While searching g for Plant Place's hours I came upon some negative reviews. I went to the trouble…read moreto make an acct with Yelp just now bc of those comments. PP is a long standing business in Wilmington and to post personal negative comments on the owners astonishes me. And to critique inventory and find rudeness is just too much as well. Long time customers will tell you that PP has been working hard and giving hard for a very long time. The staff are professional and gracious. Personal, knowledgeable help is always waiting. PP provides both small and large (companies) with the healthy abundant plants and extras that have been relied upon for decades. Extensive grounds and wandering paths, healthy indoor and outdoor plants seasonally. Seasonal touches that are always a treat and never ever rudeness. Never. The many years I have been here I've seen their reputation and enjoyed their establishment. On a personal & positive note I know that the business contributes greatly to our community. There may not be fanfare and billboards but many good things transpire in PP and the giving overflows to those around them. So, please hold back with the negatives, save helpful critiques for non pandemic times. The staff will gladly accept your comments and work to help you. I'm sure if it! Now, I gotta jump in the car and get over there and pick out my pansies, bulbs and seasonal surprises. Thank you to Plant Place for your many years of excellent service. Wilmington wouldn't be the same without you!!! Kendall Williams Wilmington, NC

I decided to give them another chance recently, bought 2 plants, and quarantined this time- both were crawling with mealies within 2 weeks. I thought I checked the leaves well enough at the shop, but I guess not. None of my other plants have mealies. This store definitely has a years long mealy infestation. If you call them about it- they will deny it.

I loved this shop! I visited my friend in Wilmington recently & told her she had to take me to a…read moreplant shop & she brought me here. Honestly I wasn't expecting much because the shop seems small, however upon walking in I was immediately proven wrong in my expectations. I am pretty sure the owner was there when I went in. He was extremely knowledgeable about the plants & was very kind. I had to go back a second time (even though I was only in town a few days) to get another look at the plants & buy a shirt to remember this gem! I felt as though the prices were very reasonable (and honestly less expensive than some of my favorite online nurseries!). It was very obvious to me that they source healthy and well established plants. If this shop was local to me, the owner/employees would be sick of me from coming so much! I ended up leaving with two plants, but if I could have I would've gotten so many more! My only complaint is that their online shop isn't as stocked as their in person shop, however that is hardly a complaint as going into the shop you can tell how well cared for their plants are!

For anyone who loves plants--whether you're just starting out or already knowledgeable--this shop is so welcoming. The owners are fountains of information and always incredibly personable. The location can't be beat, with ample parking and just steps away from tons of other great small businesses in the Cargo District. One of the best things is how often they restock plants and pots--you'll always find something new and interesting with every visit. As a plant lover, that's what first drew me in. But as someone who also appreciates unique fashion and design, I've been blown away by their merch. The hats and shirts are not only high quality but also stylish and comfortable, perfectly fitting the vibe of the store. And I promise you, you will wear this merch constantly, with how versatile and high-quality it is. Every experience I've had here has been wonderful. The staff are kind, the plants are always healthy (not a single one I've bought has struggled), and caring for them has been easy thanks to how well they're maintained before purchase. If you're considering stopping by--do it! You won't regret visiting this gem.
