Love this plant shop. The plants looks so healthy and they are definitely very well taken care of by the shop staff. Our anthurium is doing so well. Thank you for such a beautiful plant. It grew 3 new leaves since we brought it home. read more

I have been desperately searching for some air plants for my cute little matcha tin plant holders (gotta do something with all my used matcha tins!) when I walked in nobody was there and maybe there was one air plant? I don't know where the owner was but then a kind person from the location next door went to grab who I thought was the owner. Seems like maybe a partner or family member? They didn't know how much the air plant was or if they had more and had to call the owner to confirm. I hate giving mediocre reviews but I wish there were more plants or that there was somewhere there to answer my questions! read more

I dropped by a few days ago hoping to find a plant I'd like but then walked in and was dissappointed to see the shop was half empty. Not much plants to choose from. Also there were lots of pots on the floor in the back area which was a tripping hazard. So I left empty handed. On to the next... read more

Found this store on the East Bay while driving home. Great selection of house plants, including some cute, small specimens for terrariums. The owner Mia had a lot of secret gems - rare plants in great condition. I also bought the substrate mix, which was great for drainage and my terrariums. I could tell the owner and her assistant had lots of passion for the plant hobby! read more

I literally walked into the store a few minutes ago. I was the only one in the store, literally no employee to be found so I can't say anything about customer service... there was no customer service lol. A few rare plants lying around, but not much of a selection... I have more of a selection in my house. Wouldn't come back again unfortunately. read more

Plant Terra is way too expensive. I had been searching for a ZZ plant. I paid Plant Terra $40 for four stems in bone dry soil placed in a 6 inch plastic container. AND I was told I was given a 10% discount! No price tags on any of the plants so prices appear arbitrary. I should gone elsewhere. No one was in the store when I arrived and so I waited. Reading other Plant Terra reviews it seems the owner may be great for consultation, however, based on my experience, not great at offering a selection of plants priced at their true value. read more

Talk about a Gem!! I can't even keep fake plants alive so I was hesitant in going, but since we're in this pandemic why not try again. What an amazing place. Explained my situation and they recommended plants that are low maintenance to start with. From there was given additional care/tips on some other plants as well. My babies are doing great! Can't wait to go back and see what other new babies I can bring home! read more

First time being at this shop. They were already closed for the day but kindly opened up so my daughter and I can shop around. The owner is such a sweet lady very informative and her husband who was at the shop at the time was very patient with us considering they were pretty much closed. By the time we got ready to leave I found exactly what I was looking for now my fish tank look is complete with these live plants. Thanks again. read more

Very knowledgeable and her love for plants is palpable! read more

My advice would be to do some research online or shop around locally before coming here so you have an idea of what the plants you like should cost. I visited during a 25% off sale, which brought their prices closer, but still not down to the average pricing of other local plant shops. Because of COVID restrictions, only 2-3 customers are allowed in at a time. Although it would seem like a private plant shopping experience would be lovely, you are constantly reminded that there is a line of people waiting outside for you to finish. I was there for a very specific plant that they did not have in store at the time, but the owner kept pressuring me to put a down payment on a plant that I'd never even seen yet because she said it would be available next week. After I declined, she thoughtfully asked her associate to go to the back to see if she could put together the plant so I could take it home that day. However, when the associate came back with the plant, it was a tiny thing that they wanted to charge me 3x the going price for. I asked if they had a fuller plant, and they said this was the best they could do and if I wanted a fuller plant, it would be at an even higher price. By the way, this, as well as several other "rare" plants were we excluded from their 25% off everything sale. Red flag! It seems like their pricing is arbitrary. I ended up finding a plant that was tucked away on a bottom shelf, which for some reason was larger, yet priced lower than the same plant (but smaller) on a higher shelf. I felt bad for being in the store for so long to walk away empty handed, so I bought the bottom shelf plant since the discount would bring it down close to the average cost. There are many other plants stores nearby that have better selection and better pricing. The owner did say that their prices are higher because they source their plants from high end growers. So, do your research and decide for yourself if you would like to pay that premium. read more

