"This is plant heaven. You can spend hours roaming the well-organized greenhouses mulling over what tropical houseplants and cacti treasures to bring home. The staff is extremely helpful to lead you to the right choices or help you problem-solve with your existing plants. You can even have them pot your new ones, so you don't even have to do any work if you don't want to!" - Factory North

I love this place and have always gotten good results with their starts. I however read reviews noting their plants had bugs. Knowing this I inspected mine upon purchase and kept an eye on them/away from others. I noticed some small bugs on my cute puffball and am now able to treat it and keep it thriving. Thankful for that heads up in other reviews. Shout out to the really nice staff and awesome selection of pots.

I made a call. they were friendly and helpful and were the only ones who had what I was looking for. They even put it on hold for me to show up the next day. Very good Service! thank you.

Historically have stocked named African Violets, named orchids (oncidiums, cataleyas, hybrids, etc), named nepenthes, and more. Wonderful selection for the discerning collector. They have also recently added clear pots (to help watch for root development or rot). Staple nursery of the PDX metro area.

As soon as I walked through the gate I smiled! I love a good nursery. They had everything I was looking for probably. I was too shy to ask for directions to the basil. Thanks to the nice associate with the septum piercing that pointed me to the pots!

My new favorite nursery. Huge space with incredibly varied selection that is very well kept. Friendly and very helpful staff. It's fun to just wander and take everything in. Really great clearance selection as well, can find some great treasures for a steal. I came in to look at the succulents and cactus and was impressed by the wide selection and variety.

I recommend Portland Nursery. The staff are knowledgeable. The nursery has a great selection of plants specific to do well in the area. The price is on the higher side, but the quality of the plants makes up for that.

This place advertises on Oregon public broadcasting. Their support of public radio has been constant over the years and it has made me feel good about the nursery itself. There are two elements that make Portland nursery outstanding in its class. The first is the sheer breadth of what is available, and how beautifully it is arranged in the site. It is like a botanical garden, with a sense of profusion and also of the seasons. If you wanted to rewrite the novel "Harriet the spy", you would have it take place at Portland nursery. There's so much beautiful sculpture included in all the displays that it really is a fantastic journey just to walk through it all. In addition, the service is outstanding and knowledgeable. There are lots of people who are a bit socially awkward yet deeply knowledgeable about botany, and everything necessary for you to understand what you were buying and why. Portland nursery also stands by everything it sells you. If you properly plant what they sell you and it dies, you can get a full refund. Now I use a garden whisperer so I'm less afraid of killing things but I'm still glad about this policy and hold onto the receipt.

I really love this nursery as I grew up near here, and remember when it was Jeibmann's Greenhouse. (I also played on Jeibmann's little league baseball team back in the early 80'). So it's a bit sentimental. They have really done a job job with fixing that place up! The inside has some nice stone work instead of walking on the pea gravel. They have the best variety! The only thing is you will be paying top dollar, so don't come broke. Thought I would buy a banana plant this spring, when no one had them. They had one left. I paid $149 for it, and I was even wondering if it was gonna make it. A month later they had a nicer one at Home Depot for $37.00! Like I said, I bought when no one had them. Everyone there has been really friendly, and I love their selection of pots for my indoor potted plants.

One of the best! I get lost in here for hours looking at all the different plants. Amazing selection of indoor and outdoor plants.

I love this nursery because of their selection and expertise but today my advocacy for the brand grew even more. In a conversation with "Libby" I asked why the Red Rooster grass plants I bought have died and showed her a picture. Her response was to bring them in and they'd be happy to exchange them for new ones. I did so later in the day and am SO thankful for her and their customer service. Thank you! I'm now even a bigger fan!

Really nice spot, with lots of parking. There is tons and tons of plants, all throughout the store. All of the employees are super helpful, always asking if there's anything that you need help with or had questions about anything. Prices are ok, we went when they had a 30% sale on houseplants, so that definitely helped the price. A wide arrangement of pots as well, but they seem pretty overpriced. Perhaps I just don't know how much pots usually run for, I mean how many times in a year do you actually have to buy a new pots. On a whole, definitely recommend this spot. A little pricey, but definitely worth it.

