Sprout Home

Sprout Home came highly recommended by the Wythe Hotel, where we had our wedding ceremony. Coincidentally, my wife and I were also looking up local florists in Brooklyn that specialize in unique flower arrangements as well as terrariums — we had already looked through Sprout Home’s portfolio on Instagram and were impressed! It was an absolute pleasure working with both Shirley and Kalena, who totally understood our vision! I wanted a whimsical bridal bouquet and also floral terrariums for our reception centerpieces. Shirley consulted with us via Skype since we were planning the wedding while based abroad, and she gave great suggestions and was also considerate of our budget. Sprout Home was also able to accommodate my request to add gold wire at the base of my bouquet and to also incorporate a locket. We were absolutely thrilled with the results! Can’t say enough about how wonderful it was to work with Sprout Home. Our flowers were so lovely and memorable!

Shirley was great to work with and REALLY understood the type of flowers/​feel I was going for. I was so happy with colors, quality and placement at the venue! Highly recommend!

Sprout works fine as a florist or if you need some shrubs put in a planter. They have little or no experience with anything larger than a 10×10′ area, and no original layout ideas. I wouldn’t waste my time with even a consultation with one of their dead eyed art school dropout zombies, as you will likely walk away wishing you had just done it all yourself. For less money and attitude. We have had 2 jobs done by them, and we fired them on the 3^rd job’s consultation for being churlish, attitudinal, and uninformed.

Sprout Home offers expensive pricing for mediocre service and products. I wanted to love this place since it’s so close to where I live, but after my third time in I am not going back.
I wanted to buy small succulents for my home and from the selection Sprout Home offered was lacking. Every one they had, had broken limbs and were not very similar in sizing or color which is a pain for someone with OCD. I looked around the store for quite a while sizing them up until I asked a staff member if she could help me find more. She literally walked in a circle man-​scoping the table and said, «Nope, that’s it.» Without offering any suggestions or help she walked off. The rest of the staff were talking to each other and paying no attention to customers.
The one thing they do have going for them is staff member who seems to know a little about what is happening. She helped by spilling some information about how to water the plants and keep them alive, but now they’re beginning to turn brown and I’m not sure if it was correct.
All in all if you want to spend over $ 150 vegetating your living area I suggest going elsewhere where you spend hard earned money on plants that are intact and will survive the winter or at least Sprout Home.

We love plants. We have many house plants, outdoor plants, and a rooftop vegetable garden. We know what we are doing. But we were stupid enough to buy several plants from this place — 7 plants in total. 5 of them have since died (within 4 months) — all of some kind of fungus that we noticed on the first plant 2 days after we brought them home. Shame on us for not keeping the receipt. If you enjoy plants and gardening, skip this place and go to the places that may not look as fancy (such as Kings County garden center), you’ll buy disease free plants, save money, and be able to ask questions from knowledgable and friendly staff.

Great place to scout some interesting small vases. They have an interesting and unique (hipster) range of floral at an affordable price. The only down side about this place is that its quite out of the way to get to if you live anywhere in Manhattan.

I came this place during afternoon during week.
The street is quiet and residency area with some bars and cafes around.
The store is well curated and very nice feeling when coming in to the store.
All their plants are well taking cared and beautiful.
Their store is dividend into two, one entrance of the left side is for the cut flowers.
The one on right side entrance is for the living flowers, seeds, terrariums bases and so on.
I personally wish if they have more variety for small flowers because I came in this time for the living flowers for inside apartment.
However I also was on a hunt for cactus, they do have a good selection of cactus there.
Their pricing is not bad at all.
I will come back once when I decided which cactus I will add to my room.

The place is beautifully curated. Great selection. Perfect planters and a gorgeous space.
BUT if you care about price for plants I would shop elsewhere. I’ve gotten plants for half the cost in other areas of Brooklyn (feel free to DM for reco’s) that we the same height, size, health, etc. I’ll always come to Sprout to buy everything else for plants but the plants going forward.

Sprout did the flowers for my August 2014 wedding in Brooklyn and they were such a pleasure to work with. Their delivery was on time, the flowers were fresh and lasted forever, and of course, they were so, so beautiful.
Sprout isn’t cheap (someone bought flowers as a wedding gift — phew!) but they did work with our budget, gave us ideas to save money, and were accommodating in every way. I wasn’t worried about their service at all on the wedding day because they’d acted with such professionalism throughout the process, which is such a relief as a bride.
And one more note — for those of you who are color-​phobic like me, Sprout can do a beautiful job with neutral and nude flowers you’d never even know existed.
Thank you Sprout!

I live close-​by and check in whenever I’m feeling down. The atmosphere of the space is comforting, the space is beautiful. I’ve bought 2 venus flytraps and a pitcher plant, all doing well. Their selection is pretty wide from essentials to carnivorous plants, bunny night lights, elephant watering cans, etc.
5 stars for the handful of times I’ve come in with an almost dying plant – Not sure what the manager’s name is, but he’s printed many specific plant care guides for me. Definitely did not have a green thumb before Sprout.

5 stars for the greenhouse side of the store. The potted plants are beautiful and hardy and the staff has always been helpful.
1 star for the cut flowers side of the store. I came to buy flowers to make a little arrangement for a friend’s party, with a budget of about $ 60. None of the loose stems had a price on them, and the staff didn’t know the prices by heart, so I had to go through this awkward process of kind of asking one at a time how much the stems I liked cost while picking them out.
The kicker is that I bought the flowers about 24 hours before the event and a substantial number of them had completely and utterly WILTED before the event! I do not think these are fresh flowers and they are WAY too expensive to wilt the next day.
I will return to sprout for potted plants and gifts but never for fresh flowers again.

