The staff is extremely friendly and helpful!! Prices were reasonable, seems like a great hidden secret. I can't wait to go back!!!

Summary - Sharing our over the top positive Wasco Nursery customer experience. Our end to end experience was 5 out of 5 and we are “over the moon” with the result:

Across a handful visits over a few months with 4 Wasco tree specialists listening to our needs and specific location factors, the objectives accounting for pollinator and hummingbird needs, initial ideas for trees, leaf colors, soil and slope conditions, black walnut tree interaction, and then to their refinement on our initial ideas. Outcome: Excellent purchasing experience.

We requested their delivery and planting services as well. They then scheduled the optimal Fall planting event.

Homeowner activities: up front activities 1) define your needs and expectations 2) map of the area you are planting 3) sun/shade, slope, soil type and wetness<>dryness. Post purchase 4) we marked with supplied flags the locations for plantings, 5) and 1 week prior to planting, we were asked to water the bone dry soil. 6) We also registered a week before delivery with the Before You Dig website to have utilities marked.

The delivery and planting crew teams delivered nearly 2 dozen trees and had them in the ground and mulched in less than 4 hours. The crew chiefs looked at each tree flag, made any minor adjustments to the location, and the crews dug the monster holes. They were incredibly skilled and coordinated at moving the 1,000 pound plus tree root balls all across the yard and slopes. They carefully positioned and adjusted each tree, fed them with organic starter for the roots and mulched them. All their efforts led to an incredible outcome of transforming a former cleared invasive tree wasteland to immediate positive impact of a mini arboretum. It makes a huge difference to have a team that cares about what they are doing, and the Wasco crews were courteous, professional, and did quality control of each tree planting.

Already the birds are using the trees.

We were so impressed with the results and the entire customer experience that we have accelerated a second phase of tree purchases from Wasco and now have more trees to be planted in a few weeks.

If you are looking for large trees, a great experience, and for fulfilling your dream of a personal arboretum and botanical garden, stop by the great people at Wasco. They also have a selection of plants and supplies for your garden. Make a trip of it to also grab lunch in St Charles or Geneva too at a local joint.

I've passed this place hundreds of times without stopping but today I decided to stop... This place is perfection. Pricing is very reasonable, plants are healthy and well labeled, and they have a nice selection of pottery. I prefer houseplants so I did not look at exterior plants but I am impressed with the selection and quality for the price for indoor plants. I'll definitely be back!

Home away from home for sure. We have done a lot of planting this year and the entire staff has done an awesome job and helping, guiding, and pushing our comfort zones to explore different ideas and plant. They did a great job planting some trees for us as well. They came in and made suggestions and tips and cleaned up beautifully!

We bought a Redbud at the end of the season during Wasco's clearance sale. Great price, great help & service as always. We shop here at least two dozen times a year for everything from trees, bushes & perennials, to landscaping supplies and tools. Matt and his Nursery are great to work with, won't sell you something that won't thrive in our area. Their field stock is top notch, just a little pricey, therefore the sales are when we buy.
Installation with a 3 year warranty is offered and is a big help for the trees we've bought. Installation teams are very professional, finish their work quickly and clean up the site nicely. They even prune the specimen so that it looks top-notch and leave you with plant care & watering instructions. Our favorite place to shop for our yard!

Wasco was soo easy to work with. Ordered some trees over phone and set up delivery and planting. They came when they said they would and trees were nicely planted. No mess. Highly recommend! Always friendly!