Visiting Plant Terra, I was inspired by their selection of indoor plants, pots, and creativity! Mia (Maria) was behind the creative energy I experienced today! Not only was she knowledgable about every plant I was interested in, but expanded my imagination on how each plant can be arranged in pots and stands. The mature Hoya Krimson Princess was extraordinary & just too beautiful to pass up! I added Hoyas (Krimson Pink Princess & Hindu Rope), Air plants and Clusia (new indoor plant I just learned about today) to my growing plant collection! Mia helped me find pots & gave me helpful care tips to set my plants up for success & growth. Truly grateful for her expertise, patience, & this lovely experience at her shop! My mom has been ill for the last few years, so surrounding her with these new plants raised her spirits. Highly recommend visiting if you are in Hayward. read more

My friend found this shop on Facebook. The photos are adorable and so is the store. It's in the middle of an industrial neighborhood off Huntwood in Hayward. They allow 2 people in at a time due to Covid. To be warned it is extremely overpriced. I found a rubber plant which they told me is $90 but I recently bought the same size in Fremont for $30. I bought one plant from Plant Terra for $25 which I found at a different plant store the same day for $17. read more

Excellent customer service!!! Millie the owner is amazing and accommodated me and my 4 year old son who has sensory problems and will not wear a mask. After a terrible experience with a previous plant shop, I called Plant Terra and explained the situation and she was more than accommodating and understanding. Thank you so much for your kindness and compassion Millie! I appreciate people like you during these tough times! -- I walked out with a beautiful healthy fiddle tree & a happy 4 year old with his new baby plant. We are both happy customers and will be returning again soon. read more

Had an amazing experience today! The owner (?) was super patient with my questions and helped me find a lovely tree for my office. They also offered repotting (who does this??) which I gladly paid for - because let's be honest, repotting the big guys isn't fun! I also had my two year old son with us and the sales lady brought out a plant for him to touch and was super sweet with him - thank you for that. They helped load the tree into my car and everything was packaged perfectly, we didn't lose one leaf on our 1-hr drive home! Regarding the complaints on pricing - can you find plants cheaper somewhere else? Sure. Will they be healthy, pest free and full of new growth? Probably not. I've gone to quite a few plant shops in the bay area, and Plant Terra has some of the BEST customer service I've encountered. I'll pay an extra few bucks for happy, healthy plants any day! Thank you for the wonderful Saturday afternoon Plant Terra. read more

Cute little shop..m great Variety of different types of plants But way over priced. When I inquired about a plant, the Associate told me about the price. I told her it was too expensive for me, I wanna say the owner tried to convince me other wise and seem to have attitude that I didn't want to spend that kind of money. I did end up buying two smaller plants that were very expensive but cute.... The associate was very friendly and Informative. read more

I like this little store I just recently discovered it through a friend. I got off early from work yesterday just to come see it! I will agree with some of these reviews that it is indeed pricey which is why they lose a star BUT there isn't a store like this as close is this one is to me so I'm grateful. Every plant in the store looks very happy and healthy, they have a good selection on pots. I purchased a golden pothos and a "Mini Russels" fern. It would be nice if some of them were labeled, I like to research my plants, because you don't just buy plants that you want, you get the plant that fits your place/environment, I also got a small humidifier that's adorable and perfect for my little corner. I do have an expectation that individuals working in such a small store to be especially knowledgeable on all plants and pricing. Just something to keep in mind. Overall great experience read more

