Went here on the experience of a neighbor to find a new and easy to care for house plant for our small apartment. There are 100's of plants to choose from - we needed something to bring color and interest to our table. John the manager helped us find a great new plant from Brazil that has been simple to care for and gives us the color we needed. The shop is upstairs and a lovely light filled spot to visit. read more

We had an absolutely incredible experience with Mark and the SF Plants team! They decorated our baby shower with the most beautiful plants and flowers -- and in record time! The staff were also thoughtful and kind. We would highly recommend their work highly to anyone looking for the dream team to work with! read more

Plants are so intimidating but this place will handhold you thru the process! This was the second plant place I visited in SF this past weekend. I wish it was the first. Picked up my first large plant and a bonsai even though i've not been able to keep a plant alive because the staff was so informative. Mark even sent me an email on how to care for my plants! They made it clear they were available by DM's and email if I had any questions. So much to choose from. They answered all my questions twice and were kind to help bring the plants to my car. Initially was going to buy the plant online but so glad I chose this place instead! Check them out! read more

I stumbled across SF Plants by accident and decided to take a look inside. The first thing that immediately caught my attention was how kind and lovely (and funny) the staff were. They were very knowledgeable about their selection and helpful without being intrusive. The second thing that caught my eye was how extensive their selection was (they have two different areas) - they had a broad range of options in terms of price, size, etc. I walked out with a small plant and a pot. Will definitely be back when I have any plant needs. Highly recommend a visit! read more

This shop is pretty great with a huge not overwhelming selection. A cool dude named John helped me out. He helped me pick out 3 budget friendly low maintenance plants, 3 pots, and some education about plants, maintenance, and was a generally pleasant guy. I'll definitely be stopping by again when I'm ready to grab more plants. He even watered the ones I picked out. They take American Express/Apple Pay too which is super convenient. read more

My girlfriend started her plant phase a month ago and she's been wanting to check this place out. This place has two levels where you can shop for different plants, pots and anything plant-related you can think of. The workers are super friendly and welcoming and even gave tips on how to take care of the plants, depending on the type. They had a nice deal where everything in the store was 20% off. A pleasant experience overall and a great local business I'm happy to support in SF. Will be back. read more

I like buying from small locally owned stores. This one has a good selection & friendly knowledgeable staff. Make sure to go upstairs, there are some gems up there on a second floor. I bought a small plant & some soil & they answered many more questions than the value of my purchase. Found a plastic pot I'd had a hard time finding & threw it in. Will be back! read more

Accidentally found this store on my way to my hotel! What a wonderful store! It is enormous! They have two different sections. Accessed by stairs, i'm not sure if its wheelchair accessible. I love how big it is, and all the options they offer. If I didn't live so far away I would have purchased more plants. I purchased a succulent and a tote bag. If you live in the area or are in town I recommend checking it out! I will be coming back next time i'm in the area. read more

SF Plants is my 'go-to' for plants. Period. Mark and Dino are the reasons I am a repeat customer. Why? - wide variety of plants, many that look like pieces of art! - they take excellent care of their plants, I know I'm leaving with a heathy plant (but you have to provide consistent care to them e.g. watering, level of sunlight, etc.) for them to continue thriving. I learned that the hard way). - Mark, Dino and their team are very helpful, thoughtful, and patient! I pepper them with many questions. I'm surprised they don't run away when they see me arriving. Half the time I'm just stopping by to look at their beautiful plants (and pepper them with questions haha). read more

The service is exceptional; everyone who works at SF Plants is incredibly kind and knowledgeable about the plants.

SUPER helpful plant store that is located right on Polk St. I recently purchased a snake plant and birds of paradise plant and needed some guidance on how to re-pot these plants. Mark made the process so easy and gave me the extra soil to do so! Additionally, the other staff at SF Plants are super friendly and helpful too. I was able to buy a beautiful algoma plant while I was in the store. I'll definitely be back for more plants! thank you guys! read more

The plants here are great, and the customer service is helpful and friendly. My plants that I purchased during a month or so are still healthy and thriving with new growth. One star down because I notice that not all the plants are as healthy looking and some of the prices can sometimes be a bit higher than what I see from other places, but overall a great store to visit to get your next plant. read more

