Why You Might Consider Alternatives

  • Interior Aesthetics (Initial Impression): Although the shop is lovely, the interior design may be basic. Some reviews mention that it's a work in progress, especially shortly after opening.
  • Availability (Limited at Times): Be aware that shelves might appear a bit bare, particularly shortly after opening or if they've experienced higher-than-expected customer traffic.
  • Potential Plant Damage (Online Orders): While the majority of plants are healthy, there's a chance that online orders may occasionally have some damage. Be prepared to contact customer service if this occurs.
