I was up in New York for work and decided to look for local orchid, shops, and I am so happy. I visited this one. They had a stunning selection of orchids of all kinds as well as tropical plants. The owner was very kind and was a joy to talk to. If you’re in the area, I would definitely recommend coming to this shop.

Excellent selection and amazing assistance offered. The orchids are very well cared for. Healthy root structure. I’ll definitely be going back for more. Thank you ??

Very gorgeous selection and variety of plants. I’m never one to write reviews, or bad ones for that matter, but was very disappointed that over half of the giant greenhouse was roped off and when asked they didn’t give a reason as to why. We were the only ones in there and would have loved to have just walked around. Especially since the worker was following us around anyway. Clearly they don’t want to make a sale. Also disappointing that names and prices are only noted on about a quarter of inventory.

I don’t know WHAT people are talking about, this place has been my mom and I’s go to birthday splurge every year since 2020! I’d go and blow my paycheck all the time if I didn’t live in Brooklyn!I’ve not had an unsuccessful orchid from here. Ever. They always are healthy, stay alive, and my oldest Sharry Baby I bought has 4 stems growing right now. If an orchid has been unsuccessful at reblooming— it’s 100% been because the growing conditions in my home were subpar. I LOVE talking shop about orchids with the owner’s son— he knows EVERYTHING about these plants and has never steered us wrong. From latin names, to culture sheets, to the ORIGINS of a hybrid— he knows it all.For NURSERY grown GRADE A orchids, of course it will be more expensive than a grocery store, but less expensive than your standard nursery (I’m talking those places that charge you $60 for a white moth orchid). I’m shocked that people would be so picky about these plants, especially when this is one of the few places in the area that supplies some rare gems for FAIR pricing. I recommend to everyone I know.

This place is the best!! My partner has been begging me to come and I’m so glad I finally visited. Beautiful selection of orchids and other plants. I got a gorgeous octopus orchid and variegated string of pearls here. The staff are knowledgeable and friendly. Drive all the way in for the store :)

The most diverse selection of orchids I have seen yet in NYC, no even the botanical garden has the varieties this nursery has available and reasonable price. The owner(s) seems to be a collector. Will be visiting this place again!

White Plains Orchid Farm is exactly the place my mom and I have been searching so long for! As soon as we stepped foot in the nursery, we were immediately greeted with a welcoming, warm, peaceful and soul-nurturing vibe. This family run business offers a unique experience with an impressive variety and selection of beautiful and healthy orchids, all reasonably priced. While their collection offers buyers from all levels of experiences, everything they sell is truly radiant and magnificent. Not only was it a nice getaway to see such pretty flowers, the owners were very knowledgeable and kind— providing detailed guidance and recommendations on how to care for each species. They clearly have a passion for what they do and it shows through every plant with its strong roots, fleshy green leaves, and the fragrant scent that hangs in the air as you walk past. We are thrilled to have found such a gem! Looking forward to coming back to buy more enchanting plants and to support such a hospitable business.

Hands-down, the most amazing selection of orchids I’ve ever seen — both in quantity and quality. Whether you’re a beginner or an expert, they’re incredibly knowledgeable about each of the species and the care required to keep your orchids happy and healthy. It’s evident the family that runs this greenhouse really loves what they do and take pride in their work. Truly a gem of White Plains and highly recommend paying them a visit.

Gorgeous flowers and plants of so many varieties I’ve never seen. I’ve had dozens of their orchids now through the years and each lasts several months. Truly impressive.

I purchased 2 orchids last weekend at the Deep Cut Orchid Society show at Dearborn Market. Upon arriving home less than 1/2 hour later, I found that one of them has no roots at all, while the other one has minimal roots and some new roots. When I contacted White plain orchid and requested a replacement for the rootless orchid, Greg replied to me and told me that "These plants are cuttings and will root out given time and proper conditions" and " If it recovers well it should flower out in the fall." After requesting a replacement for the rootless plant again, Greg repeated that "They will survive and recover with proper care." When I purchased these orchids from White Plains Orchids, I expected that I was buying live plants NOT ones that needed to be "recovered". At the same show I purchased orchids from 3 other vendors - all are doing splendidly. Do not get tricked by White Plains Orchids.
