Gold Leaf Botanicals

Love this place, super friendly, and very knowledgeable. I've been there 3 times now and definitely plan to go back many more times. I highly recommend Gold Leaf Botanicals.

Gold Leaf Botanicals was not only a beautiful store, but the owners are just amazing. They are so kind, patient and knowledgable. I went with my roommates last night and we left with so much more knowledge than we had before. The plants we bought were gorgeous and the care and love they’ve put into the place is so obvious! Will 100% be coming back!

I just love this place! Such knowledgeable owners and a fantastic selection of beautiful and healthy plants. I breathe easier just walking into the store.

Wonderful little shop! It's so serene as soon as you enter the shop. The plants are happy and so are the owners and employees. Very easy to chat with staff, who are very knowledgeable. They even have a points system: 10 points per dollar spent that you can redeem in store. Will definitely be back again.

Love this place! Mike & Brian are such great people. Their passion and knowledge for what they do is inspiring. I enjoyed the great conversation and I’m so happy with my purchase. Looking forward to coming back to Kitchener again. Highly recommended.

Great Product!
I bought Koppert's Thrips & Whitefly Solution: Swirski Ulti-Mite as I feared to have a thrips infestation started.
I bought this product without knowing the pest name.
They are all gone. I am super excited and happy for this product.

You all have to try it once and you will be convinced.

Beautiful store, lots of variety! Got this gorgeous plant that I’ve been searching for for a while and I’m confident it’s been well loved. The people in there are so passionate. I will definitely return!

If you love plants, have any questions about plants, or you are considering buying plants for the first time, in a queer safe space please check out Gold Leaf Botanicals. You are supporting a local business and the proprietors are knowledgeable and are lovely to chat with. I will definitely be returning because one can never have enough plants.

Amazing experience getting plants for a new apartment and having the phenomenal guidance and opinions they provided. From great prices, to also promoting other artists and plant lovers, they provide an amazing experience second to none. 11/10 would recommend Gold Leaf!

Amazing customer service and wonderful selection. They do a great job in supporting local start-ups. At least check them out!

Bryan with a Y and Michael with a M, they are the best educators on plants, practical enough to not whine on dead plants and get new plants ASAP. A must visit place for indoor plants. Really enjoyed the experience.

Great place with great selection! Very knowledgeable owners offering high quality products. Can't think of a better place to go for tropical plants.

Brian and Mike are two of the most real people I've met since moving to Kitchener. Their business model is less about money and more about people and plants. The care and love these two put into their plants shows their commitment to continually learning and adapting with the ever-changing knowledge base. What a great place and addition to the community! Thanks for everything!

This was my first time at Gold Leaf … and won’t be the last! Loved the atmosphere the minute I walked in. The variety is unreal and the owners knowledge was beyond incredible.

Hidden gem in KW for sure? Kim

The perfect plant store! The owner provided an excellent recommendation for a house warming gift plant. An added bonus was the right amount of tips and education on plant caretaking and advocacy. Walked out of the store feeling so uplifted and look forward to returning!

The owners are extremely knowledgeable and the variety of botanicals is amazing. It’s a beautiful shop to enter every time.

I was walking down Park Street in the summer when I heard a friendly 'Hello' and within 30 seconds I met Bryan and his love for.sorry passion for plants.

It was truly an honour to meet and see this green sanctuary inside.

Mentioning even if I have a plant at home and don't know how to take care of it or any questions to feel free to ask.

The rewards program is another thing needed to mention as no one does this any more.

I can go on a long rant about how much I learned in my 10 minute chat with Bryan.

Thank you for that friendly hello.

I stopped in to Gold Leaf Botanicals for the first time after learning about this shop on Instagram! Brian was such a delight, friendly, knowledgeable, and genuine. The selection of plants at varying price points was a nice change from some other retailers and the display of the store was like walking into a plant lovers dream!

The shop is stacked floor to ceiling with plants.an amazing variety of common and rare houseplants as well.the owners are super friendly and open people, amazing to talk to, and are super duper helpful to aid you in finding what you need.some prices may seem a bit high compared to what you might find in your big box stores, but the plants here are genuinely under top tier care and you will not need to worry about pests, poor quality items, or misleading instructions when you shop here.overall, i would give 10/5 if possible.thank you guys for your help, i love my pink princess philodendron:)

Beautiful shop run by a beautiful person! It’s clear from the moment you walk in that all the plants are in terrific shape, and cared for properly. The shop owner has lots of passion for the plants and it shows! Helpful recommendations and tips for plant care. This will be my go-to shop moving forward!

Absolute GEM of a place! They owners are so sweet and knowledgeable. I have found plants in there that I haven't seen before!

Awesome local business you have to visit. The owners are so passionate about their work, it was pleasure stopping in and meeting them. I was buying a giftcard and the owners both stopped what they were working on and came out to show me around the shop. They were so helpful and friendly- spending the time recommending things to someone who knows nothing about plants. Amazing customer service, awesome little shop run by awesome people. Make sure you stop in!

There's a reason it's all 5-star reviews. This place is awesome: absolute quality plants and all the care advice that you need to go with it! Drop by and you won't regret it!

Honestly my comfort place! I love the people here and the plant selection (of course). This is definitely my favourite place to buy plants. If you’re ever unsure about a plant, they’re always willing to help!:)

Bryan and Michael's passion for plants is contagious. They know every plants ' name, what they need, how they grow and plants are thriving at their little store. It's like a mini healthy jungle there and I felt like I got VIP tour of it. Even if you are not sure you wanna buy a plant, go there and get yourself a free entertainment special: Comedy, documentary, drama, vougueging, twists and twirls, they got you you are fabulous and sending you lots of love

Come for the plants, stay for the education! This unique little gem of a plant shop is a must-visit for anyone who considers themselves a plant lover.

These guys really know their stuff, and are gracious teachers who are clearly passionate about what they do. On this first visit I got a little monstera, and feel more than prepared to help it thrive after mostly having pothos and snake plants my whole life.

I will 100% be back, and cannot wait to see how their business flourishes.

I popped in yesterday for the first time (meaning to go for quite some time - but life gets in the way). I had a great experience talking to the shop owners about plant care, what they want the shop to be about to the community, as well as general banter. It was a great lunch break:). I will definitely be back to fuel my plant addiction, and for the friendly service. Great shop!

AMAZING first time here today! Felt so welcomed and the space is awesome with a great variety of plants. Is a MUST.

Super little plant shop. Owners have quite a selection of plants, very nicely displayed. We enjoyed talking with both the gentlemen as they were super friendly and helpful.
Just one little thing I would suggest tagging all your product with name and price. Will visit again.

Every plant is gorgeous and the owners are incredibly knowledgable about plants and committed to their customers and this community.
