Sacred green. Being among slow growing things. This is a special place and a local favorite. Get ideas for your garden and buy that special plant. I miss the cafe, but am thrilled that the piano is here. I'm sure both the young and mature plants also enjoy the music. Long Live Flora Grubb! read more

The cool thing about Flora Grubb besides the good selection is the unhelpful clerks and high prices.

Amazing nursery, selection, layout. Can't say much about the service as I didn't solicit help while there...however no one approached me offering help. My 3-star rating is about the prices...oh my. Not sure how they stay in business. Seems like they almost take advantage of customers who don't know better. Example: $29.99 for a 6" Zee Zee plant. What?? These are the easiest plants to propagate and grow. This is criminal. Ended up buying nothing. I'll go to an honest nursery that doesn't fleece their customers. read more

A great place to stop by and enjoy plants and some coffee. Has a good selection of different unique items and though pots are on the more expensive side, still reasonable. Employees weee helpful and answered all of our questions and gave great recommendations. There were little wagons near the front to help wheel out your haul. Fun stop if you're in the area or looking to add some green into your home! read more

Just to prove how plant illiterate I am. I have a confession to make - I've never heard of this place before, and I've lived in the Bay Area most of my life. And as we all know, that's a really long time. However, let me bask in my ignorance and delight in finding an unexpected bucolic space. I wasn't even looking for it as I just had lunch for the first time at All Good Pizza (review: https://bit.ly/36gtohl) and strolled down a very industrial-looking block. The nursery is pretty well enclosed from the street, so it was a complete surprise to see 8,000 square feet that almost felt like a park. Naturally they specialize in plants that thrive in the Bay Area, which means there are quite a few palm trees, cacti, and succulents laid out in organized groupings. Some of the plants look downright sculptural like contemporary art pieces. Even the rainbow of patio chairs are decoratively presented on a wall (photo: https://bit.ly/3rNbdbs). A huge galvanized steel structure houses the indoor plants and garden furnishings. I heard there used to be a Ritual Coffee Roasters kiosk, but it has since closed unfortunately. No matter as I'll be back when I get motivated enough to develop a true green thumb. Hell won't be frozen yet. RELATED - Exploring Bayview/Hunters Point?

Great selection of outdoor and indoor plants. My favorite place to buy all things plants!

This is the coolest plant store I've ever been to. I came on a Saturday morning and there was a cute coffee cart selling coffee. They have a huge selection of plants and I felt the prices were reasonable. My favorite part of this plant shop was the outdoor piano. I played the only song I know how to play on the piano and it was really fun. I ended up getting a succulent for my apartment! read more

It's out of my way which is great for the wallet because they have GORGEOUS selections and very reasonable prices (for the most part, some of the more popular items are naturally pricier). I have no idea why someone would say they're overpriced when they have 1-2 gallon size stag for $25. $25!! The service is great, save the one cashier that checked me out that did the bare minimum (but even then I wouldn't say the service sucks), and when he was typing away on his cell in front of me, the other girl nicely asked if I needed help boxing up or anything. So really, 99% of the folks here are nice. The 1% is just a given. No one and nothing is perfect. Anyone giving this place less than 5 is tripping. read more

Such a great place to grab a coffee, sit in the garden and pet all the cute dogs that come by. Although they didn't have the succulent I was looking for, the person that helped me was very friendly and knew what they had available. Some of their items were a little pricey but overall a great place to check out. read more

I'm OBSESSED with Flora Grubb. My favorite plants (and pots) in my house are from here. We love just browsing around at all the plants and looking at their selection. I want to buy everything! It is on the pricier side, but the plants are just better here. Everyone who works here is so incredibly helpful and nice. By nature, I am a plant killer with my brown thumb. Pre-pandemic, I came here in search for an indoor plant. They recommended I get a lipstick plant. Lo and behold, it has survived, bloomed, and is a fan favorite when people come over to visit. The location is in the middle of nowhere, but its actually nice that parking is available and free. read more

