I found Seed to Stem by reading an article in Boston Globe Magazine. They seemed like a perfect fit for my wedding because I was looking for something natural, earthy, and beautiful, without the traditional look of typical wedding bouquets. Virginia was kind, knowledgeable, and an excellent listener. I felt welcome and appreciated. She gave me plenty of time to share my vision, and asked questions about details I hadn't thought of. She was respectful of my price range and offered several suggestions for ways to make centerpieces and bouquets special without going over cost. She proposed succulents and greens to add to bouquets. She took time to educate me about options I hadn't considered. We communicated mainly by email after our initial meeting, and her responses always arrived in a very timely manner. Delivery was on-time at both locations. The bouquets were gorgeous! They were made of fresh wildflowers and greens in the color palette requested. Centerpieces were mason jars with gorgeous wildflowers of varying heights to move the eye throughout each piece. Virginia is a true artist. read more

Seed To Stem - Antiques Near Me - Worcester, Massachusetts

Seed to Stem recently did the flowers for my wedding, after the lovely woman at Sprout was unable to due to illness. I enjoyed all of the unique items in their shop, but I really loved their emphasis on succulents. For a truly reasonable price, I ordered a bridal bouquet, wreaths and flowers for flower girls, and a few large arrangements, as well as some boutounnieres. All of them were absolutely lovely and arrived on time, and most are still alive over a week later. Additionally, some of the air plants and succulents from my bouquet can be planted/kept, which will serve a perfect reminder of my wedding day. The women who run Seed to Stem are so friendly and easy to work with, and I would absolutely recommend them to any flower-purchaser and especially to brides who are looking for something more visually interesting than white roses on baby's breath. read more

I had heard rants about this place and decided to finally visit the store. I LOVED the plants and crystals and lots of wonderful items in the store, but the stuffed poor dead animals everywhere were truly horrifying. At first I tried to ignore it, but they are literally everywhere. I had planned on buying a few plants, but just wanted to get out of there. I love plants because they represent life and they make me happy, seeing stuffed corpses all around me just makes me sad. read more

This is the most interesting plant/gift/curio store I have been to, and have been to a LOT. Chock full of beautiful curated natural offerings that is my one stop shop for gifts...as well as something fabulous for myself. Choose something (and that is hard to narrow down) or pick out a few plants, an awesome pot, and they will plant it for you: voila, fab gift. Reasonably priced and an all around fun store to shop at! read more

I just want to move in and live here. It's that beautiful! Well with the exception of all the dead animals on the walls staring at me. But seriously this place has the most gorgeous array of plants, jewelry, crystals, candles and gifts. And the staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. I'm only giving it four stars because it's very pricey. Somehow I'm happy to surrender my wallet though. read more

Such a unique plant shop! There was a wait, due to Covid (we went on a Saturday) but well worth it! Friendly staff and such a great vibe!

Been coming here since they opened way back when on Shrewsbury St. Now they're located in the Crompton Collective building on Green St. Definitely a must-see place in Worcester. They have plants galore! Perfect for anyone who loves plants or wants to grow their collection. I will say that it is pricey but it's unique and you can't get a gift anywhere else like you can from Seed to Stem. Just come and check it out, you'll have to see for yourself. read more

One of my favorite lifestyle boutiques to visit. So many beautiful plant babies and gifts. If I could turn a room in my home into the actual Seed to Stem space, I would. Thank you to the owners of this small business for creating such a magical place. read more

10/10 covid precautions and the staff is SO nice. Pretty sure the owner cashed me out this weekend and was so kind. I have been having a hard time with covid, stress, etc and went in for sage to clear my house and was asking a lot of questions. She was SUPER kind and knowledgeable, and actually gave me some quartz and incense when I told her I was a nurse. I didn't think I could love seed to stem any more than I already did but safe to say it's my go to!!! The whole interaction meant so much to me. read more

This place is SO CUTE!!! It's definitely become one of my favorite stores now. They have so many cute plants that you wouldn't find in a home depot or something, and they have so many cute vintage style furniture/decorations. They had a bunch of really interesting books too. I definitely recommend checking this place out because god knows I'm coming back again but with a lot more money on hand. read more

This is a great place. Very unique. Crystal's. Plants. Lovely incense. White sage. All my fa prote stuff. Thanks!

I recently visited this establishment and had an awful experience with one of the staff members named Christian, he could not figure out how to process a gift card and ended up running it incorrectly. He charged me full price and never used my gift card towards the purchase. After I had left I noticed the transaction in my bank statement was incorrect, I tried reaching out to them to resolve the issue and get refunded but he insisted on talking to me with a terrible attitude and calling me a liar and saying I was trying to get things for free and that my gift card wasn't real and I was trying to cheat the system and so forth and so on, extremely rude individual! I asked to speak to the manager several times and he continued to be rude and tell me he would not allow me to speak with the manager! If you go here try to avoid this horrible human !! Terrible customer service !! read more

I think the only way to describes this shop would be INCREDIBLE. If you love natural history collections, plants, animals, or anything to do with geology, this is your place. Its a little pricey, and I do wish there were labels/notes about each specimen (with identification information, the collector, who collected it, date of collection, etc)... but If you are passing through Worcester on 290, this is a fairly easy stop right on Kelly Square. It is a MUST SEE! read more

This store is downright magical. If you're looking for tasteful gifts and home decor, or if you just love the natural world and its many wonders, this shop has a wonderfully curated selection of plants, rocks/minerals, books, and other beautiful things. The staff are lovely people, and the music played in the store is welcoming and well matched to the wares. It's more than a store--it feels like an experience. read more

Such a beautiful and cool store. I stopped in just to browse and left with handfuls of plants and crystals.

