We visited for the D’vine Plant and Crafts Market and ended up loving the koi & turtle ponds. The setting inside the greenhouse is just pure plant dopamine. It’s an oasis from the city! Staff was wonderful, the selection of plants skews toward tropical [as the name suggests], and the prices seemed reasonable for what they’re selling. At the market I loved the variety of monstera, begonia, and crafts they had for sale. The plant stand owners were such lovely people. And the crafts ran the gamut from super cute (plushies, VW planter) and trendy to beautiful and truly timeless (high end pottery). I thought it was worth the VIP price of admission to have the whole market be so uncrowded for an hour and to get a tote with a new plant and bag of soil already in it. There’s a bit of public parking but not a LOT, so the number 8 and 344 bus stop being right there was super helpful. I would return next year for sure!

I've contacted Rainforest Flora by phone, asking for a particular plant of a certain size. The nursery staff helped me to find exactly what I needed. The plant was sent right away and arrived safely, it was nicely packed. The plant itself is of high quality, the price is reasonable, and I am entirely satisfied with my purchase. I can highly recommend the Rainforest Flora.
