    Wow! This is my first experience with tissue cultured plants. I have to say that I am very impressed. The plant came very quickly, they were packed carefully, with heat pack. They were healthy and I received a very good quantity. The fact that these plants are grown right here in Canada is a no-brainer! The environmental impact is greatly reduced. Which I love. I will post more pics. If you are looking for aquarium plants or supplies, I believe this is your best option. Will be purchasing co2 system from them in the future. Thanks.

    Great experience overall, the plants were delivered quickly and in pristine condition. If you are unsure of how many plants to get just ask them, they gave me a very good estimate for how many I would need.

    The plants were healthy and free of algae as advertised. They started growing as soon as I planted them in my aquarium and I was able to observe significant growth in only a week. Thanks to their website, I was able to look up the specific needs of the plants I purchased and make sure to buy ones that were compatible with my current tank set-up. Overall, I highly recommend! ------ 4 MONTHS EDIT ------------ Here is a picture of my tank roughly 4 months after my first ABC Plants purchase. The plants (every single one of which is an ABC Plants purchase) are growing wonderfully fast and the in-tank CO2 system is simple and easy to install. I'm a customer for life!

    Super fast shipping, wonderfully robust selection of plants. Their website is very helpful for beginners - the site has great information on each plant - and a wide and interesting selection of plants for any experience level. I have ordered from several Canadian suppliers and this is hands down the fastest shipping, best communication, and healthiest quality I have seen. I am so happy to support a truly Canadian venture and delighted with their plants. I will order again! My new favourite supplier!!

    This is a dream come true. I just hope one day their catalogue is expanded to include more plants. I felt like so happy to receive fresh tc plants. No other online retailer can compare to this.

    Excellent products and customer service. I have placed two large orders with them. Their plants are very good quality and are growing healthy. Being TC, they are free of pests. Their CO2 equipment is incredible, super high quality. Definitely worth the investment if you want to have a healthy planted tank. They helped me in every step of the process to select the right plants and equipment based on my tank and needs. Being a very involved customer that spends hours doing research, I definitely recommend ABC.

    Hidden gem! Their t/c is by far the best ive ever gotten. The tropica of canda! Great selection, healthy plants and very affordable. They are very knowledgeable all around. Always a pleasure doing business.

    Excellent! I purchased plants from ABC Plants, I was impressed with the quality and quantity of the plants. Very easy to divide them and easy to plant them. The plants came very nicely packed. ABC are so far one of the best retailers of aquatic plants. Thank you and I will buy again!

    Ordered a bunch of 1-2-3 Grow plants online and received excellent customer service. I ordered before Christmas and Canada Post took a week to deliver (when it's typically 1 day), but Nikki arranged a brand new shipment after the holiday rush died down and the plants arrived in excellent condition. I would definitely recommend and buy from them again :)

    Just received my first order of plants and couldn't be happier. I had an impossible time finding Crimson King (eriocaulon quinquangulare) and ABC Plants had it so I thought I'd try them out. The plants arrived within 5 days (I live in Ontario) and appear very health. The portion size is huge and I'm really looking forward to seeing them settle into my tank. I highly recommend ABC Plant and will definitely be ordering from them again.

    Plants were delivered by person due to postal delays in Montreal, Thank you. Great quality, and I swear grew an inch overnight. Much more than I needed but I saved the rest for another project. Highly recommend.

    ABC plants is the best. Plants delivered in awesome condition despite a cold snap and country wide delivery issues in general. Sent Monday as promised...received Tuesday. Quality of plants are better than aquarium shops in general. Waiting for growth from the start is simple and rewarding. I won't order from any other source!!

    A great shopping experience all around. Website was easy to navigate and there’s just about every aquatic plant to had. My order arrived packaged to perfection with every detail covered. I commend the staff on this and it shows they care about theirs customers orders from start to finish. They will even provide discounts for future purchases in their emails too once you join up. If I had to dock a point with the cultured plants they sell , mine were quite small in size. I expected a bit more growth. All in all I look forward to my next purchase.

    I have to say my experience was very good! Made my order online and it was ready to pick up the same day. Even if the store was closed you can still pick up your order in a huge range of time. What i loved the most was that i got an extra plant that i did not order but was dying and they gave it to me to try and save it instead of throwing it away. Very very satisfied!