The Division Street location of Portland nursery is really good. The only things that keep it from getting five stars are its comparatively smaller size than the Stark Street location, its smaller "main" parking lot, and the gravel overflow lot making it really perilous to push your wagons or carts across due to the uneven level and tendency to shake the daylights out of the plants on said wagons or carts. The staff is really friendly, the selection is great, the plants all appear to be in perfect health. Pricing on some items seems really high, while others seem really low. Portland Nursery is definitely worth a visit.

Very diverse selection of plants, seeds, media, and equipment. There is no fungi growing product though, which is definitely a shame.

This nursery has a good selection of local plants and interesting houseplants. However, orchids are not their forte. I was looking for orchids and decided to go to Portland Nursery because I know they have a good selection of plants. There were hardly any orchids which is fine but one of the ones I bought had to have 99% of it's roots cut due to root rot and is now in my little ICU. The other came with a fungus of some type and root rot. I don't blame them for not having many orchids. But, I trusted Portland Nursery to have good quality plants. I am a beginner with orchids and didn't inspect them like I should've. That's on me but I really did trust them to be healthy. Also, the bouquet I bought from them had thorns, was very expensive, and did not last more than a few days.

This is a pricy nursery but it has a great selection you don't find anywhere. Their native section is actually good sized. Their plants are always in good condition. Their tree selection is great and carry columnar apples that are hard to find. Itsa relaxing place you can get lost for a couple of hours immersed in plants.

Awesome selection, knowledgeable staff and a bit spendy. Love walking through the nursery. They have a large native section.

Second visit to Portland Nursery (first to this location) during the pandemic. Got there about 10 minutes before opening, waited on the street for the parking lot chains to be dropped. Employees are all masked - well, almost all. Saw one sans mask. Thought it was odd considering they have many signs telling patrons that they need to be masked to enter. Regardless, this establishment is incredibly well-organized and staffed. Staff know their stuff well, I'd asked for a somewhat obscure item and was directed right to it. Not surprised to see several patrons here. Last visit (other location), we were about 15th in line at opening. Popular business, great reputation. We'll be back. We need starts, ya know...

Great covered nursery! Each section is divided by light category which is super handy for beginners. Good variety of plants with both small and big pot options.

Woooow this nursery is amazing! They have a huge variegated monstera climbing in the entry way of the indoor plants section, and it's to die for. Too bad they didn't have any for sale. This nursery is seriously amazing, like, it's HUGE HUGE. I was impressed with the pure volume amount of plants they had here. For indoor plants there was orchids, philodendrons ( brazil, neon, moonlight, red congo), a whole section of ferns, lots of bird of paradise and a great selection of outdoor plants. I was so bummed they were out of angel wing begonias when I came though, I'll try again next week!

Love this local nursery! My wife and I have been coming here for years. This is the second location with the other being off of Stark in SE Portland. There is a parking lot in the front and back of the store. This nursery is open year round. The best time to visit is in the spring when they start bringing in all of the plants. The place is well maintained and the workers are knowledgeable about plants and gardening. There is an abundance of plants, shrubs, herbs, house plants, flowers, pots and other gardening needs. As far as things for the garden and plants this would be your one stop shopping place. They are a specialty nursery that sells things like bonsai, Epiphyllums, bamboo and other plants you will not find in a Walmart or Home Depot. The price is a bit on the higher side, but you do get quality plants and products. We do not mind paying a little bit more to support a local business. There is also an information counter where you can come and ask about gardening and plant questions. We really appreciate the collection of rare, hard to find items and also the assortment of plant pots and other pottery.

Wow! Everyone that I encountered today at Portland Nursery was amazing. Helpful, sweet, and kind! I was kind of blown away to overhear a customer being so extra rude to a staff member. I felt terrible. It's not an easy time to be in retail. Come on folks be nice. The cashier today that helped me (Jess) was so helpful and gave me so many great tips and advice, and so did the fella in the shade annual and house plant section. I was so impressed with how over the top helpful, kind and informative the staff is here! I hope they are paid well!!