Beautiful store with an abundance of healthy bountiful plants. Love their aerial plant displays ($15, $32) and basic pottery ($14, $22, $50). Prices are a hit and miss. Some basic pottery pots are quite reasonable (see above) while some plants could definitely be found cheaper at a greenhouse or nursery (eg. Small peace lilies were $20 and small 2" succulents were $6.95). read more

I discovered SF Plants online and have not been to their store yet, but I ordered two plants on their site - a Golden Pothos and a Maranta Lemon Lime - and they arrived in perfect health just a few days later. So beautiful and much larger than expected! I tried to add my hand in the photos for reference. A typical issue with online orders usually is the packaging and the handling during shipping. However, in this case the plants were carefully delivered in person. I will continue to order from SF Plants in the future instead of other online stores where possible. read more

SFPlants website was easy to use, the selection of plants was great (they even had Fittonias!). The delivery was smooth and plants were in perfect condition. Mark even called me during the delivery to confirm. When I said that the person receiving it might not be home, he offered to deliver another day because leaving it in the front step might be risky. I would not have thought of that so it was conscientious of him to tell me. Will be shopping with them again. read more

Can't say enough good things about SF Plants! First for the plants: you'll find literally everything you would ever want and need for all your SF apartment indoor plant needs. They have a wide selection of sizes, shapes, colors, and sunlight needs of plants - as well as tons of attractive pot options to round out the look. The other thing I really appreciate is they get the pot fully situated for you with internal plastic liners and raisers so the plant sits at the right level in the pot - all the stuff I usually forget to take care of. They also give you all the actual info in terms of watering and light you'll need to keep each plant thriving. On top of that: they're exactly the type of local business you'll feel good about supporting. The owners, Mark and Dino are some of the nicest people you'd ever want to interact with, and they're incredibly knowledgeable and helpful with their plant care info. The apartment feels like a million bucks after getting the plants home :) read more

Sweetest, sweetest, SWEETEST company ever. I ordered something day of, and they called me to tell me that they accidentally sold it 10 minutes prior to me ordering. But they offered to take photos of other similar plants, and was just so cordial about the whole situation. Also, I think the person had an Irish accent or something, so it was even more fun talking to him. Anyway, I ordered day of (Friday) thinking it will ship on Tuesday. They surprised me and shipped DAY OF, on my friends birthday, and it was so sweet. Also, their plants are truly gorgeous. Like, look at the below. Love this place! read more

I cannot say enough good things about this place. I was calling around trying to find someone who would help me make a succulent arrangement in a planter that I was fond of and Zachary was so kind and eager to help on the phone.

Definitely would recommend this plant shop! It's a bit hidden so you have to go up some stairs to the second floor but was so happy when I found it. There are 2 floors of plants and every one of them seemed to be well taken care of. I'm not a plant expert but Isabella, John, and Mila where super helpful and considerate, and were happy to answer every single one of my questions. They also said that if there's a problem with the plant I can send them a picture on IG and they'll let me know how I can fix whatever's wrong. read more

I mean, what can I say about this place except that it's one of my favorite places in San Francisco. Me in a plant store is like a kid in a candy shop. I want it all! For a boutique, there are many affordable options! I always buy something when I step foot in the door. There is a great selection of tropical plants. Some desert plant options, too. There's new stuff everyday! If you want to brighten your home, this is the place to shop. The owners are also very knowledgeable and can offer advice if you ask them. Aside from plants, I have also purchased nutrient-rich potting soil and some fertilizer pellets. This is much needed since my apartment doesn't get much light and my babies need as much love as they can get. It's been almost a month and they're very healthy. read more

Lots of different plants, and they are very vigorous appearing. They look superrr healthy. The store is full of plants, and we enjoyed her time there. We also found a very cool plant. The workers were also very helpful. We definitely recommend checking out this place! Look for the signs from Polk and go up the stairs to the second level! A bit tucked away from the street. read more

Wow!!! Excellent customer service and quality of plants! We contacted SF Plants and the owner Mark answered. We were searching for a special birthday gift of a lemon tree. Mark was amazing! He went above and beyond to fill our order. He was so nice on the phone and said he'd seen one at his nursery the day before and offered to go back for us. He did, sent a text with photo and then shopped many other places for a planter to put the tree in. All the while staying in contact with my sister Nancy. Mark had one day to find and deliver and he really came through and made the birthday a super surprise. It is packed with Meyer lemons!!! A beautifully thriving healthy tree!! . We highly recommend SF Plants for the best customer service and quality!!! read more

