"You dig relaxing in a room full of greenery, so head to Propagation. At this Lower Nob Hill bar, leafy things take over the bright, though somewhat maze-like space. Which means you'll chill on a leather couch beside a giant palm, or post up barside next to a towering euphorbia. At Propagation, plants don’t just exist to look pretty. Many of their excellent, botanical-leaning cocktails roll with the plant theme, like the Thriller Spiller Filler with vodka, lemongrass, strawberries, and citrus." - lani conway, julia chen 1, ricky rodriguez
"If the perfect date involves challenging each other to identify as many plants as possible, head to Propagation. The Lower Nob Hill bar is packed with cacti and leafy greens, and refreshing cocktails that riff on the plant theme, like the Thriller Spiller And Filler. Friendly bartenders and cozy seating options that range from a brown leather couch to two lounge chairs by the window make Propagation a reliable first date spot." - lani conway, ricky rodriguez, julia chen 1
"This plant-themed cocktail bar in Nob Hill has a beautiful interior with plenty of lush plants that hang from the ceiling and line the walls. And despite having just opened in March, it’s already got the feel of a neighborhood bar that’s been around for a while, with friendly bartenders, lively music playing, and a “no wifi” mentality - you won’t see people sitting glued to their phones. Another reason we love them is their rotating list of fruity, plant-inspired cocktails, like the “Plantasia” with mezcal, matcha, wheatgrass, pineapple, and lime, or the “A Million Reasons,” a piña colada with acai and champagne." - julia chen 1, lani conway

They opened in March with a beautiful interior decorated with lush, green plants hanging from the ceiling and lining the walkways, and booths and tables to sit at - or you can chill in their outdoor parklet, too. Despite having just opened, it’s already got the feel of a neighborhood bar that’s been around for a while, with friendly bartenders, fun music playing, and a “no wifi” mentality. Choose from their rotating list of cocktails, like the “Plantasia” with mezcal, matcha, wheatgrass, and pineapple, and lime, or the “A Million Reasons,” a piña colada with acai and champagne." - julia chen 1
"Perhaps you’re meeting up with someone who has a highlight on their Instagram solely dedicated to carefully curated photos of their thriving houseplants. Take them to Propagation, a plant-themed cocktail bar in Nob Hill that’s filled with tons of greenery and comfy couches. Their drinks all have some kind of plant or fruit in the ingredient list, like a piña colada with acai and champagne, or a mezcal cocktail with matcha, all of which are great to sip on while you lie about the lifespan of your succulents." - julia chen 1