Cute new store dedicated to selling house plants! I kind of had a hard time trying to find the store at first because it is located in a industrial business park. I totally missed the sign that pointed to the direction the store was located at haha! Cool thing about the location is that I didn't have to worry about parking since there was so many! Before going in, they require you to sanitize your hands. When I first stepped inside, I was very pleased to see all the different variety of plants that were sold. A majority of them were beautiful and very well taken care of. Most of the sizes they sold ranged from about 2 inches to 6 inches. I think the biggest plants I saw was a monstera deliciosa and a rubber tree. They also offer decorative pots and plant cleaner for you to give your plant babies a little TLC. Don't expect these plants to be cheap because they aren't, hence why I gave 4 stars instead of 5. Some of their 2 inch plants are about $6 -- there were about 2 leaves growing from what I can recall. Pretty pricey but it's all up to you on how you want to invest on your house plants. I'm all about supporting local business, so I don't mind spending the money. Aside from the beautiful plants, the 2 nice employees helped sell the plants to me. They were super nice and informative about everything. They enjoyed striking up a conversation to all their customers that came in. I totally recommend checking this place out if you are looking for great variety in house plants. Just expect to spend A LOT. read more

Talk about PRICE GOUGING. Mostly 80-90% common(stuff you'll see at bit box stores) and the rest were uncommon, definitely not rare. A tiny starter hilo beauty for $45ish and 8-10 inch monstera deliciousa for $250ish. Not only were the plants extremely overpriced but they were also not well taken care of. Like what? They were either super dry, ripped, and/or limp. Everything just looked kind of sad. Not sure who is caring for these but they need to do a better job since ya know... it's your inventory. I can justify an overpriced plant for something well maintained and healthy looking but unfortunately, this was not the case. I've been to plently of plant stores in the past and this one by far is probably the worse. Sorry, not sorry. read more

Stopped in over Memorial Day weekend as they were running a sale. The shop was easy to find and so wonderful to shop in, a very wide variety of plants and pots. The staff was very friendly and helpful, the owner Millie was so kind and pleasant to talk with. I left with two new plants and one pot, which they repotted for me at the store. I would definitely stop back if I'm in the area, if I'm looking for a specific plant or just to browse. read more

We are new to the plant world looking to add some beginner plants to our sunroom. It's easy to be overwhelmed when you don't quite know what you're getting yourself into, but the employee and shop owner were extremely helpful and gave us a positive experience. They walked us through several different plants options that are great for beginners. They definitely took their time answering all of our questions and were extremely patient, even with a line forming at the door. Some reviews say that they are on the pricier side, however every plant I looked at were happy and healthy--I can't say that for many plant stores. You can't beat the amazing customer service, knowledge, and happy, healthy plant found at Plant Terra. I'm happy to pay for this kind of experience. read more

I had a wonderful experience at Plant Terra. When I visited, the hours weren't clear for when the store closed so I decided to go anyway. The store owner was so accommodating and had her husband stay a bit longer so I can look around while she FaceTimed me the entire time. You can tell she is so passionate about her work and does all that she can for her customers. She took my information at the end of the visit and mentioned she's available for questions at any time. It made for such a memorable experience and I look forward to going back! read more

I bought some beautiful specimens, however they were ridiculously over priced. They were not transparent with prices & had no price tags either. Upon asking, the owner would take out her calculator and add numbers (even with a plant with no pot). I feel like she chose her prices at that moment. I was told there was a 20% off sale so when I checked out I was asked if I had a coupon, I said no so I was told I could write a Yelp review to get my 20% off. They have beautiful plants but due to pricing, I will not return. read more

Small but highly packed plant shop. Worked with Millie who's in charged there and they were super helpful in getting me the plants I wanted. They didn't have the smaller potting size of string of hearts but she was able to put an order in for me with their vendor to get in time for my friends 30th bday. Really grateful for the coordination and communication they kept with me after I put in my deposit. They even made it look super cute and presentable. So if you want to gift plants, they will be able to help you out from beginning to end. They put the plant in the cute garden tray and had it wrapped and ribbon up into a white gift bag with gold wrapping tissue paper and gave me a plant card for free to write something special in it. Really grateful for their help. Only knocked a star off since we had to communication multiple times due to vendor delay in dropping off the plant to their shop and Millie had to coordinate to pick it up herself to make it in time for me. read more