Awesome service. They basically designed my yard. I couldn't believe how much time they spent with me. saved me time and money hiring a landscaper. Also, they were significantly cheaper on plant prices than Seven Dees which is closer and more convenient for me to go given where I live. I highly recommend these guys for their selection, prices, and expertise.

If you have an afternoon to browse and shop, and you're an avid or dabbling gardener, this is an amazing place. I spent about 3 hours here in a delicious sort of slow exploration of every section of this wonderful gardening showplace. It is large, and packed with multiple specimens of most plants, from shrubs and climbers to inside light lovers and bonsai. Has fun small pots and seriously large beautiful ones, ceramic saucers to fit most planters, garden art, tools, trellises, gloves, watering cans, fairy garden pieces, things for children, and so many beautiful plants. Someone courteously stepped up to help whenever I needed it, with information and directions to the part of the store where something I wanted to look at would be, and information about the plants I was considering. The other customers were happy and engaging, too: a sure sign of green satisfaction! I found several new (to me) varieties of lilacs, as well as columbine, lobelia, mini daffodils, rock garden specimens, climbing roses, and several more I couldn't resist trying. No question seemed "too small" to the staff, and they certainly "rose" to the task of answering mine! I hadn't been to the store in more than 10 years. But now that I've rediscovered it, there's something to do in Portland that doesn't feel tourist-y and gives me another reason to enjoy my "necessary" trips there. I recommend the experience.

I am so in enthralled with this place, I look forward to going there every time. There's been every kind of plant on my shopping list and more to tempt me. The staff are consistently knowledgeable and professional. Just a stroll through the place lightens my heart because of all the beautiful plants. It's well organized and so easy to find what I need. Staff is always available to answer my questions.

One of Portland's premier in town nurseries. Everything for the suburban or rural gardener. A bit spendy. Off street parking. Very easy to get to. Lots of everything.

I get attached to things quickly, like plants in this case. I'm not a fan of cut flowers, I always request actual plants instead, ones that don't die and continue to flourish. Probably another reason why I get attached, as they each represent a gift or special time. I always ask for them from the Portland Nursery, as I know there won't be issues with bugs, root rot and poor care. We've spent near a grand in plants here over the last year alone, let's just say our home has clean air. Every single plant has been wonderful and without issues, until a few months ago I realized that one of them had a bug issue. They weren't harmful to the plant and wouldn't spread but it wasn't something that I wanted in my home. However, as initially stated, I get attached and wanted to make it work. It was part of my belated Mother's Day plant haul, so I didn't want to give up hope right away. I did what I could to naturally get rid of them and crossed my fingers. I wrote the Portland Nursery here on yelp with photos and Sara, at the Division location, wrote back with complete understanding and a few options for me to choose from so that they could fix the issue. Fast forward to now, a couple months have passed and my issue wasn't getting better. I was finally ready to give up and have the plants replaced. Sara had explained that their tropical plants come from a seller in Florida and that on a rare occasion, some might come back with a bug or two and that they are more than happy to replace, re-pot or issue a store credit. It's a potential issue that can happen at any nursery and pretty rare. Only one of our other tropical plants from the same day plant haul were effected, we bought about 6 and 3 other regular house plants. So then it came time for me to load the otherwise healthy but buggy plants into my car. All I pictured was me trying to balance a 2.5 year old, diaper bag, purse, keys, and two large plants. None of these scenes played out well in my mind. That's when I came up with the brilliant plan of pre-loading the plants the night before, so I could take them in the next morning. My brilliant plan would have been fine if they weren't tropical plants that needed to be 60 degrees or warmer and if It wasn't 29 degrees that night. I opened my car door the next morning absolutely mortified, as all the leaves turned dark green with spots and felt thin. I flash froze my plants. I took them back inside, completely sheepish about taking them back to the nursery in their ruined shape. I called in and asked for George (Sara had told me to ask for him at the Division location) and he already knew me by name and was incredibly understanding and helpful. Said that it wasn't a problem and that I'd still be taken care of. He said his staff had been told to take care of me and that I was welcome to come in when ever convenient. I arrived at the nursery with my tail tucked and Bebhinn overheard me talking to a sales rep, she walked over and said, "Hello! Yes, we knew you'd be coming in some time this week. I will help you swap your plants out." Not only did she help me find the plants I had and let me pick out the one that I wanted, she also gave me tips on repotting a plant that was growing out of its pot and watering tips on another. From start to finish on a plant situation that was less than ideal for both parties involved, it was handled with patience, understanding and the best customer service possible. I couldn't be happier. I was a loyal customer before but now even more so. We'll continue buying all of our plants from here and advise our friends to as well. Some things are out of your control and situations like these happen, it took me a couple of months myself to even notice the bugs. The way that the staff here handled what they did have control of, post issue awareness, was excellent. Thank you again for the A+++ customer service to Sara, George and Bebhinn.

