@Bovine421 Lucas has a pretty good selection of fruit trees with some oddballs no one else carries in stock but their prices are astronomical. Their flowering plants are much more decently priced and they have an amazing selection of those so the place isn't not worth going to. In fact if I was traveling to Central Florida to look at nurseries then I would for sure make it a stop just to wander around. I was there this past weekend actually and picked up a couple odds and ends and came to the conclusion they should pay me since I spend half my time helping confused people since the actual staff is overwhelmed or are just there to help old people load heavy trees on carts. They really make their money off of their lucrative landscaping/care contracts and I know they used to have a multi-million dollar deal with the University of Central Florida so I assume they have the super high prices on trees because they don't care if their stuff is ridiculously over priced, its just a bonus for them.
Nicks-(open by appt only) is hit or miss on prices. I think most of his stuff is over(maybe not Lucas over but over priced) but some of his stuff is amazing. I wont buy bananas from anyone else, but come to his fruit tree prices and you are bordering on Top Tropical's prices. He is a knowledgeable person and if he has a nursery that gets opened up for wandering I will probably check it out and will likely impulse buy trees I don't need since he does have some stuff I haven't seen elsewhere. Given benefit of the doubt based purely on the bananas(which he delivered during the height of the shut down) I imagine the other trees he sells are pretty good sized and might actually be worth what he is selling. I would rather give my money to a small nursery that needs the income than a multi-million dollar corporation.