WAY WAY WAY overpriced!! I actually used to come here because it was decently priced a few months ago. I've been to many different nurseries and not one have come close to these prices. My recent visit here these were the prices.. Monstera - $149 (10in) Alocasia Polly - $89 (4in) Snake plant - $99 (6in) Pots - $50 and up! Ridiculously overpriced. I have never seen a common snake plant that goes for $99? Not variegated whatsoever. I highly do not recommend coming here as a beginner (or in general) plant parent. You would get scammed so hard. PLEASE scout out different nurseries before committing to it. read more

Great selection of plants. However, its markup far exceeds fellow independent competitors for the same plants. I thought it was annoying not having prices labeled on many of the items, but when it was labeled, I was in disbelief anyway. It was something like $30 for a a starter monstera adonsanii??? $12 for a 2" ceramic pot? Yikes. I will not be returning simply because of affordability. Would definitely have more luck at Lowes or even Etsy. If money is no object and paying 2-3x more is not an issue, then definitely check this place out. read more

I would not recommend this place to beginner plant parents because they will mark up the price (for me it was a pretty severe mark-up). I bought a Hoya obovata splash and the salesperson said it was $130 because it was "very rare." Please learn from my mistakes and at least look up prices online on places such as Etsy to see comparable plants and prices. I bought the plant for $100 (YES, I know I kick myself every time I look at that plant and hate how could I be that naive it was my fault honestly for falling for it) and came home and saw it was being sold for ~$15 online with even more leaves LOL. She also gave me a "discount" because I was a returning customer and I did not want the decorative pot it was in. If you're knowledgeable about plants and reasonable prices for them, try this place out. Otherwise, you will be taken advantage of like I was. :( Staff was very friendly and informative though. read more

Just the other reviewers mentioned - this place is WAY overpriced. I've been going to other nurseries across Bay Area and this place has the most ridiculous price points. Literally saw the same plant and size at the other union city store on the same day and it was half the price. Asked for the price for this 6" rubber ficus and it was $90 The associate was really nice and friendly though. read more

Second stop of East Bay plant shops. Located in an industrial area, can easily pass shop. Be on the lookout! It's a small place, but lots of plants- a good variety. Loved that they have mini plants! They we're having a special, 2 for $20. Plus Plant week added an extra 25% off. Score! Lina? (Not sure if that's how you spell her name) was very helpful and knowledgeable. Definitely will be back here, especially since their having a Client Day on May 8th. read more

I am following them on IG so I had time today and stopped by with the hubby. It is an amazing place.

The pros: This nursery sells some healthy plants with some cute pots. Parking is available around the building and somewhat easy to find. The cons: I came here for the first time at 11 am right when they opened but they were still closed. Since I was on my lunch break I wasn't happy about that, so I called the shop and they told me their associate would be arriving in 5 mins which turned out to be much longer than 5 mins. The associate and her nephew didn't come until about 15 minutes later. I noticed their prices are more expensive than other nurseries too. Would I come back here? Maybe, if it was my last resort and desperately in need of a new plant! read more

We just visit this store and it was a very disappointing experience. First of all, the store is actually located in some business park deep in southern Hayward. Took a long time to get to from the freeway. It is also tiny. There was barely any plants for sale. There was no one manning the store. The few plants that are left were dying. They show signs of lack of care, and they're on sale at an exorbitant price. There was nothing like the pictures on Yelp. We left after 5 minutes. I theorize that the store is about to go out of business, so the owner just don't care anymore. They're not getting any new inventory. Don't bother to make the long trip here. read more

Lovely shop with great customer service. The inventory is in beautiful condition-- it's clear that the plants are well sourced and very well cared for. I special ordered a Begonia Maculata and the process was a breeze. I would recommend to anyone who wants quality plants. read more
