    Yep, I've bought a lot of stuff from these guys and it's all worked out well. It's a great place to walk around and check out what weird stuff they've got available

    I bought 80 quid worth of plants earlier in the spring. Everything has grown well as expected

    Bought a load of stuff from them last year; the only things not thriving are the couple of plants my dogs like to wee on. Would definitely buy from them again.

    Never bought from them online, but the centre is excellent and most of the staff helped me anytime I've asked questions when I used to go there.

    The plants come delivered by courier, you might find that they are squashed into boxes but the plants are that strong and healthy it shouldn't affect growth

    Its always been one of my favourite garden centres. Times seem to be tough for them since Windyridge opened. Its ot as use as it once was.

    Don't think the OP means the one in Rochestown in Co Dublin , probably the very excellent http://www.johnstowngardencentre.ie/ in Naas Co Kildare.
    I bought some plants from there before and were packaged well, arrived quickly and were very healthy. Would have no hesitation buying from them again.

    To be honest I find the Johnstown garden centre in Rochestown a little expensive and limited in what they offer compared to Windy Ridge which is a wonderful garden centre. I often thought they should open a cafe to enjoy a cuppa and admire the plants and lovely views over the mountains from there.
