Campbell’s Greenhouses

What a fantastic experience I had!!! Gorgeous plants and great selection, and WOW on the pricing!!! Staff was wonderful, I will definetely be back for more.

This place is tucked away just north of the super-​bougey residential area that is Dilworth. That said, it’s remarkably unpretentious, and the staff wants to not only sell you plants, but make sure that you get plants you will enjoy, and that will thrive for you.
If you’re a bonsai enthusiast, this a must-​see. Brad knows his stuff, from helping you get started in the bonsai lifestyle, to styling and overwintering trees. They have a lot of materials– wire, pots, and tons of trees ready to be worked, in all stages of development.
If you’re looking for a hard-​to-​find varietal of anything, just ask: they’ve been known to special-​order.

I was very pleased to find this nursery. The lady that answered the phone was extremely friendly and helpful with me. When I arrived they were quick to help me and also gave me some great advice for my plants. They mixed a special soil for me to take home in a zip lock bag, since I needed only enough for one small plant. I really appreciated they took the time to do that, instead of making me buy a whole bag. From the looks of it, they had a huge selection of beautiful plants. Happy I stumbled upon this place! I will be back.

Thank you Brad for coming thru on the personal selection of Tall Bearded irises. Prompt/​helpful service, healthy plants and great staff all around! I highly recommend a visit here.

A feast for the eyes. The greenhouse has the most amazing selection of orchids. Staff was friendly and helpful. Found the elusive purple-​striped angelonia I’d been hunting for weeks. Was kind of surprised it was situated near downtown in an old residential district.

I cannot believe I am lucky enough to live less than a mile from this oasis! Friendliest (and most helpful) of staffs and everything I could want in terms of plants and advice. I particularly love Bonsai trees and terrariums, and this is THE place for both. I could live here… or spend a million dollars here… or work here. They know me by name.

Worth the Visit:
I’m new to the Charlotte area and wanted to visit the local nurseries to see what they had to offer. I visited Campbell’s Nursery early am (shortly after opening) this morning. I was greeted by several of their friendly staff members. I saw several plants that I understand are native to Charlotte and some that were not. It was early in the season but I wanted to see what I was working with in the Charlotte area. Other than having several annuals posted on the front apron, there were several types of shrubbery posted on the exterior and interior of the building. I was impressed at the selection so early in the season. Kim was very helpful, as were others during my browsing experience. The prices were fairly average but the quality was definitely there. They seem to care and take pride in their work; which is always a good sign. I will definitely return in a few weeks to see what spring has brought to the nursery and will update in a future post.

Campbell’s Greenhouse is the best there is. I went there to find a nepenthes pitcher plant, I found one and it was at a great price. It was only $ 19 and it was huge, they have another nepenthes and some Venus flytraps, they also have orchids, air plants, cactis, succulents, and pots. The service was friendly and the lady at the front desk encouraged me to keep growing plants as a hobby. I highly recommend this place if you want some real plants. ¹⁰⁄₅ stars!!!
Below is the Nepenthes pitcher plant I bought.

Campbell’s is one of my favorite places in Charlotte! I first came here over the summer when I was preparing for a party I was hosting. A friend had told me the nursery had gorgeous orchids, and, boy, were they right! Campbell’s made me a few special arrangements that still look fabulous three months later.
It’s also a lovely place to browse, if you’re a flower lover, like me :)

We just had an awsome experience today. The staff is great! I came for a Bosnia tree but the ome I was looking for had sold by the time I got there. The lady at the front directed me to Brad. He is awsome he showed us around and got me set up with a Bosnia that was the style I was looking for. He was cery helpful anf very knowledgeable. Would definitely recommend to anyone and will be back.

Employee here is abrasive even cursing at me. Not your friendly local owned business.

Relatively new to bonzai (I’ve had mine for about a year), I went to Campbell’s with questions on repotting and overall care. I can’t say enough for the staff here — so friendly; however, kudos go out to Brad who taught me more in 15 minutes than I could have learned from reading a book on bonzai care or searching thru youtube videos on the topic. Thanks, Brad!

Love Campbell’s for their variety, quality, and service! Jesse and his staff are the absolute best. It is THE place to go in Charlotte for quality indoor and outdoor plants.

Next time i need a beautiful plant to admire until i kill it, this is totally the place i’m coming too!
We were out exploring the neighborhood this weekend and my man took me here, as he knows that i have a love for beautiful plants…(i just wish i wasn’t an accidental serial killer of beautiful green things… me, green thumb?!? HA! more like yellow and limp or brown and crunchy!)
Anyway, my issues aside, this nursery is great. They have a great selection of indoor and outdoor plants, seasonal, and whatever else you might want. they even have cute little bonsi trees and orchids. (which historically speaking bonsi trees are passed down from generation to generation in some cultures… my unborn children would probably wonder why i was giving them a stick in some dirt when i die… i suppose the bonsi trees will need to stay where it’s safe)
Staff is very knowledgeable, and friendly, and prices are very reasonable for the quality product you are getting. I may not be able to keep things alive, but i know good quality plants when i see them (quality means they don’t die as fast in my presence, :D) If you need beautiful plants, then shop local and shop here!

Nice Nursery, Fantastic Bonsai! For Charlotte these are the Bonsai and Orchid Specialists! You can find Bonsai Works of Living Art!
Bonsai: Tools, Wire, Potting Mixture, Containers and Beautiful Trees in Dishes Ready to go! Helpful staff too!

Friendly staff with a lot of knowledge are the best parts about shopping here. And they also have a huge selections or orchids. We bought a nice climbing plant for the patio, and admired the orchids, but since we barely keep our day lily alive, we decided against them.
They also had some really cool Bonzai trees too which we might come back for

Yay for local, but nay for awkward feelings. My husband and I loved shopping for plants here until the Groupon came out (sometime last year). We got a couple, but when we used them the owner made off-​putting remarks, which made us really uncomfortable for using the Groupons he chose to make available to the public. Since then we haven’t returned and recently I decided to update my initial review.
I would lower the rating, however, the staff is really friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful.

What a GREAT place to shop, learn, and browse. I have bought several plants from Campbell’s and all my plants thrive due to their quality and great care instructions. I also love the fact that they discouraged me from a buying a pot I wanted last December because I wanted to transplant a new indoor tree into it… they said that the tree was hibernating and to get the pot in the spring so as not to shock it. Well, guess what, I am buying that pot from them this spring… they now have a LOYAL customer.

I put it out on Twitter that I was in search of succulents & a friend pointed me towards Campbell’s. Everyone who worked there was extremely friendly & even went into the back to get fresher moss than what they had out because I had mentioned I was using it for a photoshoot & he wanted to give me the nicest looking moss he had.
I will definitely come back when the weather gets warm enough to plant.

I’m not much of a gardener, but I thought my house needed some fresh air and campbell’s is close by. I stopped in to look around and left with a great cactus plant. While checking out they gave me some tips on care of the plant. I felt a lot more comfortable buying my plants and getting advice from specialists versus finding something at my nearby mass merchandisers. Extra plus that it is local! There was a lot more plant selection to choose from and I will definitely look to go back for my future plant needs.

Recently, I got into buying indoor plants. So I went to several nurseries and Campbell’s was by far the friendliest, had the best looking plants and the best selection (much larger size options compared to others). It’s too bad that Campbell’s doesn’t have a more prominent sign or logo to let others get a better idea about them from the street but they probably have enough business through word of mouth.
Side note = For a great selection of pots for indoor plants try Pikes in Ballantyne.