I'm new to the 'plant world.' I was hoping to get some plants to spruce up my new home. I had to go out of my way to find someone here to ask questions of. They didn't seem to know much about the plants I was interested in, 'umm, yeah, I guess those should work.' When I further inquired as to how to take care of them, I didn't get much of a response. I went about googling things and looking around.... everyone seemed really 'busy' with their jobs but unable to help me. So despite the hour drive, hoping to get local plants and support local, I headed back home.

We were there today & this is where we will come next year ! I'm impressed with what they have for plant starters. The nursery associates were friendly and knowledgeable. There is a mask requirement to enter and social distancing is maintained consistently. Thanks for making our day !

What's NOT to love about this place. They carry everything and LOVE to help you be happy. I found the bamboo I was looking for. This location is way less crowded and tons of parking. Nice selection of Bonsai plants to choose from. My motto is, buy a small plant and pray for patience They also carry great fertilizers ( organic) I love this place...all locations. A well deserved 5 stars from me..what they do, they do very very well.

Kate C.

Yelp
Nice selection and aesthetically pleasing shop, but the customer service is terrible. It was like pulling teeth to get someone to help me, and after asking four different people very basic questions, and having to chase each one of them down each time, I finally gave up and used my phone to find a plant that wouldn't poison my cats. Their plants are also 2x more expensive than what other local nurseries and shops have. I want to love this place but... yikes.

Julia D.

Yelp
I have a love, love/ hate relationship with Portland Nursery. I love to go, and I love to walk around, but it's so overpriced... I don't say that because it's simply expensive, but because you can get the same plants and products for less elsewhere. My boyfriend brought me there for our anniversary a few weeks ago. He told me to go nuts/ get whatever I want. I ended up picking out a big Philo Red Congo that clearly had damage and serious lime scale on its foliage. I figured I'd bring it home, trim the damaged leaves and clean the lime scale. Fine. But it became clear really quickly once we were home that this plant had a SERIOUS fungus gnat infestation that sort of exploded into my apartment. I treated the soil and dealt with the gnats, but a week into having the plant, it then showed clear signs of spider mites. Like... big, thick webs around the bases of the stalks. It's frustrating given we spent almost $60 on this plant... I don't know their return policy, and I felt like I should have just taken a harder look in-store before committing. But for their prices, it would be nice to feel sort of secure in that you're bringing home a healthy plant.

I called in looking for some AG lime, after having a horrible experience calling their Stark st store. The female worker I talked to took her time to listen to the difference between "DOlOMITE LIME" and the "AG lime" I was looking for. They only had calcium carbonate in the pearl form, which wouldn't work for me, but I greatly appreciated her taking the time to listen and look at what they carried.

This is our go to place for our organic garden we put in every year. They've got an incredible section for that and the plants always look hearty, happy and green. Speaking of sections, their signage and organization is very easy to navigate while you roam through the area seeking out your huckleberry. You can also find some of the staff running amuck with their phones in hand, dashing off to help you find your green dream. Not only do they sell plants but they have an incredible selection of garden decor as well, such as unusual water fountains, bird baths, wind chimes to statues of T-Rex and even, a large metal moose sculpture! See pic if you don't believe me!

Comforts of the East: The Portland Nursery is like a sprawling hidden garden, built for meandering and quiet contemplation, water running somewhere, staff members who may or may not be growing their own special plants in the shed out back. Peace, dude. And much love. But THEN! Conveniences of the West: You get to grab all those the trees and chimes and Buddha statues and load them into your Radio Flyer to take home. Like Supermarket Sweep! Overriding urge to consume? Satisfied.

