    Plant Store Company - My purchase

    Plant Store Company

    (1 review)

    I drive by this business during my commute to and from work, and have wanted to write a review for…read moreseveral months now. But, an unusually cool spring has left this business appearing as quiet as the proverbial Maytag repair shop. Despite the uncooperative weather that squelched this year's spring fever, I saw the owner faithfully tending to his plants (I've seen him out there as early as 7:30 a.m.) over the past few months. Now that it's taken until the latter part of May and the beginning of June for spring to have finally taken root, this store is now in its full glory, and the time seemed ripe for a visit. This business is located on a busy commercial road, next to a small convenience store (both businesses share the same parking lot). Speaking of parking, there isn't much, but then again, I've never seen a lot of activity on weekdays, during working hours (I can't vouch for evenings or weekends). I'm not so sure that the Yelp category of nursery/garden center most accurately describes this business, since they don't appear to actually grow the plants on premises, at least from what I could observe. I wouldn't categorize them as a florist either. Instead, I would describe them as a plant retailer. I don't know how or where this business obtains the plants it sells, but I will say they appeared very vibrant and healthy - in better condition than the typical big box stores, and as good or even better than many large nurseries. They sell mostly flowers, but a few vegetable plants as well, such as tomatoes, cucumbers and peppers. Most of their flowers are in hanging pots, but some are in temporary containers, with the intention they will be replanted indoors or outdoors. For the small size of the store, they have a decent variety of flowers. Some stands displaying the plants are outdoors, and some stands are indoors. The man who I presume was the owner was friendly, without being pushy. Referring to several empty display stands indoors, he said he was very busy last weekend and sold many plants, but will be restocking soon. My wife is a bigger plant shopper than me, so I don't have as good a handle on prices, but the prices here seemed like good deals to me. Several potted plants could be bought for $4.99. Some were around $10. Others, like some cucumber plants around three feet tall, were $15. Many of the hanging plants were about $20, such as the particularly beautiful fuschia (which I saw selling for about $5 more at a nursery). The store is nothing fancy, mostly table after table of plants. The owner's 'office' at the front of the store consisted of a recliner and portable television about the size of an old-school transistor radio. I ended up buying a cherry tomato plant, about two feet tall, for a mere $2 - nowadays, $2 won't get you a decent cup of coffee! I definitely plan on returning, since the owner seems friendly, and the plants appear very healthy and reasonably priced.

    It's like several stores under one roof ... in addition to gifts and novelties, they sell used…read morefurniture; new clothing and toys; 'bric-a-brac'; smoking and vaping stuff; used DVDs; and probably lots of other stuff that I missed during my brief walk-through. For instance, if I didn't happen to look up, I would not have seen several golf clubs and golf bags on a long, high shelf along the right wall. They also have impressive displays of some scary-looking knives (as well as non-scary knives) behind glass cases. Furniture included hutches, dressers, tables and chairs, and seemed reasonably priced. DVDs are on shelves in a back room. An older gentleman (who I presume was the co-owner) did greet me as I walked past him. Overall, the store appeared well-organized (unlike some independently-owned thrift stores, where you have to dodge piles of random merchandise). Although I didn't see anything I needed and left the store without making a purchase (I'm rarely an impulse buyer), I gave them four stars because it's an interesting small business that adds more life to Artic (a/k/a downtown West Warwick).

    Visited the store today in their new location in Artic. They offer some cool antiques, such as…read moretrinkets and dishware, along with furniture and other housewares. They also offer jewelry, knives, pipes, tshirts, and the back section of the store has a huge selection of DVDs. It's one of those places you have to check often to see what new items they may have in. I purchased a pair of earrings and a necklace for $1 a piece, which I am thrilled about. The people who work there are very friendly and helpful. My only wish was that they carried more handbags and wallets. They only had a couple in the window for display, and my favorite thing to thrift shop for is handbags. Overall, very cool place to add to Artic. I hope the store does well in this new location.

    I have been shopping at this store before HGTV made home renovations cool (10+ years ago)! This…read morestore has really come a long way over the years. It is not just scratch and dent stuff like some may expect. Items I purchase here are usually cabinets, bathroom vanities, basement windows (though they sell all kinds), exterior and interior doors, etc. There are some other items I only go here for but I'm not giving away all of my renovation secrets. ;-) They have a great selection of laminate floors as well as tile and tile backsplashes. Since the store has gotten busier over the years, they have added some additional employees which definitely helps the customer. New this year is their kitchen design center which assists home owners and contractors on designing or remodeling your kitchen. Cabinets sold here are usually not put together so be prepared for this or you can opt to have the store put them together for you at an additional cost. Give this place a try instead of heading to the orange or blue renovation stores. You may be surprised with what you can find!

    Cool stuff cheap…read more Do you need a toilet? How about a door, sink, hammer, piece of lumber or sack of cement. You'll probably find it here at a good price. Inventory is always changing but you'll find something you can use. It's dirty, messy and smells like toxic waste but if you like to do things yourself then give this place a try. A sign in the store says "The store isn't pretty but the prices are beautiful". That about sums it up.