I don't know how anyone could give Flora Grubb less than 5 stars! I live in Healdsburg and find the gorgeous and unique selection of indoor and outdoor plants so worth the drive. Drought tolerant plants are what we need and the service is amazing. Each time I am there I easily find knowledgeable personnel who are eager to help. Big on lush greenery, stunning landscape arrangements, and so many fun accessories and pots, it is hard to leave. read more

My favorite nursery in the bay, Take my money any day. Words can't describe how much I love this place. Grab a cup of coffee (which they sell) and just take a stroll. Large collection of indoor, outdoor, direct light, indirect light plants. The space is laid out well and as far as nursery's go, fairly priced (this ain't Home Depot). The staff is always available and happy to help, educate,make suggestions. Parking is easy too. read more

If you're looking for a new plant baby, you want to check this place out. You'll find many variety of indoor and outdoor plants. Not only you'll have countless options but their plants are noticeably healthy. Other than plants you will find pots and fertilizer. Not sure if I saw soil though?! I did went on a Thursday morning and the staff working were helpful and friendly. Lucked out because they were putting out new plants. I went there for a monstera and after checking out a few I found the one. Unfortunately the spot where I parked, I ended up being blocked by a big rig. Spent a little more time there than I expected so I bought a coffee to sip on while strolling around. Not sure if they sell coffee every morning but I'm happy they did. read more

Flora Grubb Gardens - This plant was way bigger. I did propagate a few stems for my family :)) - Nurseries & Gardening Near Me - San Francisco, California

Thank you!! Flora Grubb saved Christmas. I love purchasing all the plants for my yard at Flora Grubb and was looking forward to purchasing a Christmas tree in person. Of course we've been sick with every kid cold to sweep through the city this month. So I called Flora Grubb at the last minute to arrange for an over the phone Christmas tree purchase. I was helped by the kindest team of folks. They not only picked out a lovely tree and a few ornaments for our 2024, but also directed the lugg pickup to the correct items. I'm so happy I thought to call Flora Grubb and am looking forward to spring plants in the coming year. read more

Excellent service and lots of plant selection. However, I was in the market for outdoor furniture and they had just what I needed. Highly recommend this place! read more

So, COVID happened. The running joke is, couples are cooped up indoors, bored, and BOOM. A new addition is added to the family. Has this happened to anyone? *Raises Hand*. However, as a newly single parent, my new baby sits in a plant pot not a highchair. I figure now was a good time to pick up a new hobby and what better way then tending to a plant. Plants are beautiful, therapeutic, calming but also require some TLC. This was my first baby so I came to Flora for their endless options and variety. Service was great read more

Obsessed!!!!!!!! Came during shelter in place and it was amazing. There was a staff at the door with hand sanitizer and rules in place to keep everyone 6 feet apart. This nursery is beautiful. I can not imagine how fun it would be to come here under normal circumstances with the ritual coffee shop open. This place gave me life!!!! So many beautiful pots and plants. This place is much cleaner and boogier then other nursery and I am here for it!!!!!! read more

I can't say enough good things about Flora Grubb Gardens and the people who work there. We recently re-did our entire (small) back yard in San Francisco, ripping out absolutely everything and starting over, never having done anything like this before. The team at Flora Grubb helped us every step of the way - shout out to Jeff, Laurence, and Charlotte. They were generous with their time and advice, and as a result we now have a beautiful and not-too-expensive DIY garden that looks super professional. Besides the service, the mostly drought-tolerant plants at Flora Grubb area all so beautiful and healthy, and the place looks almost more like a botanical garden than a plant store. None of the big box 'Monrovia plants on supermarket shelves' vibe. It is very tasteful and looks extremely high-end - and yet their prices are extremely competitive. Can't recommend this place enough! read more

Great, thorough, and informed advice. Excellent selection. Worth the.cost! Heartily recommend

