    plenty to choose from
    Van D.

    OC Succulents is a hidden gem in Irvine. They have a wide variety of plants in a variety of sizes, but their succulents is what I know them for. Recently I know my direct reports have been really busy working tirelessly through deadlines, so I wanted to get something to show them my appreciation. I came on a Friday evening and they weren't too busy, but there wasn't much staff support in sight. I had some questions but I just wandered around on my own and figured it out. I chose 8 different 4" succulents ($4.95/each). I have this whole speech to tell my team how they are talented, unique, and beautiful in their own ways and I wanted to show them some appreciation. And the succulents can grow with them. And it's relatively low maintenance and long lasting, so it shouldn't be too much trouble. Waiting to ring up took forever. There was only 2 people in front of me but only 1 person at the cash register. Don't come here if you're in a rush cause it isn't a drop in drop out place. Also the lot they have for parking is an unpaved dirt lot, so your car will get dirty. I had to wash my car the weekend following my visit here. Great spot for the plant lovers. I'm not a plant lover but I know a lot of them so I'll come here for gifting, but not for personal purchases.

    I'd come here more often if this place were closer to my house! Don't be fooled by the name of this shop; they also have houseplants, planters, and landscape items. They carry all sizes of plants, from tiny ones for your shelf to huge statement plants for your space! The price is reasonable as well. I'm especially impressed by the variety of plants they offer. The workers are friendly and knowledgeable, providing tips to keep the plants happy if needed. I highly recommend plant lovers consider this place as one of their go-to spots.

    OC Succuelnts is a great place to get cacti and succulents for your collection. They even have some caudiciforms now. Their cactus selection is good and they have some uncommon caudiciforms as well. They also carry a lot of houseplants. Their prices are good too. Friendly service. Would recommend.

    Purchased air plants to put together this arrangement.

    Really loved their selection and quality of plants and products. I was in search of air plants and they offer a good variety of choices and sizes. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Prices are reasonable. They routinely get new stock every 1-2 weeks. Parking is a breeze.

    This place is huge and the offer of succulents and tropical plants is just as big. Prices are fair and some are really good. It's a place to visit even for just looking around. Beautiful tillandsia and African violets. Staff is courteous and you get a discount on your birthday! Almost forgot, they also have a nice selection of pots

    My cart full of of beauties!!

    Went in today looking for houseplants and it was absolutely amazing! There's signs letting you know how much light/water/difficulty of growing each plant and most importantly if they're toxic to animals! Brittany was super sweet and helpful. Answered all our questions and just very kind and patient with us. Definitely come check it out and you can bring your puppers! Honestly just a really fun Sunday date with my partner... it felt super wholesome didn't cost too much cuz prices were awesome!

    A lot of air plants to choose from. Happy with my purchase

    This place came recommended by a friend who is a landscape architect and it did not disappoint. The variety of plants was great and the staff was friendly and helpful. Would definitely go back.

    Potting table

    Nice plants and good prices. I made this arrangement at their potting table - $35 for bowl and plants, and you can use a bit of their soil, pebbles, moss, and/or mulch. One of the employees (Alexandra?) was very helpful - I had made the arrangement but she assisted with the potting and gave a few tips. It was only for like 5 minutes but another employee said she was supposed to charge for her labor. I would have paid but she let it go. But still a great place!

    I'm a succulent farmer. I'm always looking for inspiration and new looks. I discovered this place and I've been back twice since. I really like the potting Station. I'm able to buy pots and plants and put them all together and they look just great. They give you supplies to pot your own plant, which I think is like a plus plus plus situation. The last time I was there I got 10 plants and pots and I walked out and put them in my car and looked at my bill and it was $114. Damn. I'll be back. Nice people working there too. I'm always looking for a better place but this is the best for me so far.

    I found exactly what I wanted (Thai constellation) the staff are very nice and helpful there.

    Got succulents for this cute lil hedgehog
    Mary P.

    Wide variety of succulents offered including multiple sizes. Very fair prices. Good selection of other plants, pots and wood pieces. Amazing employees. Thank you ladies at the cash register! Bonus: complimentary re-potting table. That was so helpful, talk about costumer care! 6/5 stars for going above and beyond! Rare gem :)

    I purchased an old Radio Flyer Wagon and wanted to make a succulent garden for our front yard! The staff members were incredibly helpful and there was a full selection of succulents! My project turned out perfect! Thank you

    Are they open during sheltering at home? Thank you!

    Hi Alissa. We are currently open to perform our essential business functions. We ask anyone visiting the nursery to please follow CDC guidelines. Thanks for checking!

    Hi Fran! No problem, as long as it’s been a reasonable time frame, and bring your receipt! Thanks.

    Do you come out to plant succulents and what is the fee?

    If you buy a succulent and a pot they are kind enough to provide some soil and rocks, in a section by the register, to replant your new friend.

    Do they have a free succulent day every year?

    They unfortunately no longer have this though their smaller succulents are quite affordable (less than $2-3) so I'd recommend checking them out even if you don't get a free succulent!

I had a reservation at the Farmhouse restaurant, but arrived early and decided to explore a shop I noticed near the side entrance. The moment I stepped inside, it felt like being transported somewhere magical. The atmosphere alone is worth the visit. The boutique shops lean toward the high end, offering everything from home décor and art to unique jewelry. As you wander through, you're surrounded by lush greenery--the central garden and nursery are filled with a stunning variety of outdoor plants. Along one side, you'll find thoughtfully arranged merchandise, from seeds to greeting cards and gift packaging, with a charming pottery section tucked at the very end. Upstairs, there's a lovely deck featuring patio furniture and hanging plants, perfect for inspiration. The pathway leading to the restaurant is especially memorable, with a series of archways that add to the enchanting, almost storybook-like feel. It's also a peaceful haven for wildlife--I spotted sparrows, hummingbirds, and bumblebees throughout the space, which made the experience even more enjoyable. Parking is easy, with plenty of free spaces available. A beautiful spot to stroll, shop, and dine--all in one place.

As you know bringing them out could spread problems like citrus greening disease or even pests to other healthy trees...So be cautious! Im happy that they had the tree so no problem to keep it aside till the shopping is done. Citrus pricing was great for example: 7 Gal was $79.99 plus tax and 15 Gal was $249.99. So great bargain. Inside, also is therapy...Gorgeous decoration and they were so selective about every piece they sell so it was an enjoyable shopping experience. Also, i love their return policy they have 1 year exchange or store policy and i attached it for review. I ended up buying lot of cute things that i didnt have plans to buy but its ended up another great selection to my little garden. There is also a big parking lot so no worries to find a place and YES its crowded bit you can manage it easily.
