Ok y’all. It’s time to get serious for a second. We are SO proud to be among one of the best communities anywherethe Small Biz community of Philly. But we need your help this year more than ever as we all deal with a completely unprecedented winter filled with uncertainty. We need your love, patience, and support to get through this together. Stay tuned later this week for all of the new goodies we are releasing for the holiday season! Tag your favorite local small businesses!

You know what to do.

We have created a little Walk-Up Window on the weekends. Step up to the window and you can purchase anything in our store. We do encourage you to browse our online store to check availability, but we are here for last-minute purchases, pumpkins, outdoor annuals, soil and more! Window hours (for now) are Saturday and Sunday 11am-5pm. Masks are required!

Fall Bulbs are in stock and available for purchase in our webstore. Now is the time to plant Tulips and Daffodils to ensure a colorful Spring display. Your future self with thank you! Curbside pick up everyday from 11am-4pm.

VERY SPECIAL PLANT ALERT Do you have a huge space? In need of a statement plant? This is the ficus elastica of your dreams! This unique specimen is a very old one-of-a-kind find that we purchased privately knowing that one of you would be the perfect new plant parent for it. While we do not typically give "musts" for plants purchased from us, this plant is extremely large and extremely special so here are some "musts" for this ficus elastica: This plant must be placed in a ...LARGE space, next to a window with ample direct sun--a loft space with southern exposure, a large lobby or retail space with large windows, or a large solarium or sunroom (you lucky duck!) would all be perfect. This plant has spent much of this year outdoors in the sun and will not tolerate indirect sun--If not given adequate natural light, this plant WILL lose many of its leaves. It is HUGE and HEAVY! It is currently in a 24" pot. It measures approx 8ft from ground to the tallest branch (8 inches taller than Boban Marjanovic), and 6.5 ft at its widest. 5’4Susanne for scale. Transport: This plant *requires* a truck and multiple people for pickup and transport. It WILL NOT fit through a normal doorway, will NOT fit in a room with average-height ceilings, and WILL NOT fit into a normal-sized elevator. Did you check all these boxes? Yay! Head to our website to order!

Hi everyone, we are experiencing some technical difficulty with our web store. Feel free to call us if you are interested in making a purchase. In the meantime, here is some beautiful heuchera, one of our favorite colorful perennials!

As most of you may know, we are closed to the public but we have opened an online store for curbside pick up. Pay online, call us when you arrive and we will put your purchase outside of our door. No contact. Right now, just offering soil, seeds, some annuals, and potsfor now we are focusing on outdoor garden supplies (instead of indoor tropical) since seasonal gardening is time sensitive. Our small staff is keeping very limited hours in the shop cleaning and keeping ou...r plants and animals alive. So hours for pick up will be from 10am- 4pm. Be patient with us as we are all doing our best. As always, we are available to answer your plant questions. https://www.cityplanter.com/
