"The atmosphere was nice , with a large selection of reasonably priced plants but buyer beware ! I purchased a plant the other day. It was so overcrowded in its pot I had to split it into four separate pots. Not only that, but it had some of the worst root burn I have ever seen. The thing was practically curling in on itself"

"Stopped in to Strip district on Sunday to check out this store which I've never been to. I have extensive experience with houseplants (not to mention gardening in general) and I know what I'm looking at. Needless to say I was extremely disappointed in the quality of 50% of the inventory. Yes, some lovely plants albeit pricey, but I don't mind paying up for superior quality. Most of the plants we looked at had vague or incorrect labels identifying the plants. Many of the plants had browning leaves or incorrect repair cuts. When I look for quality plants I expect nothing less than A+++ QUALITY, and that includes absolute accurate identification of the plants in question. I found this store to be lacking in many aspects. There was a display outside with one plant out of it's pot just laying there near soil. The people inside when questioned about identification gave me incorrect information about several plants that were labeled wrong. This place has the potential to be top quality but they need more attention to detail, better education of their employees. If I'm going to pay top dollar for any plant these things need addressed. If they keep business as they are now, I will shop elsewhere."

"Cute little store in the hustle and bustle of the strip. A little oasis of greenery. There’s a ton of different plants of all kinds, big ones small ones. Whatever you’re looking for as a gift for that plant person or something for yourself. The staff is super helpful with finding whatever you need. I got a little plant as a present for my friend. And I couldn’t have been happier finding her something she didn’t already have. I would love to come back here and find something for myself."

"Great plant shop with wide variety of unique and rare house plants. Some can be pricey but it's one of the best, most varied plant stores in the area."

"A very niche and beautiful store. I bought a little pitcher plant, and they kindly held it behind the counter until I was done running around The Strip. The staff was reasonably knowledgeable and friendly. Downsides are much like they are for a lot of that area. It's small. It lacks easy accessibility (although there *is* parking, but it gets slammed down there, and you frequently end up at a parking lot quite far from where you want to be. Street vendors, while awsome, can make navigating the area with any kind of ease impossible when moving around with any assistance device."
