McAuliffe's Valley Nursery

I have always been a "big box store" plant shopper, but one visit to McAuliffe's Valley Nursery has completely changed my thinking forever....and brought me BACK there 4 times in the last week...all the way from Mukilteo! :-) From the moment I walked in, every single employee I encountered was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely eager to help. The level of customer service is something you just don't find very often anymore. A special thank you to Maria, whose patience, expertise, and kindness absolutely blew me away. She took the time to answer every question, offered thoughtful recommendations, and made me feel confident about my landscaping decisions rather than overwhelmed. You can tell she truly loves what she does. The entire team made me realize the value of shopping at a local nursery. The knowledge, care, and personal attention are worth every penny. I'll gladly skip the big box stores from now on and make McAuliffe's my first stop for all of my gardening and landscaping needs. Thank you for such an exceptional experience!

Jamie, the owner is a gem! Prices are better than flower world, and the selection is incredibly curated and boutique.

I can’t recommend McAuliffe’s Valley Nursery in Snohomish enough! This family-owned gem has one of the greatest selections I’ve seen at any local nursery—beautiful trees, shrubs, perennials, Japanese maples, conifers, and so much more, all grown right on their fertile Snohomish Valley fields. What truly sets them apart is the best service around. The staff is incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and genuinely helpful. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced gardener, they take the time to offer practical advice tailored to our Pacific Northwest conditions. No pushy sales, just real expertise and care. On top of that, the quality of the products is excellent—healthy, vigorous plants that establish well and thrive in the garden. Prices feel fair, especially considering how much stock is field-grown on-site. If you’re in the Snohomish area and looking for plants, pots, soil amendments, or just some gardening inspiration, make the trip to McAuliffe’s. It’s worth every minute. I’ll definitely be back again and again!

This nursery is conveniently located and has a beautiful curated selection of well-tended plants. It may be slightly more expensive, but you know the plants will thrive immediately after planting. I generally enjoy shopping and find the staff helpful and courteous, but I did shop about 45 min before closing one day and felt rushed to the checkout where I then stood in line waiting - time I could have used making sure of my selections. For the bedding plants - I do super enjoy that they are arranged by color. I haven't ever seen that before and it makes sense for how you might choose one. But BEWARE - annuals and perennials are mixed and it is sometimes difficult to distinguish which is which.

Such a beautiful nursery! Tons of variety. Parking was easy and sufficient. Enjoyed exploring with my mom and her walker, grounds are wheelchair accessible. Staff was knowledgeable and helped me pick plants for fall planting. I'm currently in a rental house so I wanted to keep costs down. We were able to get what I needed to fill a garden bed and stay within my budget. (Last pic is my garden bed at home that I filled for under $40, with the exception of the 2 white flower bunches on each corner end.) Highly recommended.
