My 700th review!…read more I've always noticed this garden center near the exit of the Holland Tunnel. When I was hunting for garden centers in the area, this came up with great reviews and I decided to check it out. It was definitely better than expected. They had a really nice selection of both indoor and outdoor plants. I came looking specifically for hydrangeas, and they probably had 10 to 15 varieties available - some needing full sun and some needing partial. The gentleman that was working there was very friendly. I wanted two plants that looked similar to sit side-by-side by my front door. He helped me choose the variety, and two plants that looked the most similar. We ended up deciding on the candy apple variety by Monrovia. It needs full sun and should bloom through summer with blooms that will last till October. Once I paid, they carried the plants out to the car for me, laid plastic in my car and packed everything for me. I thought this was really a nice service. This is definitely more expensive than Home Depot, but they carry much nicer product with wider variety and better service. Especially if you're just looking for a couple plants, I would definitely come here instead. I asked about some fall perennial plants, and he recommended I come back after Halloween to check out what they'll have in season for winter. I will definitely be back.

We had been diligent about watering and fertilizing, yet they looked awful. When we pulled up the plants to take a look, they were filled with grubs.

They have two side-by-side store fronts. One is dedicated to succulents while the other is entirely for tropicals. While the plants aren't particularly inexpensive, they are gorgeous and healthy. One thing I did want to note was that I did feel like the staff hovered around me. This is completely understandable since I'm sure they've had issues with shoplifting. That being said, it was a little off putting and I did not enjoy being followed around the store. However, they have a super adorable shop cat which makes up for the hovering! I ended up purchasing an orchid, a crested cactus, and a haworthia and they are all thriving!

Rudo has cut flower bouquets,…read moreplants of all sizes and care needs and price points, lots of different pots, and things for your plants of course. I've stopped in a bunch of times just to browse if I am nearby and don't always walk out with something, but I love just seeing what is new in the shop. I have gotten a really cute little rubber tree as a gift for a neighbor, a bottle of neem oil to help a pest problem I've been having and a few other small plants I just couldn't leave behind. The staff are always so friendly and there to answer questions, even if it's about a problem plant I have at home. I love love love that they usually have a little rehab plant section for a big chunk off. I thinkkkk I have a good green thumb so I will always be down to bring a new little green leafy friend home and try to bring him back, especially if that means getting a good deal on it. Highly recommend if you just love checking out new plant shops, or if you are in the area and are looking for fresh flowers. And they are pup friendly! My dog is usually just as eager to stop in as I am because he knows he'll get a warm welcome and maybe a treat.

East Harlem is lucky to have this local Urban Garden Center for plants nearby, under the Metro…read moreNorth on Park Avenue. I'm not normally buying plants or plant-related products because the only success I've had in my apartment is one type of succulent (the Hobbit Jade Plant) that seems to thrive no matter what. That being said, I wanted to combine two separate plants into one pot on my window sill and needed the soil and a rectangular planter. Note - The only rectangular planters I saw were plastic, the soil was pricy compared to Home Depot, and an additional Hobbit Jade Plant was pricier there than what I've seen elsewhere. That being said, there may be other items competitive in price or not available elsewhere... plus (at least for me) it's convenient. Plus, it sells items like soil in smaller quantities, which may be convenient for people with small apartments. Recommend coming and checking Urban Garden Center out, including its chickens both in the hen house and roaming around free range!

Avoid this business!!!: UGC justifies bad behavior without apology. Customers are not respected,…read morefrom rude staff answering the phone with attitude, lack of communication regarding stated arrival time, to poor installation of plants that is not done with accepted standard practice of professional gardeners for the health of plants. Also, the plants that cost me a couple of thousand dollars had many broken branches because the workers rushed to install them. They also want payment up front before any delivery/installation/scheduling. It was a horrible and stressful experience. Informing the owner of my experience resulted only in his making excuses for USG's bad actions with no apology whatsoever. ***And because I posted my review, the owner Dimitri vindictively told me that he would no longer stand behind the plants or the work done to make things right. He didn't like my honest review. Prior to my review, he was willing to make right his failures, if needed. It is disappointing that UGC is unable to acknowledge its mistakes or shortcomings, and that they do not know how to interact with customers.

We're not even permitted to enter the building at another floral distributor's location... Their prices are unbelieveable, I am so very grateful that this location has opened, and the people here: WOW! SMILING! GREETING! It's very unnerving to visit a place of flowers of ANY nature (wholesale, retail, etc.) and be greeted with long faces and poor attitudes... it's subconsciously confusing, right?! Our shop is working several weddings this upcoming weekend and I just picked up a large order of flowers from here (over $3K)... Finally, I'm able to open a bunch of flowers and smile as each bunch is opened, instead of the usual "sigh! that rose is bad, this hydrangea is bad, this astilbe isn't going to make it, WTF is this in here?!" I know as "AI" gets more of a foothold in our lives it's getting more difficult to discern real-reviews from fake/generated comments. Feel free to send me a message if you feel you need to know if I'm real or not; for now, I can assure you that you will sincerely be pleased with Main Wholesale Florist, especially their new location in Pennsauken, NJ! Thank you so very much for opening this location and for the refreshing experience. My faith in this industry has been restored! :-) Since folks find some weight to the question of "how long you've been doing this?", I've been a florist for 35 years now and counting... :-)
