Every one of their people there on Sunday were useless. The lady was out right rude, as if we were interupting her. "What do you need". We brought in three plant clippings. Two of were weeds that they couldn't identify and couldnt really suggest how to rid of them. The other a bush that we were looking for more of or similar. They also had no idea either and just pointed toward an area on the property. Useless. . .

Troy's Tropics went out of their way to help me purchase what was needed for my back courtyard! I have times when I can't leave my villa due to some symptoms related to the military. I sent a message to Troy asking him if he could help me buy two 20" blue ceramic planters, two trees, dirt, and deliver it all to my villa. He literally went around taking a bunch of photos of all the planters he had that matched my description as well as different palm trees for me to choose from!!! I made my purchase last night from my couch and my palms and their beautiful planters were delivered, planted, and put in my courtyard by an incredibly hard worker named Kyle! I am not fond of people coming to my home to do work (anxiety attacks), but Kyle made it incredibly easy and I didn't have to even go outside to meet him! As a disabled veteran, the service they provided means more than they can ever know. I HIGHLY recommend this company that will so kindly go out of their way to take care of a customer!!! (In the attached photos, those are paint sample stickers for the painting I am having done in the Fall...I know it looks weird...)

Today we had our backyard completely landscaped with the help of Daniel, Mike, Mike and Jason. They did an outstanding job. From start to finish we were exceptionally pleased. They were professional, knowledgeable and helpful. They were on time and worked the entire day. They made recommendations and comments that were very helpful. They worked as a team with everyone carrying their load. I highly recommend Troy Tropics for any of your landscaping needs.

Do you carry Heliconia?

Jo Mendez | Aug 30, 2021
Andrei Getty | Aug 30, 2021

I don't work at Troy's but they have a huge selection so I'm betting they do have heliconia. Be aware heliconia is very aggressive it will take over your entire garden! Bet on it.

i bought a desert rose about 2 weeks ago and it is in sunlight and now all the flowers fell off and there are no buds. should i bring it in for a consult or can u just tell me the problem. i havent ever gotten by credit card paying for it.

Lillian Goldberg | Aug 30, 2021
lyn har | Aug 30, 2021

My desert rose was doing great. Then one day, I noticed it was bare. When I went up close, it was covered with some kind of caterpillar which had almost eaten every sign of life on the poor plant. That was several months ago, and I'm still trying to nurse it back to health. Maybe that's what happened to your plant.

Why are you so over priced i went to your store for the first time today to get some plants and i paid way more than i should have?

Lance Walker | Aug 31, 2018
TROY'S TROPICS INC | Aug 31, 2018

It appears you have asked this question twice but phrased differently. Last time we checked we are competitively priced with other nurseries in the area so could you give a specific example? We have always believed in bringing in quality plant material as opposed to poorly grown cheap material. We prefer to have our plants flourish in our customers gardens than to immediately decline due to poor, mass growing conditions just to save a dollar. When plants come into our nursery from our growers we immediately inspect them for any flaws or insect, disease signs and reject what is not in prime condition. Upon receiving plants we use a safe and effective pre-emergent to eliminate the possibility of weeds sprouting up in the containers, we dont believe in sending home a customer with unwanted weeds to go along with their healthy, vibrant plants. Hope that helps and please give an example of what you found so we can help you further! Just remember we are not a wholesale grow