Best plant nursery I have been to in San Francisco, hands down! - Very spacious area with a large selection of outdoor and indoor plants - In my experience, staff has been very helpful and knowledgeable about different varieties of plants and care tips - There are a couple potting stations laid out in the shop, so you can repot your plant right there and call it a day! - There is a cafe inside with plenty of seating areas. If you've got a fellow crazy plant friend, this is your place - Prices are a bit steep compared to what you'd get at Home Depot or Lowe's, but comparable to other plant nurseries in the city. Rent ain't cheap, so it makes sense - Plants are in very good health, so it's good to know you're not setting yourself up for failure from the get-go lol - Location is quite some distance away from the main hustle and bustle of the city, so plenty of parking in this neighborhood read more

This place is totally amazing. I've been stalking them on Instagram for a while and was finally able to come in person. It's a beautiful oasis in the middle of the city. A-MA-ZING. There are 5-6 parking spaces in the tiny lot in front. Otherwise it seems like street parking is relatively easy. Also, close to public transit on 3rd Street. I was in awe of this space. And the lovely people who work there. Everyone was so friendly and helpful and kind to me. There is a beautiful little coffee shop inside too. Every kind of plant from a teeny succulent to a giant palm tree. Whatever you need for your home or garden. There is a beautiful courtyard with the coolest succulent wall. Like a sculpture! I definitely recommend coming here! I could have stayed all day. It's cool, hip, peaceful, beautiful and happy. I wanted to buy plants but we were traveling. I'm coming back for a day trip because now I know exactly what I want. read more

Flora Grubb IS the place to be if you desire outdoor cacti, succulents, ferns, and monsteras. Flora Grubb IS NOT the place to be if you need prayer plants, pots, or extremely knowledgeable individuals (more on that later). I made a special trip out to the nursery on the recommendation of a relative, and I was so excited because it was their Holiday Weekend soiree with Bloomstock Coffee and other independent vendors selling chocolate, cannoli, and other goodies. I walk in, immediately entranced by cacti, succulents, potted flowers, and monsteras. Upon entering the nursery's action center, i.e. where you can purchase your plants and find nursery attendants, I weaved my way to Bloomstock coffee. Out loud, I said "This is cool" and the coffee attendant snidely said "Well, this is a lounging area". I get it, you make coffee at a nursery, so cool, but let's just say based on that interaction, I decided not to purchase coffee. I noticed their selection of prayer plants including calatheas. While the aforementioned plants looked healthy, the prayer plants were disheveled. Their pots contained dry soil and each plant had so many dead leaves it was hard to discern a healthy plant from the rest. Somewhat similar to Sloat Garden Center - Marina/Cow Hollow, it's as if no one cared for these plants. I know they are fussy plants, but for a large nursery, I expected so much more. After choosing a calathea that was VERY HEALTHY, I decided I wanted to a pot. I asked one of the ladies at the cashier registers if she had any suggestions. She gave me one look, walked over to one pot, and said "This might work" but giving off an air of "I'm not interested in helping." When I asked for rocks to raise the plant off of the pot, she pointed to a bag and said "These are the smallest we have" and then walked away. I did more laps around the nursery in search of a nice pot, decided I needed more guidance, and FINALLY found a helpful person. She walked me through what could work for my 4-inch potted plant, with her even testing several options, weighing the pros and cons of each. BIG SHOUT OUT to the woman with red hair, YOU ARE AMAZING. FIVE STARS FOR YOU!!! If you happen to find yourself in the Bayview/Hunters' Point area, then sure, stop at Flora Grubb but do not expect the greatest customer service EXCEPT from the woman with the red hair. read more

I've been hesitant to write this review, but after my last experience here I must. There is a short stout Filipina/ Hispanic woman that works there. This woman is extremely rude, and literally rolls her eyes at me several times while I was looking around. This is not the first time she's done this to me. I see the way she interacts with white/Caucasian customers. She's quite bubbly, and nice to them, but when I a person of color is there she's literally scowling at me. I was there looking for an arrowhead plant, which they did not have. This woman was looking at me like I was there to steal something. She even went as far as to tell another employee to watch me. I don't like her, and really don't want to support flora grub any longer. I'm really tired of this woman treating me like trash when I'm there. She's brown too so I don't t understand why she's racially profiling me. I live in the neighborhood, and really don't appreciate the treatment. read more

Awesome selection of draught tolerant plants and beautiful displays to give you inspiration for your own garden. Totally worth a trip!

