she is my special needs kiddoe, who needs a wheelchair/chair stroller when there will be considerable amounts of walking. Her and I could zip around freely. Concrete floors, and ample amounts of space to look at every inch of the greenhouse. That is so important to me. She is my partner in crime, and its so so nice not having to squeeze around things. If your kiddoe is in a wheelchair, or a full sized adult stroller, (those are big) they will get to enjoy its fullness with you. 😊 ANOTHER HUGE PERK Their bathrooms are very clean, and they have more than enough space to change your kiddoe, young or adult. There isnt an adult changing table, (in the mens) BUT you wont shriek or squeal if you had to use the floor. To those who know, know! K, im done! 😁

Spring flowers are in stock. The staff is very helpful and available for suggestions. There are lots of new items in the store. Decorative pot selection is fanominal. Don't forget to get your account set up and get rewards this year. We always enjoy this trip! 💐 🌹 🌸 🏵

Some of the most well cared-for plants I've seen in central Iowa. Good prices. Really cool, unique items in the gift shop. Reminder to self: come back in the spring for herbs.

I don’t have a green thumb, but I know where to go for quality plants at reasonable cost to place in my flower bed or patio planter which is Canoyer Garden Center in Grimes. As I enter I look for help to find allium when I enter the perennial section. The young man was busy but stopped long enough to help me locate allium millenium — loading them on my cart — directing me to the front for potting soil and fertilizer— super helpful. The plants and product were at reasonable price with plenty of front door parking as you load your plants in a customer friendly environment.
