Chicago Plant Babe

I went in for the first time to try and find a drip tray and some other accessories and when I asked about them the owner laughed and said “we have them but don’t sell them.” And then I tried to shrug it off and brought up a rare plant in shop and was only met with “well there she is” and then silence rather than the owner being engaging, welcoming, or informative. Was a very disenchanting experience and I felt like a bother. I won’t be going back.

My sister and I came in Sunday to pick up an order and look around. The owner was exceptional nice. She has a bubbly attitude and seemed very knowledgeable about all plants inside. The plant that was ordered online was picked by her and she picked a plant with new growth instead of a plant fully matured which was great. I want to see the plant growth, so, appreciated the plant she picked out. Music was being played and catchy songs. She gave us tips on how to properly care for the additional plants we purchased. She has her own soil mix for some plants. I called with a question days later and she was polite and eager to help and explain the answer. I recommend this shop to all plant lovers. You can tell she loves what she do. I love my new plant babies.

Such a cute, well stocked store. Loved the pot selections and assortment of plants (especially the fact that the pet friendly ones are all labeled!) Amy was super sweet helping me choose both pet & beginner friendly plants. I’m so grateful that she took the time to explain how to care for each plant (ideal locations/sunlight, water needs & what to look out for). I’ll definitely be back again to continue growing my collection 😊

💚💚💚💚💚 I recently saw Chicago Plant Babe on Instagram, I was captivated by the lush greenery and the vibrant atmosphere of the store. I sent my son to Chicago from Hartford to check it out. The store is a true haven for plant enthusiasts, offering an incredible variety of tropical plants that are healthy and thriving. The staff, especially the owner, were incredibly knowledgeable and friendly. They took the time to answer all questions and provided valuable tips on plant care. Their passion for plants is evident, and it made the entire visit even more enjoyable. He ended up bringing home a stunning marbled pothos, which has already become a cherished addition to my collection. The quality and selection of plants here are top-notch, and the prices are very reasonable. If you're in Chicago and love plants, this store is a must-visit. I can't recommend it highly enough!

Such a cute newly added gem in Lincoln Park!! Amy (the owner) has created a space that is so warm and welcoming. She is so helpful and will help you answer all of your plant questions. There was an amazing variety of plants and she did a great job making recommendations for the low maintenance plants we were looking for. And I’ve never seen such honest prices for gorgeous plants. We will definitely be back!
