I went in looking for a few low maintenance plants and Cole walked me through several options with real care and attention. I picked up a Hoya Compacta Hindu Rope, a ZZ plant, a Philodendron Lemon Neon, a Bromeliad, a Crassula Jade, an annual, and a six inch Euphorbia Firestick cactus. Every plant looked healthy and well cared for. Since it was a quiet Wednesday morning, I got very personalized attention, but honestly the service here is always excellent even when the store is busy. The staff makes every customer feel valued, no matter how many people are in the shop. The prices are higher than big box stores, but the quality and care of the plants make it worth it. This is easily one of my favorite plant shops in DC and I always leave feeling excited about my new plants. Thank you again to Cole for the great recommendations and wonderful customer service.

The staff is super knowledgeable, they have all the popular plants (fiddle leaf figs, monsteras, pileas, a variety of pothos) and it's slightly cheaper than the nearby garden center.

I stopped by while walking around Eastern Market on a Sunday which, by the way, is an absolute must if you're in DC. Their customer service was great. Everyone was so sweet and chill, and honestly, I couldn't complain if I tried lol. I ended up buying a snake plant. Now, look, I am not a plant girly. I could kill a paper plant with very little effort lol. So I really appreciated that they included a cute little care card with my purchase. Considering this is my second snake plant and I technically only have one now (pray for my plant yall lol)... that card will definitely come in handy. What really earned them the five stars was their gesture of offering 22% off to customers during the shutdown. It might not seem like much, but it's something and it stood out, especially since many of the nearby shops weren't offering anything outside of full price.

The store can be slightly tight depending on how many others are inside. There are so many plants to choose from. They all come in a variety of shapes and sizes. Be sure to keep in mind about pets and kids in the home. There is also plant themed gifts to go with a plant or just by itself. Pricing is very comparable to other plant shops I have been too. Bonus! There is an Incardi vending machine inside. Look it up. You get tokens from them to use there. But those tokens are to only be used at REWILD Capitol Hill only. This location is not to far off from a Metro station. A nice walkable distance.

Another thing was that while they do not sell plants by the cutting which I know some do, she was kind enough to offer cuttings that had fallen off that she was propagating. Overall, such a great shop!

We attempted to remove some ourselves but were quickly overwhelmed by the task. I researched native plant landscapers and came across Swamp Rose Co-op. After reaching out, Jeff, one of the owners, came to do a site visit. He was thorough in his presentation of plans and this February we had them come and do bamboo removal and plant some native trees and shrubs to act as a privacy screen. The Swamp Rose team was amazing! They pulled out over 2 tons of bamboo and roots! They planted native trees and shrubs which are thriving. Our backyard woodland meadow dreams are coming true. We have the team coming back in a few weeks to rip out the standard plants seen in the Silver Spring area (liriope, lilies, weeds) to replace with a native garden and we can't wait. One of my favorite aspects of this company is it is a co-op. The employees can be owners, and those who aren't are still paid a living wage as calculated by the MIT living wage calculator. They do excellent work! It is hard to find a native landscaper but this team is fantastic.

I've been here twice now…read more My first class was in 2023. I found them on ClassPass and I took a Tuesday night Yin class with Carley. I was not impressed. The sequencing was odd and her commentary wasn't my style. At some point, she said something like, "think about... I don't know... the window" and I just couldn't let it go. lol. Like, just not for me. I took a Sculpt class today with Aaliyah. It was fine, at best. I've been fortunate enough to take similarly-formatted classes at other studios - big, small, local, national - and this one just missed the mark. Aaliyah did a GREAT job of letting you know what to expect, and coaching you through doing moves correctly. But dear god, the insanely long breaks between every. Single. Move. And. Each. Block. Threw me off! At one point, there was like an actual 2-3 minute break. I burned under 300 calories for an hour-long class which NEVER happens for me. I think part of the issue was that she was doing every move with us and was getting pretty tired herself. The pace wasn't consistent enough for me. But there were older and pregnant people in class so maybe that's the gentler version. I appreciate that there's a yoga offering in this location but the styles here aren't for me. Like, I didn't even need or want a savasana at the end and didn't have the same clarity I normally do. That said, if you want a class where you're not really pushed to your edge and you want a slower pack with more sculpting handholding, this place is great!
