A brilliant shop with a very helpful and friendly owner. Lots of variety, with both indoor and outdoor plants.
Absolute gem of a plant shop!! Lived in Leith for over a year and am a big plant girl, however always went to the plant stores on Leith walk purely as I didn’t know about Quirkys. Went to the store for the first time today to find a plant for a present and the owner was so welcoming and a genuinely kind person! Definitely would recommend this business over some of the other plant stores in Edinburgh - especially if you’re looking for a a great deal and information regarding plants from a very knowledgeable owner! Will absolutely be coming back to get any of my future plants! 😌😌

Quirkys became an essential part of my "New me, new life" journey - not to be dramatic, I had to move and move into a place all by myself. Rather than be alone, I decided to get plants. Quirkys has been absolutely amazing in helping me supply not just plants and pots but also advice and wisdom. Sure, it's not a massive garden centre. It's a wee store that's charismatically full of flowers and plants on North Junction Street, but the selection is surprisingly extensive. As you'd expect, it's house plants you'll get here, which means plants suitable for many different light levels. I've not bought a bad plant from Quirkys yet, and I've bought many over the last few months. I started small, literarily, with little succulents which are happy with a newbie like me, trying not to overwater them and get on with growing themselves. I've moved up in ambition too, getting advice from the shop and buying larger plants. Spoiler: I've not always been successful, but I've not regretted trying, and I discuss my failures in store, learn from them and try again. Why do I buy so many? I think my green purchases are because Quirkys is a helpful place to visit, but the deals are a factor too! It's often the case that if I buy one plant, it makes sense to buy another and combo-up. Quirkys is really cost-conscious. So, in summary; a petite store in Leith with plants and flowers to match really cost-effective and fantastic help. This is a review from a plant parent newbie, so keep that in mind, but my experience of Quirkys was great on week 1 of "New life, new me", and it's still great months later. [September 2022 Update; Even better, still so friendly and helpful now with a broader range.] [January 2023 Update; Lots of generous bargains this month as the wee shop gears up for gardening session] [June 2024 update: Always so helpful!]