I’ve been dying for flowers I’m so happy and I love my single tulip, I didn’t want a bundle of them. So I was surprisingly taken here after having dinner and not only was this the cutest flower shop with amazing vase, rocks & the cute little decorating stuff but the staff was super friendly with big smiles! I also got a jar ($ 3.00)

The plant shop is great and I will definitely return. Today I bought a Dino planter as a gift and I want to keep it for myself! The staff were super knowledgeable and helpful when I was making my decision.
The customer service from the flower shop is terrible. I accidentally entered the flower shop because I didn’t know the plant were in a different location and walked up to the front desk to ask about items I was interested in, however, the girls would not make eye contact even though I stood there for a good couple of minutes. Not one of the three girls behind the counter acknowledged my existence and kept on with their conversation (describing the persona of an arrangement). Being made to feel invisible is not a great experience. I looped around the store a bit then made my way back to the front of the store, hovered a bit more and finally someone asked if I needed help. She was then able to tell me the plant shop was two doors down. This was definitely questionable customer service considering I was the only one in the store at the time.
I almost went home after the frustrating experience at the flower shop. Glad I didn’t or else I would have missed out on the fabulous plant shop!

I ordered a wedding bouquet for me, a boutonnière for my husband, and flower arrangements for our wedding reception at Wythe Hotel and we are very happy we chose Sprout Home for our special day!
Since I had a photo shoot there for a Japanese magazine a few years ago, I had recommended Sprout Home to a few friends who were looking for a florist for their wedding bouquets. Finally it was my turn and I was very excited to work with them for my own wedding!
During the consultation, Tassy was very attentive, creative and easy to work with, and suggested a wide selection of flowers and plants available at that time that would perfectly suit for my ideas and color palette for arrangements. I knew I was in good and professional hands :)
On the wedding day, I received such a beautiful bouquet, lovely boutonnière, and utterly stunning flower arrangements, which all exceeded my expectations!!! First I felt the prices were a bit high, but in the end I believe it was totally worth it.
I will keep recommending Sprout Home to my friends and will also go back there myself when I want to get a flower arrangement or bouquet for some special occasion! ;)

Sprout did the arrangements for my wedding at the New York Botanical Garden in August, and I honestly could not be happier! I gave basic guidelines (local, colorful, seasonal, fun, vibrant but elegant, with a variety of textures and phallic imagery [don’t ask]), but gave them creative freedom to make something beautiful. Possibly the best decision I’ve ever made. Everything was stunning, more «me» than I thought possible, and every team member I talked to sounded genuinely excited to be working on my wedding. Jennifer was so sweet, and set very realistic expectations with me so I could get the most out of my budget. And of course, the shop is an absolutely stunning place to visit, so I was more than happy to make the trip to do my meetings in-​person!
Being married at the NYBG meant the florals were really important, and the Sprout team also included non-​floral elements and potted plants to keep with a garden feel. Those were awesome, long-​lasting favors for my guests to take home, that even helped reduce the overall price! The cost was also very reasonable for a wedding, especially if you’re up front about your budget and willing to make smart choices to accommodate it. Overall, I would recommend Sprout highly to anyone that asks.

Waited for 5 minutes to see if someone would ask if I needed any help and I got nothing.

As soon as you walk in, you get greeted and just feels right!
I requested a bouquet of flowers for my niece’s birthday using light blush hues and it came out so pretty. The florist had also put it in a mason jar and wrapped it so beautifully, I wanted to keep it for myself.
I will definitely go back.

I cannot say enough amazing things about the work that Sprout did for my July 5 wedding! I worked with Doan and from my first phone call to the actual delivery and install, she was an absolute joy to work with.
I am not embarrassed to say that I know NOTHING about flowers, but I had a color scheme and I was hoping that would be enough. During our meetings, Doan was the perfect guide to help me realize exactly what I wanted.
I got the most incredible compliments all night long, and every arrangement was more beautiful than the next!

You, too, can have a green thumb in Brooklyn!
Browsing around South Williamsburg, I was really surprised to walk into Sprout Home and find a plant shop. And it’s wonderful in every way. I could literally linger in Sprout Home for an hour or two planning my imaginary garden in my imaginary backyard. The options are endless and the selection has everything covered.
What’s nice is that Sprout Home doesn’t just cater to small apartment living. It’s really a nursery for anyone who loves plants and flowers, design, and adding flora to the home. You can get small plants, large plants, planters, fruit plants, potted flowers, planters, soil, gizmos, and gadgets galore. I was particularly ecstatic to find a few terrariums and tiny plants and tiny figurines to decorate my terrarium. I picked my plant for a mere three dollars and fifty cents. I would have gotten a succulent too but those require direct sunlight and there’s not much of that in my apartment.
The walk through the backyard is a bit of a treat. It’s like walking through a botanical garden. Lots to see and smell. Just be wary and leave alone the giant bees. They’ve got pollinating to do and can’t be bothered.
Don’t forget to check out the cute dish towels by the door. I almost bought one but was not in the mood to splurge. Sprout Home is really a great shop. I’ll be sure to make a return visit when I’m in the area.

I love this flower shop in Williamsburg. I ordered my «Academy Award Winning» movie themed bouquet for Valentine’s Day. The shop smells so good and the people working here are quite helpful and talented.
Parking is easy on the street and there are many options to chose from whether for a special arrangement or flowers to brighten up your apartment.
