One fan of the company publicly wrote, “We love visiting Crowley’s Nursery! This is a hidden gem in Sarasota County – truly a tropical paradise. Walking around makes you feel like you’re in a botanical garden. Owned by wonderful people with an amazing collection of plants. There are so many varieties of flowers, bamboo, trees and vines. We try to visit at least 2-3 times a year and have so much fun exploring the greenhouses and finding the more rare, colorful and exotic plants. You just never know what kinds of plants you will find here! Much better than the big chain stores or commercial nurseries. This nursery is small, locally owned and family-run. They are very knowledgeable, friendly and care a great deal about educating and helping their customers.”
