    There is such a nice variety of plants. This is by far my favorite plant store! I can't tell you how much I've spent here, but definitely get a punch card. It adds up quick and 20% off one day will be nice lol. I've purchased a beautiful scindapsus pictus santin pothos in a hanging basket, calico kitten succulent in a hanging basket, a monstera and a half moon monstera, a small silver leaf philodendron and a large kokedama plant. I feel like I'm missing something lol. All are thriving, giving me peace and adding so much color and character to my home! Definitely check out Put a Plant On It and follow them social media. They offer care cards for your purchase and are so welcoming and knowledgeable. They do have birds and a dog that roam free.

    The plants I bought here died within a few months. And I have lots of glorious plants throughout my home. These girls say much more interested in propagating their liberal political ideas than running a legitimate store. I am so tired of the unhinged. Lots of great plants at Trader Joe's always grow into enormous trophies. and they are always affordable.

    A great one of a kind shop. Found a prayer plant I've been looking for as well as a necklace for a gift. Very cute that they have a "plant hospital" where people can make appointments to get help with their plants. It's a little tight between the aisles and very humid for the plants. Just something to keep in mind if you have problems with any of those environments. There are also birds inside which are so cute but I know some people might not be expecting that either. I definitely want to go back here!

    Amazing shop! Plants of all kinds and price ranges. Staff is super fun and friendly, also very knowledgable. Everything is clean, cute and organized. I picked up a present for a friend for valentine's day, and it was giftwrapped for me! Also they have a 10% discount for people in certain professions. Awesome! If you are looking for a plant, this is your place! :)

    What an fun loving, spunky shop. This is the type of place that you step into, soak in the vibes, and walk out rejuvenated. I've been looking for some plants to bring some life into my apartment, and was hoping for some inspo upon stopping in. Inspiration I received, along with tons of guidance & help in picking out a plant that would best suit my space. Their selection spanned far & wide with botanical wall art, ceramic pots, and house plants galore to gawk at & leave you wanting to take the whole store home. I'll definitely be back, if not to buy a plant, to take a breather while pretending I'm in the forest as Amy Winehouse's "Valerie" plays in the background.

    Walking to the market I stopped for a few minutes to gaze through the windows, walking back from the market I stumbled upon a Pop Up Shop! Taking over the space that was Yotality, the newest plant shop is located on Elmwood Ave neighboring a strip of small shops. Next door is the M&T Bank and across the street is Hunt reality and the future site of a Lloyd Taco Factory if you are trying to picture it. Because we are in times or COVID, Yes you have to wear a mask. Yes employees wear masks, Yes there is a foot pump hand sanitizer by the door and Yes shoppers are limited by 4 to enter. The store is adorably laid out, upon entering to the right will be a self potting station where a variety of soils and soil enhancers (think fertilizers but also things to improve drainage and such) will be available. Per the owner a menu will laid out with prices. You can either bring your own pot and plant or of course buy one here. Not everything is for sale as she has some of her own beloved plant babies for display. They are marked however you find a variety of plants available ranging from tropicals to desert and in between. All these plants are houseplants in our climate and will tolerate being outside at various levels. The owner seems very knowledgeable and can provide insights, don't be afraid to ask! I highly recommend following them on social media to get the latest updates on happenings and plant shipments. I know a few beauties are coming in for the grand opening on August 1st. In addition to plant varieties you'll be able to find contemporary and antique pots, in addition to jewelry. I know this was only a pop up however I can't wait to see this little business grow! (See what I did there)

    I I hate to do this because of how negative reviews impact small businesses but I've gotten way too many poorly rooted and rehab plants from this shop that I have to spend time revitalizing on top of her uncaring attitude whenever addressed about the matter. Theres a large and silent population of individuals who feel the same way but don't want to bash a local small business who seems to support good causes. I don't know how some of these plants make the shelves. When my business received poor or damaged inventory, I took the financial loss and trashed it and offered customers free items or gift cards for their next return. For a business a lauds activism, supporting minorities and anti capitalism but literally sells anything at almost double the price and has no concern about it. Sounds like master capitalism to me. I've lost thousands upon thousands just to do quality control. My last visit, I noticed a good portion of the plants were dead and division size orchids are being sold at full prices. I was even sold a two leaf philodendron infested with spider mites for $120 that's widely available online for $40 and most recently a very damaged orchid. I've included pics of some poor plants I've gotten. An exchange with her, and another customer. When there was nearly an 100 comment thread on Facebook about this shop, I left the group because I thought they were being mean. Unfortunately I'm driven to believe the rumors are true. Also to not I reached out to her on day 5 of having the plant and she blamed the grower. She offered to rehabilitate the orchid but she's admitted publicly she's not good at growing them. This business is truly unscrupulous.