    Really good products and lots of healthy plants in each cup (over 50 dwarf sagittaria (sagittaria subulata) in one tiny cup) they all grow really well.

    Despite sitting on the back of a Canada Post truck for ten days (Covid delays), the plants I ordered arrived healthy.

    Ordered 12 cups of T/C plants (Monte Carlo & Dwarf hairgrass). Plants arrived quickly from Quebec to BC!! All plants were extremely healthy, best T/C I’ve purchased to date!! Highly recommend their products.

    Awesome selection!! Plants arrived insanely fast and all were healthy. It's also very nice to have a "no pest" guarantee. Customer service was top-notch as well! If I need more plants, ABC will be the only place I order from because the plants are very high-quality.

    Website is informative, easy navigation to order, expedited shipping and my order included a gifted rescue plant that is going to be a perfect edition to my aquarium. The plants did get dislodged from the jelly so they were slightly wilted but I think that was a mail issue. Very happy with everything! I can't wait to see them grow. Thanks again

    ABC was absolutely amazing when it came to my order! They were super helpful as I missed the note saying they ship on mondays and even with the majority of the team out sick, they were incredibly helpful. We got an unexpected snow storm the night before my plants were to be delivered and I thought FOR SURE they’d be dead, but they showed up beyond healthy! Absolutely in love with my new mosses, thank you so much ABC for the plants and help!

    (Translated by Google) Plants ordered and received in 2 days. Pack isolated because of the cold. Exemplary packaging and high quality plants. Thanks for the little extra 😉 (Original) Plantes commandées et reçues en 2 jours. Paquet isolé à cause du froid. Emballage exemplaire et plantes de grandes qualité. Merci pour le petit extra 😉

  • 5/5 Catherine R. 2 years ago on Google
    The best tissue culture plants available in Canada, period. I've never seen TC plants adapting and starting to thrive as fast and as beautifully as these. I also use their CO2ONE system and I absolutely adore this hassle-free CO2 regulator. I wouldn't want to use any other. Always an impeccable service, incredible support, fast shipping and an ever growing collection of available plants and products. If I could give them a thousand stars I would.

    (Translated by Google) What a beautiful quality of plants! They are very colorful and tasty. They started to make bubbles as soon as they were installed on wood and rocks (Monte-Carlo) Two days later, they started to grow. I am very happy! (Original) Quelle belle qualité de plantes! Elles sont biens colorées et biens gorgées Elles ont commencées à faire des bulles dès leur installation sur le bois et les roches (Monte-Carlo) Deux jours après, elles ont commencées en pousser. Je suis bien content!

    Great service! Shipping was quick and efficient. The plants were in excellent shape and easy to divide and plant. Loved the small attention of adding an older cup for free with the inscription "Save me" on it, this made the freebie even more special. Will definitely order again in the future, and of course recommend the place to anyone looking for quality plants and service. All I could hope for would be additional plant care products, more particularly fertilizers, so I could buy everything related to planta from a single source while being confident of the quality. Thanks a lot!

    I recently ordered for the first time with ABC Plants. Their website was easy to use to order from. I purchased plants and a co2 kit. Their info on their site gave me the jump to finally move to co2, which my plants are loving! Wish I did it long ago. The order came very quick. Being a huge Tropica plant fan, I was pleasantly surprised at the quality of ABC Plants. The plants were SUPER healthy. I will definitely be making future purchases from ABC Plants.

    I have had a great experience with ABC. They took the time to answer my questions and help me get setup with the right selection of plants. Their site is also very helpful for newer hobbyist make a solid selection that will thrive in their setup. The plants I got were healthy, beautiful, free of pests and well packaged. They are growing rapidly and the look of my aquarium is simply stunning. I highly recommend ABC for your plant needs.

    The plants came quickly and were in great shape when I recieved them. They are convenient to separate and spread around the tank and since having them for about a week I can already see them growing! The goo they are packed in is very easily caught in a net :)

  • 5/5 BobbiM14 1 year ago on Google
    Plants arrived safely! It is a shock to see all of them in tiny pots (not just the ground covers) but I’m hoping to have good success with all of them. So much nicer than worrying about snails, etc coming into my tank. Thanks ABC!

  • 5/5 Terri P. 3 years ago on Google
    Ordered 4 different types of plants, they got really delayed in shipment and arrived over a week after when they were originally supposed to. The plants were totally fine! I'm super impressed with how many little plants fit in the cups and how nice they look! If I need more plants I'll definitely order again, although those four cups have planted my 75 gallon!

