“I cannot recommend this place enough! They helped me transform the space in front of our new home from a neglected lawn into the beginnings of a beautiful pollinator garden. Katie and Rebecca offered great advice, and the store provided soil, mulch, and plants at a reasonable price. I look forward to returning soon. (Plus, the shop cat is adorable—a truly sweet little gal.)”
“If you’ve got any plant needs, city grows lawrenceville is the place to go! My sister and I stopped in this afternoon to get supplies to make a dog water bowl planter for my pup. We were expecting to just go in and pick out a few plants, but we wanted to make sure we made good decisions so we asked for help from who happened to be the shop owner’s husband, Tony. He was SO helpful and kind, he made the whole process of picking out cute, pet safe plants really easy and enjoyable! Tony went above and beyond to make sure we got the correct amount of soil and advised us about various plants around the shop. We loved our experience there, it felt like such a cozy part of the neighborhood and I’ll 100% be stopping back there next time I want to expand my indoor jungle.”
“We had trouble finding a tall Christmas tree (12’). They had a great selection and were so nice! We also found cedar roping which is also hard to find. This will be our first stop next year and worth the drive from Sewickley!”
“I truly cannot begin to describe how much joy this shop gives me! I lived in Pittsburgh 10 years ago and loved the shop, moved away and came back for a visit and have rediscovered them via their website! Needless to say, i have ordered several hauls from Roxanne already! Haha thank you so much! The quality and beauty is unmatched!”
“Such a cute shop and so many great plants! There are a wide variety of house plants, labeled with the species type as well as whether they are pet safe. Employees were super knowledgeable and the atmosphere was amazing. They also have pots, stickers, and other assorted plant accessories.”
“My family makes it a point to support local small family businesses as much as we possibly can. Especially in this economy….We need to support family owned small businesses . We saw an ad for Meders Nursery and I needed to make my pool area look pretty so I said let’s go! They have a huge selection at great prices! The staff was very friendly and the owner even came to talk to us! She is so sweet! They have a large variety of things I’ve never seen before. Stop shopping Home Depot and Lowe’s and get your flowers at Meders Nursery in Pleasant Hills.”
“I ordered an orchid arrangement from the website but did not get orchids. A bit disappointed about this since what I got was not as pretty. But the recipient liked them.”
“Katlyn's artistic talent and ability to design the most beautiful floral décor for my daughter's wedding was beyond compare. At the first meeting Katlyn and Jimmy asked all the right questions to effortlessly create a vision for the bouquets, boutonnieres and centerpieces with the perfect color palette, favorite flowers and style described by the bride and groom. All of the personal arrangements were beautiful but my daughter's bouquet was exceptionally beautiful...she loved it!
With Katelyn's valuable input the overall look of the reception venue was spectacular. The centerpiece on every table was unique and along with the elegant place settings were absolutely breathtaking. The guests and wait staff commented on the delicate and delightful fragrance that permeated the room and added such a nice touch. Everyone was overwhelmed with the beauty of the ambiance Katlyn and her team so masterfully created. We were so grateful for Katlyn's fun, dynamic way of sharing her expertise and offering detailed recommendations that made a difference. Katlyn was so kind and made us feel like family. To Katlyn and her team's credit, so many guests told us it was the most beautiful wedding they've ever attended and we agreed!”
“I have never been more impressed with a landscape contractor. These guys did an excellent job with quality materials and they work extremely fast. I am so happy I waited for them to do this job. Yes there is a wait but it’s worth it. I overheard them talking and the one guy said how it felt good to be outside working and that is a good sign That they are happy and take pride in what they are doing.”
“I purchased some beautiful houseplants here that are thriving! I appreciated the time spent explaining plant maintenance, etc. The customer service is amazing! Support local businesses! Shop here-you won’t regret it.”
“Rented a breaker from Reagan today. I wasn’t sure exactly which one to go with, but followed her advice which turned out to be perfect. Process was quick and simple, got all the info I needed and was able to get my project completed!”
“I didn't like the neighborhood, and not really impressed with the store, but Sonya in the garden department was very nice. She helped me pick out mothers day flowers that aren't easily killed. She made the trip worthwhile.”
“Kristen from the Garden Center was fantastic! I had a problem with a hose I had purchased several years ago and he patiently studied the hose and was able to fix the problem. Kristen saved me the purchase price of a new hose and explained how to fix the issue if it happens again. Great job Kristen, very much appreciated.”
“What a great place - - The Botanical Emporium Florist & Greenhouse!!! I went there today and the customer service was phenomenal! The Owner’s Sister helped me with my purchases. She was great! I came out with more than I planned, but so worth it! If you haven’t been there, stop in!! You will definitely find what you’re looking for and more! I will definitely be back!”
“I visited here for the first time and my experience, just wow is really all I can say. These two gentlemen really made my day! From helping me with my project, to my kids, to walking me to my car. They were amazing. Really went above and beyond. Not too sure their names. You don’t find people who like their jobs that much really anymore. I wish there were more people like them in the world. Thank you guys so much!!!!”
“They never seem to have that I want but it can be available the next day. .. nice. But inconvenient. Just like Lowes. May as well buy online u less they actually have what you want. Forget calling them to find out. You'll get a guy in plumbing that hates phones.”
“Nicole provided great customer service. She was professional while also making me comfortable with her friendly approach. She maded sure I understood how the estimate was determined and advised me to contact her if I had additional questions. 😊”
“It's nice but no matter what I'm looking for, every time I'm there I'm told it's not the right time for it, etc. I've been gardening for most of my life, including having owned acreage. I don't go to the nursery for lectures & pop quizzes. I did botany at university. I'm just shopping here for higher quality plants that are indeed higher priced than big box stores. Less attitude would be much appreciated.”