Great selection of plants and trees but some terrible customer service. While some employees were friendly and helpful a few were just the opposite. To start, the way some employees were handling their social distancing policies was just rude and obnoxious. Acting militant and being obviously upset by the simplest things. I saw an employee get upset when a woman walked within a couple feet of him, unnecessary. The speech we were given upon entering the place was hasty and condescending, sounding like a grade school teacher tired of teaching children. The guy that checked us out rudely told us to stop pushing our cart forward and wait where we were, but there was no line and nobody in front of us, it made absolutely no sense. The militant command literally served no purpose. Another problem we had was that my wife asked several employees questions about planting what was in our cart, 2 of the 4 employees she asked didn't have a clue about the most basic gardening knowledge. One of them actually told her to ask someone else because he said he didn't know. I can assure you it was a very simple question. I just don't get it, who's doing the hiring and managing there? This is a review update... went back after a cooling off period and I have to say, employees were even worse than the first time around. Just terrible. My wife and I have decided we will not be returning here under any circumstances. We actually despise this place at this point. What a shame!

I love the Portland Nursery. I can find whatever my novice green thumb needs. Plants galore, gardening tools and the requisite chicken poop if your not lucky enough to have your own chickens. The staff is super knowledgeable even when I ask the silliest questions which there are always a few. I was having some greenery jonesing in December so I went to the nursery three times and might go a forth. I also went to a different nursery and quickly went back to Portland Nursery. It's nice just walking around there. I discovered they have one greenhouse filled with winter plants and beautiful wreaths. (This was at the Stark location) A joy!

Tricia O.

Yelp
Lots going on here! Lots to choose from! You could spend a lot of time here looking for the right plants. I still have lots to learn about what grows here vs what belongs naturally in this area. However, don't plan for someone to come ask you if you need something, you must go out of your way to stop them from the task they are doing (standing near them and saying excuse me, doesn't work). You must corner them and make them think you refuse to leave until answered!! I'm totally serious here! After spending lots of time here and getting no questions answered, I bought a pair of gloves to weed with and we went elsewhere.

Great place! The plants there are well taken care of! Officially my favorite local plant nursery now. I can spend hours here. They are currently building a beautiful new water fountain as well. The staff are very friendly and helpful!

I loved the social distancing rules they had set in place. Everything felt well thought out and designed to give both customers and employees the safest experience. really blows my mind that some people find it too much....but I suppose complainers would be the type of people to hide a zombie bite in that kinda pandemic. Also the plants were good.

I recently purchased a Monstera that turned out to be infested with thrips. I am still in the process of treating the plant over a month later. I also purchased a String of Pearls around the same time and it rotted in it's pot within two weeks even though it was hanging in a bright space and I hadn't watered it once since purchasing. The prices are too expensive for this poor quality and I will not be back.

Trevor B.

Yelp
I have to update my already 5 star review simply to reiterate that Portland Nursery (both the Division and Stark locations) are by far my favorite nurseries in the Portland area. I would give more than 5 stars if this was an option! I have become somewhat of a regular and will stop by at least twice a month and am never disappointed by the selection of plants and the helpful and friendly staff members. It makes for such a good experience that is hard to find at some of the smaller plant shops in the area. I will continue to recommend Portland Nursery to anyone with any plant interest as it never disappoints! Some of the larger plants can be a bit pricey but for the size and quality of the plants they carry, I've personally spent more than I ever thought I would be willing to spend on a single plant on more than one occasion and I have absolutely no regrets. Looking forward to my next visit!

