I love this place for their friendly and knowledgeable staff and reasonable prices compared to other stores in the area. The selection is a bit limited but what they do have is all high quality. Also it’s nice to be able to shop semi-local. I’m not clear on the details but Montana Ace is somehow distinct but affiliated with Ace in general, and the Montana Ace stores (almost all in Missoula) are around 30% employee owned. At least that’s what I heard, I could be wrong about that.I can’t stand that this listing still uses their old name, even though they’ve been Montana Ace | The Garden Place for years now. I took pictures of every single sign showing the correct name but Google refuses my attempt to edit the name. I think probably because they never bothered to update their website, which isn’t even accessible anymore. 🤷🏻♂️
Always helpful and friendly and found the perennials I wanted. They have a good inventory of garden tools as well. I like how easy it is to get a heavy sack of mulch or bark. They put it in my trunk for me. Easy to pay for. They were short on help so had to go inside, but still got checked out in a timely manner.
Went there for a bag of potting soil. Came away with a moss trellis for my ivy, a tiny fern, a hanger for my spider plant, and a free bag of soil in addition to the one I bought because there was a promotion just for me after I complained about nobody helping an old lady load it into my car. Really nice kids running the place on a Sunday afternoon. For plant lovers, Fancy Plants is stimulation overload.
Nice selection of indoor and outdoor plants! Really nice and friendly staff
Wow! A great selection even in the fall season! Aarin was extremely knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. She took the time to educate us about our soon-to-be-planted trees. Deer resistance, planting locations, mulching, etc. Selection of spruce trees even better than other places in town and better prices too. Wonderful experience. Highly recommended.
This place is dangerous. Many, many beautiful plants, shrubs and trees.
Joe and his staff are very helpful and curious. Worth the drive from Victor.
I was just in and had a lovely experience! The staff was knowledgeable and led me around to show me all the plants that were safe for my cats and dog at home. I left with two beautiful plants and some bonus ladybugs. They also have a military discount which is much appreciated. I will recommend to anyone in need of well cared for plants. 🐞
Very helpful, friendly and fair.
I almost don’t want to let this secret out, but what a gem if you are looking for incredibly well priced houseplants. And the staff is amazing. Can’t recommend enough!
Super staff, helpful and knowledgeable, plants and trees galore!!
Great selection of healthy plants, and with reasonable prices!
Joe treats his employees like trash, I regret working here.
Always a good experience. Caters to a wide variety of gardening enthusiasts. Prices are good, lots of healthy looking plants. I go there several times every summer.
Joe at Fancy Plants is an absolute pleasure to work with. He is very knowledgeable and cares tremendously about providing excellent customer service. Fancy Plants provides a great selection and fair prices. They are a wonderful resource for Missoula!
Excellent selection and beautifully maintained flowers, plants, shrubs, trees and more. However, the best thing about Fancy Plants is the staff. They are always super helpful and a wealth of knowledge when it comes to plants. We really appreaciate you folks :)
Nice place, great selection and prices. Found some small trees that I hadnt been able to find at other local nurseries. Was pleasantly surprised to see a nice big selection of bonsai pots.
Websites all say open until 6pm. Most people work and in this town good luck getting there before 5. The only way to know they close at 5 is if your already there. The lady turned us away 5min to 5 as we had already drove across town to get there only to realize it was closed. Its my daughters 1st birthday and my husband passed away 3weeks ago and we wanted a special plant for him.
Good variety of annuals, perennials, shrubs, and trees. Staff is helpful and nice. Only issue Ive had was when they didnt have what I needed, offered to look into it and were going to call me. Never received a call.
Brand new store! They still have their great selection of plants, pots and soils, plus a full selection of lawn and garden goodies inside too.
Always great customer service!
Always friendly and helpful. Nice variety of plants. Trees, shrubs, flowers, herbs, vegetables, etc.
Great selection. Super helpful personnel.
Good. Kinda spread out. Out of the veggie plants you are looking for sometimes
Wow everything 50 percent off, nice selection
Very nice and helpful people!
Out of the way and awesome!
Tons of plants without the lines!
