Sloat Garden Center is our favorite place to pick up everything we need for the garden! It’s the perfect spot for high-quality, local plants and expert advice. We grabbed tomato, bell pepper, and broccoli plants—plus a few other goodies—to get us ready for the season. Everything looked healthy and well cared for, and the staff was friendly and helpful. They also have a great selection of pots if your garden needs a little facelift—stylish options for every size and space. Whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned gardener, this place has everything to get you growing!
I love this place so much. I like going there after work to relax (Plant Happy Hour). Great variety of plants in a beautiful setting, nice and helpful staff, the selection of plants changes often, so if you like something, grab it! And right in the city.
There are SO MANY different kinds of plants here, and so many huge ones! It is actually like a jungle when you go inside. I am addicted to buying their self-watering planters, since they're a convenient size with a 4" potting area and a nice urn-shape that makes them easy to pick up. They come at a great price with lots of pretty colours. It's very intuitive to find the kinds of plants you want, and you can easily find new plants to love just by looking around. The staff are very helpful and always eager to answer questions. There's also all kinds of material for decoration and different growing styles. There's a whole shelf dedicated to terrariums. Another for seeds and bulbs. I like coming here for moss and stones too, and they have their own mixes of potting mix and soil organized by their usage.
** late post- visited 2/2020*** Nice variety of plants and materials. Succulent selection was on the smaller side but it was also early in the season. My only complaints were the staff were inattentive and seemed too busy or like there weren’t enough and overall their pricing was really really high. I understand this is SF and minimum wage and rent are higher but even for the city things seemed pricey. Just my opinion. Still a nice place and I’ll probably go back to browse
Good selection of plants, pots, soils, and seeds. Informative and friendly staff will answer your questions about growing and caring for your plants, and recommend products to help with it. There is a convenient parking lot just outside. However, the prices are sometimes a little steep, often you can find similar choices at home Depot or a plant nursery in the city. Convenient location for the sunset.

Your urban oasis for high-quality plants, expert advice, and everything to grow your garden in San Francisco.