This is one of the BEST and biggest nurseries I have ever been to. The Portland Nursery on Division is right off the I-205 which makes it really easy to get to. The only problem is that the place is *huge*. Tips. I had to do 2-3 passes to see everything. I walked all over, and then took a break and had a power bar to eat. After all that I grabbed one of their kid wagons and only then I could make a decision. Even on a busy Sunday afternoon? There was PLENTY of room for scores of customers to move about and rarely be in the same section as other people. I am not even sure how they did that except that the place is simply huge. This is a serious plus after yesterday when I experienced another nursery clogged with customers blocking aisles or who were mad at the world. Enough already. But, I digress. The 'Portland Nursery' SE Division St., Portland, OR location has: a solid shade section, a shade plants for wet soil section, filtered light sections, sun sections, ground cover, trees, shrubs, vegetables, roses, berries, a NW native plant section, hanging potted plants, bamboo, a separate section for Japanese Maple type trees, a tropical wet greenhouse including lots of pond plants, a large bonsai selection, a large cactus and succulents section with *very* unusual finds! Oh -- and houseplants with many varieties I had never seen before. Vining plants, annuals, perennials, lots of ferns many which must be 8-10 feet tall? It goes on and on. Plus.... 50% off plant tables in several sections, many tools, and 600 different seed packets in JUST the one photo I took of the seeds....with many out of range.....so, 1000+ different seed packets? They have awesome pots for those like me who are tired of the same old thing, or need a certain shaped pot to fit a certain place. They had a very large shed with wood planter boxes, wood benches and a whole variety of stakes. They have "rain chains", gifts, and I guess they even have some classes as mentioned on their website portlandnursery.com? Oh, one thing I noticed is that they have awesome, classic, unusual statues. Not the stuff you see in *everyones* yard -- but really, really nice stuff. I think the prices were normal even though others said they thought it was expensive. Maybe those others get plants from large local chains - don't know. The plants were very healthy. The staff were friendly and inserted comments about plants I was eyeing on their own. The person at the front register (there are two registers?) seemed genuinely happy to say hello. I talked to a fellow customer who said he thought the other location on Stark was bigger, but others have said Division was bigger. In either event, this one was easy to get to....and had everything I needed. On another day I will definitely check out the Stark store. Maybe tomorrow. : ) All other nurseries pale compared to this wonderful find. Friendly people, no games....what more could I want? Gardening should be an enjoyable experience, and that is exactly what this was at the Portland Nursery on Division. A+++++++++

I visit the Division spot much less than the Stark spot. The Division spot is a much better location than Stark for Japanese or Chinese Garden plants. They specialize in water gardens and tropicals - need it? Go here!

Great selection of plants to choose from or you can get a gift card for a friend if you're not sure what to get them! The staff was pretty friendly and helpful and their selection is huge. It's a really fun store to just mosey around and take your time; It's hard to want to leave this beautiful place!

Great staff! I love shopping here because they have very healthy plants. The employees are so knowledgeable and take time answering all my questions like how to trim a plant properly. They also have delivery, which saved me several trips since I bought eight trees and only two trees could fit in my car at a time. I highly recommend Portland Nursery.

Really great selection, organized fairly well. Friendly staff, in fact I've called them just to get advice on a plant in my garden that I was having issues with and the gal I spoke with answered all my questions and I didn't ever feel like she was busy or trying to rush me off the phone. Another time I called to see if they had a more unique plant that I was searching for, and the nice lady I spoke with put one on hold for me as they only had two. So A+ for service thus far. I would say they're comparatively priced with the other two large nurseries I frequent (Al's and Tony's). Similar selection size, though I haven't been enough times to get a true gauge of their year round offerings. I've only really been in the spring, and I know they get new stock in frequently as the plants come into their season. All their stock looked healthy and well cared for as well. I don't recall seeing any 'sad' plants. All clearly labeled too. And the clean and well maintained fountains throughout add a nice level of ambiance to your browsing. I haven't delved into their non-living stock much yet, it looks amazing and too tempting for my pocket book to handle. They had some REALLY cute yard decor things. I really can't look too closely though, my will power for resisting that stuff is nil. This place is a little bit further of a drive for me, so I haven't been very many times, but I feel like I want to just make the trip so I can get lost for a couple hours, I look forward to going back.

This place is fantastic! I love the huge selection of houseplants. They are the healthiest nursery plants I have seen around Portland. The people are mostly pretty helpful if you go approach them. Otherwise, you are usually left alone (which I like). The reason for four stars is because Portland Nursery is not very accessible. They have some paved sections, but the majority of flooring is gravel which is not good for some wheelchairs and rollators. I have to leave my walker in the car and just hope for the best because the gravel will damage the frame and tires. If you are able-bodied and fully mobile though, this place is definitely for you!