    I'm updating this with a picture to give you some context on how egregious the markups here are. It sums up the whole place really well. Fifth picture with two orchids: Small orchid on left: $13.00 from Put A Plant On It Large orchid on right: $7.99 from a hardware store I suspect most of the stock here comes from I don't even really like orchids but it was 8 bucks well spent just to get an accurate visual representation of what my review was trying to say

    Dubia! So beautiful

    This place is amazing, and I wish I lived closer! I am a serious California plant collector, and I can say the pricing here is EXTREMELY reasonable. They have a ton of common and more rare plants. I love Hoyas, and the Hoyas here look super well cared for, and not expensive in comparison to other plant places. I'm so sad I cant bring anything back from here, but of course I bought a cute handmade planter by a local ceramicist. Definitely check out their pottery, it's very well made!

    Two plants I purchased.

    Plant selection is fairly good (especially given that I went during the winter). This store has very basic standard things that every plant owner needs (proper dirt, pots, standard house plants). They have cute birds in the store that are friendly too and it looks like they carry local artists work (pottery). That said, I've heard this store will sell you plants with aphids. If you are a plant person, you KNOW how annoying aphids are. Upon inspecting the plants in the store, some did indeed have aphid eggs. Just something to keep in mind. I bought two plants (after I inspected them) and some succulent dirt. I wouldn't recommend or deter someone from this store. If you are new to plants, it's probably just what you need. Just... be careful about the aphids.

    Had to bring my nerve plant here to make sure it had died after a vacation. They told me it was but they were so sweet about it and treated it like a pet. I ended up leaving with a string of pearls and pothos and got to meet two of the nicest people I've ever met.

    Gorgeous Pilea pepermoides (the pot came from a thrift store).

    Terrific little shop on Elmwood! I love everything about the aesthetic- good selection of small and medium house plants, tropicals, local art, and macrame plant hangers. It's true, this store is not Lowe's, and as such cannot match the prices of the mega corporations. The few extra dollars are invested in this locally owned and operated business, and the heart of the Elmwood village. If you want the absolute bottom prices, then drive out to the 'burbs. This is a community place. Glad we wandered in- we'll definitely be back! Thanks!!

    Love this place and will happily return! It looks small from the outside but don't be dissuaded -…read morethey have a great variety of plants, garden-related items, garden art, plant care items, specialty soils, and really too much to list here. The place smells wonderful as soon as you walk in thanks to a table of blooming spring flowers. I was especially impressed at the collection of seeds that included things I have not seen elsewhere (celeriac! red and purple carrots!). There is a large outdoor section too that opens up mid- to late April, depending on weather (not open yet for spring 2025 as of April 19th but will be soon). Outdoors they have trees, shrubs, perennials, bags of soil, and a nice selection of pots. During the winter they mostly have indoor plants and houseplants, so if you need your gardening fix when it's cold out, you can probably find what you're looking for here. The plants all look happy and well cared for. This community garden center is a co-op full of passionate people who truly care about the place and the plants, and it shows. You do not need to be a co-op member to shop there, but it supports the organization so if you end up becoming a regular it is well worth considering. The person I talked to here has worked there for 15+ years and was friendly and very knowledgeable. This is not like the high turnover big-box stores where the staff does not actually care about your garden success.

We went to this nursery last May and bought a bunch of outdoor shrubs/bushes: 6 rhododendrons & 2 roses - spent almost $700 in total! Unfortunately, ALL 6 rhodies died by mid-Fall, and one of the roses didn't make it through the winter. We went back to Urban Roots, bringing receipts + pictures of the dead plants, still in their mulched beds next to healthy others. It was then we first learned that Urban Roots does not guarantee any of their plants, even $69 Rhododendron! This is surprising since most or all nurseries I've been to provide at least 1 year's worth, it's notable that I've only used once in 50+ years! Anyway, selection was solid with all the expected types, and the initial experience was fine. Just beware "PRODUCTS ARE SOLD AS IS!"