Really great outdoor garden with a huge variety of plants and succulents for sale. You'll find rare varieties that are not typically available at stores like Home Depot. The garden is sizable and if you're like me, you can find yourself looking at different varieties for hours. To prepare you for that, grab a coffee inside (Ritual Coffee anyone?) first. They have small, more common plants ranging from $5 and up (on the pricy end). You can also buy succulent mix by the pound. I highly recommend checking out the succulent wall, old car with plants growing from it, and the truck. It's a very Instagram worthy location. read more

This place is super cute and there is a reason there are usually large crowds on the weekend. Since I live nearby, I may try and stop by on the weekdays when it is less chaotic. As people have already mentioned, this place is awesome and one of a kind! Where can you stop for really awesome plants and succulents while enjoying a cup of Ritual coffee on a bench? The aroma of fresh plants, soil, and coffee fill the air here! Even though it was really busy, the staff still took time to ask if we needed help. The plants + pots can be quite pricey and add up if you get many items, but it is really awesome that they have a complimentary potting area where you can pot your newly bought plant into your newly purchased pot. Big big plus for that! Even my husband loved that aspect of Flora Grubb Gardens and he usually hates hipster-ish succulent places like this. Parking isn't too bad although you may have to park a few blocks away on the weekends. All in all, a really neat place and I really love my new succulent plants. read more

Flora Grubb has a referral list of recommended gardeners, each with a positive blurb/description. I selected one when I wanted to update my deck. The project was small: 3 large pots with 4 plants. Not such a small price: $2,000. Turned out fabulous but within 5 months, 3 of the 4 plants were dead or dying. Gardener refused to come help. No guarantees with plants but not great odds or experience. Contacted FG to suggest they might want to remove gardener from their list. They defended gardener and cheerfully suggested that I come by and purchase new plants to replace those that had died. Disappointing, uncaring, bad business. read more

They have an excellent selection of indoor plants and stylish planters, and their staff is very knowledgable. Prices are high, but come here during their Labor Day sale for 20% off all plants. We were having issues with plants dying in certain areas of the house, and the staff helped us troubleshoot and recommend more suitable plants. Doesn't hurt that the space is expansive and includes a coffee bar. read more

I really wanted to like Flora Grubb Gardens. They have a wide variety of plants and pots and it's spacious to walk around. Unfortunately, their customer service is terrible, so I will not be coming back. I came on a Thursday at 5pm and there were one or two other customers in the store. I was trying to find some help for selecting a plant but could not find anyone. There was a male sales rep helping another customer but seemed busy, so I ended up finding a plant myself. As I was waiting to pay at the cashier, the same male sales rep was behind the counter with another female sales rep. There was no one but me in line and they were chatting it up at the register as I waited to be rung up. The male sales rep saw me waiting but ignored me and turned his back to me. The female sales rep then saw me waiting and offered to ring me up. While ringing me up, the female sales rep said there was an error message that kept popping up on her side when printing the receipt. She asked the male sales rep for help, to which he walked away and said "yeah, I don't know." He proceeded to walk back to the female sales and started commenting on a plant behind the counter, not even helping her with the problem she was having. When I finally got my receipt, the male sales rep finally acknowledge me and said "oh, it printed!" I didn't appreciate the pretentious attitude of the male sales rep and even his unwillingness to help his coworker was a shocker. read more