If I could give this store more than 5 stars, I would. SF Plants is hands down my favorite plant store in San Francisco. The plants they carry are always amazing and so healthy. The variety of plants are constantly updating based on what they can find on the market. If you have a specific plant you're looking for, they'll make note of it and be on the lookout for it for you. Their prices are very reasonable in comparison to other nurseries in the city. Aside from the plants themselves, my 5 star review is especially based on their customer service. Dino and Mark are extremely welcoming to every customer and are the most caring people down to the core. They care about customers and provide the best services whether that be helping to pick out a plant based on people's living spaces/lifestyles, tips and tricks on how to care for plants, or even picking out the right pot for you! I lost my father a couple months ago and he owned a snake plant for over 35 years. It was staying alive but wasn't healthy -- it was drooping over and the roots were coming out of the soil due to leaning so far over. After his passing, I took it to a big plant store (name not to be mentioned) to repot it. It wasn't repotted well and it went into shock and lost a bunch of leaves. I was devastated. I thought it was a goner until Dino and Mark offered to look at it. They took it in for almost 2 weeks and nursed it back to a stable condition. So far, so good. I truly cannot thank Dino and Mark enough for the compassion they have towards plants and their customers. I highly recommend coming here for all your plant needs!!! read more

I came across SF plants because my usual plant store in the neighborhood was closed, and wow this may be my new favorite plant shop! I had no idea it existed as its tucked into a little outdoor mall on California, but just follow the lush plant trail up the stairs to find it! It's run by a super sweet couple who genuinely care about every customer. You just tell them what you're envisioning, and they'll take it from there! The prices are fair and I feel confident that the plants I buy from them will last a long time, and if you ever have a question you can ask them on their instagram or call them up! There are a few specialty plant shops in that area that are cool, but soo pricey and have so many finicky plants I would accidentally kill right away or not know how to care for. With SF Plants, you'll get exactly what you were envisioning and the knowledge you'll need to take care of it for a long time. read more

Mark is absolutely delightful. Knowledgeable, passionate and not an ounce of pushiness. My wife and I bought a beautiful Audrey Ficus that ended up being simply too big for our place. Mark lovingly showed us options for the next 30 minutes while consistently reminding us that IF we decided to make an exchange rather than a return that we should do it in our own time since one has to be "in love" with the plant. "It's art" he'd say. "You have to love it" They have added an entire new floor upstairs that is as lush and plentiful as downstairs. The staff wants to be there because they love what they do. The selection is all one could ask for. I just don't see any reason to go anywhere else to buy a plant. Plus, Mark has his whole County Cork thing happening which - for reason heretofore inexplicable - simply makes everything better. read more

I had a fantastic experience at SF Plants and I wish there was more I could do to get the word out about this place. The store was filled with a great variety of plants and pots - all beautiful! The staff was so friendly and accommodating, especially considering that I was asking a favor. I had received a gift card and purchased a beautiful Bird of Paradise online, but I was moving soon and decided last minute not to take any houseplants with me. After reading tons of positive Yelp reviews about their customer service, I decided to see if they would let me not pick up the plant and get pots instead - they did! Once I had narrowed down to a style of pot I liked, they brought out several of the same pot with slightly different coloring/markings for me to choose from, wrapped them up when I finally picked, AND carried them down the stairs for me! Great customer service, beautiful plants and pots in stock! read more

Stopped by SF plant on my walk around Polk st a few times. The store clerks are friendly and helpful. The owner, Mark(?), is also very friendly and give good tips for the plants I bought. Their plants are all beautiful and healthy. They take precaution buy limiting the numbers of people entering the stire at once and everyone has to put on gloves. read more

SF Plants is the best plant store in the city! When you step into the shop away from the bustle of Polk Street, you're taken into a cosy, sunny haven with all sorts of gorgeous greenery. I've been meaning to get a Fiddle Leaf Fig for a while, and SF Plants has an excellent variety of them. I didn't even know prior to my visit that there are two types (the bushy version and column/tree version!). A big plus? Mark, the owner, was also really helpful about telling me the conditions that'll help my plant flourish. Dino, who also owns the store, helped pack my plant for transportation, and also gave advice on how to take it to and from the store. Fingers crossed I can get my Fiddle Leaf Fig to thrive in its new home. Thank you both so much! read more