  • 5/5 MTL C. 1 year ago on Google
    Best TC Plants I have purchased to date. Other tissue culture plants took quite a while to acclimate, ABC plants started growing almost immediately! At first I was searching for easy aquarium plant, which they have a huge selection of, but after doing some research, I bought the Sodastream CO2 system. Can't recommend it highly enough! Setting it up was easier than I could have imagined and the effect on plant health is amazing. I'll be starting another tank in October and will be looking here first!

  • 5/5 B T. 1 year ago on Google
    Great service and very helpful! I reached out with some questions on the co2 setup and they were quick to reply and helped me with my purchase. Products shipped out in 24hrs and I had the package delivered, in great condition a day later! Plant quality was excellent and they threw in some free gifts as well!! Will 100% order from ABC Plants again!

  • 5/5 Jake 1 year ago on Google
    Fantastic customer service and it’s great to have high quality plants grown in Canada. Some plants in my order transitions to growing submerged or emersed better than others but all plants were very healthy when they arrived. Will be ordering again

  • 5/5 Mike P. 2 years ago on Google
    The pickup was really easy, the plants were beautiful and healthy. They've also adapted to my tank really quickly! Only planted them a couple of days ago and the AR, crypts and ludwigia are already showing growth.

  • 5/5 Trish 2 years ago on Google
    My first order from ABC Plants arrived on time and all 4 varieties are growing well. The Pistia stratiotes (Dwarf water lettuce) is a hit with my fish and shrimps, both for the biofilm coating its dangling roots and the natural shade they offer the Tetras. I was a bit surprised at the small size of the Cryptocoryne wendtii 'red', thogh they seem to have rooted and I am hoping for good growth. I called in with a question and got friendly, useful advice.

    This was my second order but the first time it was delivered to my house. I was hesitant but gave it a shot! I was pleasantly surprised when I received my package. Everything was neatly packed and properly identified. Plus, they gave me 2 "rescue me" plants for free. I appreciate the initiative of finding ways to avoid wasting products. Overall, the plants look good and it took 5-6 business days to receive. Thank you abcplants!

  • 5/5 Erin P. 2 years ago on Google
    Beautiful, healthy and generous amount of plants were sent and well received. There was even a little surprise included, special thank you for that. ;) Packaging was perfect and every plant was well labeled. I have ordered elsewhere and received only clippings of plants… ABC sent plants with complete root systems and no snails 🐌. The website is also very straightforward and simple to order from. Thank you so much, I will be ordering again.

  • 5/5 Kyle G. 2 years ago on Google
    The best customer service i have never experienced in my life, instead of let you do your own research online, these guys really spend time on explain what's going on, why this happened, give out a conclusion and even a solving solution. I am using their plants and CO2 kit for my first High tech aquarium, the plants grows right after the planting in the first day.

    Really happy I found this Montreal-based seller online -- living locally, my order was delivered promptly, and I appreciated the recyclable + tidy packaging and personal touches. The plants all look to be superior quality, and the prices were very reasonable.

  • 5/5 Christopher C. 3 years ago on Google
    Found this Canadian company online after having such a difficult time finding the plants I wanted in regular brick and mortar aquarium shops. They have a wide selection of plants, the website is easy to navigate, got the plants I ordered in a timely manner and they were delivered in good condition. Never thought of ordering plants online but for aquarium plants the model works and I would definitely do it again.

  • 5/5 Kathleen R. 3 years ago on Google
    great customer service and great product. all my products ($100+) arrived safe and sound all the way in Edmonton AB from Quebec. Love the products that were sent and the information on the website was fantastic. I wish I had taken more pictures to add to this review

  • 5/5 Tegan M. 3 years ago on Google
    Great store overall!! Switched shipping for me at no extra cost to have plants arrive on time and safely with no delays. Communicated well and plants seem overall healthy on arrival. Also offer instructions on their site for planting and included a hand written note which was nice😊

  • 5/5 Sarah A. 3 years ago on Google
    I had a really great experience ordering from ABC plants for the first time. All the plants arrived quickly and in excellent condition despite it being -10 C. The quantity per cup was also much greater than I expected so you do get your moneys worth! I will definitely be ordering again if I set up a new tank
