I've worked with Urban Gardener several times over the past year for both my home and office, and…read morethey've been consistently great to work with. They've helped with repotting a very large monstera and several smaller plants, always arriving on time and fully prepared with everything needed. Communication is prompt and professional, they really know their stuff, and they always leave the space looking spotless. They also send helpful follow-up care instructions and even looked after my plants while I was away, which I really appreciated. I've recommended their services to a few friends, and everyone's had a great experience. Whether you need help at home or in your workspace, I highly recommend their shop and in-home services.

As soon as I walked in, a friendly voice called out and asked if I needed help. After a lot of searching, he was unable to find the weeding tool and offered to let me borrow his for the day, which I thought was super nice. Someone else helped me find a bag of soil that I would be able to carry home and a small bag of grass seeds. The damage $6. I was pleasantly surprised with the friendliness and helpfulness of the service, as well as their variety of products: plants, soils, tools, seeds... they even had canning equipment. I'll definitely be back when I'm ready to start REALLY gardening, and not just making my yard presentable.

K sorry, that didn't work, but you get the idea :) I wanted to add the hearty, hard-to-kill, air-purifying snake plant to my plant collection. I perused the online offerings at Promise and purchased one, along with a planter, for delivery to my home in midtown Toronto. Nice! They quickly texted me a picture of the plant in its planter, at which point I changed my mind and wanted to upgrade to the Montecito planter for an extra $5. So they sent me a link to pay the extra money. So easy!! Communication on the date of delivery was also great. I'm loving my new snake plant (Laurentii) and Montecito planter, which is a combination I recommend. Would absolutely shop here again.

I came in looking for a house plant for my boyfriend and the owner was so knowledgeable and helpful in answering my questions and getting the perfect plant. Not only that, but while potting the plant for me, he had wrapped it up very considerably knowing that I was walking (aka he had double bagged it and stapled it mostly shut since it was below 0 temp outside and he didn't want it affecting the plant). The selection of plants and prices were great! There's also a cute cafe underneath this plant shop which is great if you want a quick drink. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed my experience and recommend this place to anyone looking to purchase a house plant - thank you Plant Society!

While this is not a front for an undercover organization, Plant Society definitely seems like…read moreToronto's best kept botanical secret. This plant shop is tucked away but houses some of the most beautiful plants, planters, pots, tools and accessories. A friend happened upon their website and I needed to pop in to see it for myself. It was love at first sight! The selection at other plant shops/nurseries varies and that is similar to here. However, that's the exciting part. Plant Society not only carries your monsteras and money trees, but they also have some rare finds and imports, if you just ask. I always find something that intrigues me. Their plants are in good condition, well cared for, free of bugs, and decently priced. They also have some beautiful tools and accessories such as fancy watering cans that can boost the aesthetic in your place going from drab to fab in an instant. If live plants aren't your thing, they have some beautiful dried bouquets. The other aspect of this shop that brings me back is the top notch customer service. You can typically find Michael here and readily available to answer all your plant questions. He has been super helpful and has offered help by suggesting pet-friendly options to just entertaining my curiosity. I always leave happy and more than my arms can carry sometimes. The one good thing about breaking the bank here is that they have a rewards program, which other plant shops don't usually offer. It does curb a bit of the guilt because points will earn you certain dollars off your next purchase. If you're not signed up for their newsletter, you absolutely should because they have frequent sales. If you love plants or even just want to take a peek, go ahead and indulge your inner plant mom (or dad)! You won't regret it - I promise!