I LOVE this store it's all my favorite things in one succulents,air-plants,more plants,some crystals,jewelry,candles,etc. If you are looking for a unique place to be come here. Also you can read my review on The BirchTree Bread Company which is in the same building. read more

This is by far my favorite small business. Everything there is absolutely breathtakingly beautiful. From crystals and unique housewares and jewelry to everyday household plants to the more rare, Seed to Stem offers something for everyone. read more

This place is adorable! I stumbled across these guys this past summer while attending the Brimfield antique show and have been following them on Instagram ever since. This weekend we were inspired to do a little lunch and road trip out to the Worcester area just to visit this spot. The store is charming and we left with about $40 worth of little plants. If they do well and I manage not to kill them, we'll certainly be back for more. The shop owner is very knowledgeable and helpful with what plants will work for you and how to take care of them. Certainly worth a stop if you're in the area. read more

Love how different this store it! Plenty to look at, could spend hours in here! Pretty disappointing it closes at 5:00 and I personally think it is more expensive but that could just be me! Worth going into read more

Amazing! My favorite store in mass. I want to decorate my entire apartment with their beautiful terrariums, feathers, stones and airplants.

Walking into Seed to Stem, I immediately loved what they were doing in this shop. Offering terrariums, airplants, and succulents in a cool gypsy space that even Stevie Nicks would love. With taxidermy lining the walls, skulls scattered around the displays and a wide variety of well curated plantings, the space has a very cool desert garden feel to it. It's easy to spend a few minutes roaming through this gorgeous space and even easier to find something special and unique to take home. read more

I bought two terrariums from these ladies at the stART at the Station Holiday fair this fall, and they were two of the nicest people ever. The quality is wonderful and the customer service is excellent - love their shop! read more

This place is AMAZING!! Worth a look if you love plants, vintage stuff, terrariums & other awesome nicknacks. Staff and owner are super friendly and helpful. I will say this place is on the pricer side but it's a really cool place to visit with friends & peruse. :) read more

This is literally my favorite place on earth. Definitely quite pricey but understandably so. Such an incredibly beautiful place

This shoppe is absolutely amazing! A fresh breath of air for Worcester, that is for sure. Walking through the door I felt as if I was transferred into a magical plant filled world. They sell these beautiful terrariums that they create and also many other spectacular items. You have to go and see it for yourself to believe your eyes! The two beautiful women who run the shoppe were so friendly and patient with all of my questions. I highly recommend this place for someone looking for a unique gift or something to brighten up their house. They certainly have amazing things here! read more

Seed to Stem is one of my favorite shops in Worcester! I usually go in with the intention of buying gifts for other people and end up leaving with something for myself. They have tons of succulents and air plants in all shapes and sizes. The staff are very knowledgeable about the care of each type of plant. Aside from plants, they have a variety of books, candles, taxidermy, and other curiosities. I would buy everything in the store if I could. read more

Beautiful place. Everyone is very friendly and everything inside the store is so so unique. So glad I came across this gem!

This is one of my new fav places to go! I randomly went after work to see what the rave was about, and was not disappointed. There's so much to look at and so many options. Hoping to be back soon for another cactus. read more

We discovered this gem of a store about three months ago. I make a point to stop in at least once a week. The staff is always friendly and very knowledgeable about their products. We just recently moved here from another state and I have purchased quite a few of their plants and terrariums for our new house. Love, love, love this place! read more

This is one of my favorite stores on earth! The design is so inspired, and there are so many beautiful things to see! They have a huge selection of tropical plants that can't be found elsewhere in the area, as well as beautiful crystals, candles, books, lotions and potions and... you really need to go experience this store for yourself. read more

This place is incredible! I love air plants and they have a bunch of them here. Its a very cool place to check out. The workers are very friendly and help out a lot. I've been here multiple times and I can't wait to go back! read more

It's just a plant store, but somehow it feels magical on the inside. Whenever I go to birchtree with friends, we always stop in on seed to stem and end up staying there for quite awhile because there's just so much cool stuff! Great variety of plants, and I love the books as well. One of my favorite stores. read more

Looking for an interesting gift idea? Hold off on the big department stores and come here first! Seed to Stem epitomizes my personality. I always feel at home when I walk through their front door. Their style of home decor is a harmonious balance between the beauty of life and that of death, with delicate feathers, flowers, succulents and air plants nesting within the hollow remains of that which came before, i.e. animal skulls/bones, shells, geodes, salvaged antiques, and custom made glass terrariums. Practically everything in the place is for sale and their inventory is perpetually in flux (I mean that in the most positive way possible). If you haven't visited this shop yet - you're missing out! read more

Gooooooooooooooo!!!! It was an unexpected surprise filled with plant life, celestial vibes, crystals, taxidermy. The light is beautiful. The healing crystals are affordable. It was such a beautiful treat. read more

Fantastic place - one of my favorite stores. Period. The women that run the shop are knowledgeable and friendly. I have so much fun when I go in there. Definitely check it out! read more

You feel the love as soon as you walk in. I had many questions that needed answering and Candice knew exactly what i was looking for. I can't wait to see POE again! read more

Worth the drive to Worcester from Boston to check out this gorgeous shop. I get so much inspiration for my home and always walk away with a new plant, an incredible candle and some other treasure. You'll pay a bit more for plants than you might at a local nursery but honestly, the inspiration in how they merchandise makes that price worth it. I love what you're doing, Seed to Stem! Never change. read more

One of my all time favorite places to shop. I currently live in upstate New York but am from central Massachusetts originally and always make t a point to stop in when I'm in town. Loved their previous location but s happy to see they are doing so well and needed to expand to a much larger space. This shop is a true gem! read more
