Overall, the bouquet was lovely. The flowers were fresh and the design was nice. The only thing is that it was smaller than I thought.

Hilary bought some vintage planters I was selling. A very fun person, and a beautiful business!

Went in with my daughter and she picked out every stem herself the staff were super sweet and patient with her

We ordered six floral arrangements from Emerald Petals for a private event and were so happy with how they turned out. Hilary worked with our budget and came up with some truly stunning arrangements that took our event to the next level. I would not hesitate to order from Emerald Petals again. read more

My pet of 17 years passed this Tuesday and my friend sent me flowers from Emerald and she made it black and white (his colors) and one pink rose. I cried immediately at how beautiful they were. Just so stunning. Thank you for making me smile! read more

Wonderful, perfect, wedding flowers with excellent customer service. Hilary created beautiful bouquets for me and my bridesmaids with little direction from me since I didn't really know what I wanted - but she created the perfect bouquet for me, with vague (and not very helpful instructions) on my part. She created flower pieces to decorate the arch we were getting married under, and provided ties for us to easily attach the flowers to the arch ourselves. All of our corsages and boutonnieres looked perfect, and were labeled accordingly so that we could easily pass them out to everyone who needed one. Her pricing was very reasonable, and I feel I got way more than my money's worth in fresh, gorgeous, perfectly arranged flowers. All the flowers were neatly organized when we picked them up (bouts and corsages in a separate box to be refrigerated until wedding time, etc.) Hilary was a dream to work with, and I'd recommend her to anyone looking for some beautiful wedding flowers or flowers for another occasion. Hilary's attention to detail truly helped simplify our big day, and I am very grateful for that. read more

Emerald Petals - Boutinerres & corsages for my wedding - created by Emerald Petals, and all appropriately labeled - Florists Near Me

I feel the need to say that 1) I coukd've contacted Hilary about my experience before posting the review. I'm sorry I didn't. 2) Hilary contacted me and said that she could've fixed things on the day off if I had said anything. (I didn't see the flowers myself until the ceremony) She was really sorry about the disconnect and asked if she coukd do anything now. I think that she's a wonderful person. (I think I said that before) so I'd give her another chance. I'd just make sure with lots of pictures and questions that we're in the same page. read more

I didn't think I was going to be so picky about my wedding day florals, but, I ended up caring more than I thought I was going to and am so glad I chose an artist like Hilary to execute my vision of cascading, wild, loose arrangements in a very specific color palette. It was easy to work with Hilary from start to finish, despite planning a Portland wedding from Austin. She did a mockup arrangement and emailed it to me, and I was able to provide her with feedback which she incorporated impeccably. She created truly beautiful bouquets, boutonnieres, hanging arrangements, and centerpieces for our big day, came out to the venue to arrange it all, and was very very reasonable in her pricing. My mom also had this to say but is still probably a few years away from getting Yelp reviews figured out: "I just want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for the FABULOUS job you did on the flowers for Jess and Matt's wedding. They were absolutely perfect for the occasion and matched Jessica's vision of color, organic arrangements and beautiful blooms. It is quite the gift and eye you have. You helped make the day be even more beautiful than it was! People who were offered the arrangements at the end of the evening were thrilled." read more

Such a cute, quaint little flower shop. The woman working there was weet as can be. The succulents were all arranged--not too crowded and perfectly pieced together int he cutest little teacups and pots. Flowers for arranging were dispersed among the shop and I noticed the little greenhouse featuring all the hot-natured plants like ferns. Thumbs up and green for the Wooly Pockets which they do have here. I bought my mini Wooly Pocket for just $18 and am floored at the new planting I'll be hanging from it and my wall soon. Service was friendly and since I'm an out of towner, appreciated. Also LOVED the little homemade "not for children's eyes" cards up front. Take a look and flip through them for some laughs and you might just leave with one for an occasion. read more

I live in San Diego, but I wanted to have flowers sent to my good friend in Portland for her wedding. She was having a small courthouse wedding and my friends and I wanted to make sure she felt our presence even though we couldn't be there. Not wanting to send some run-of-the-mill, impersonal bouquet, I did some research into local flower shops. I choose Emerald for a couple of reasons: first, their bouquets are gorgeous! The pictures on their website are beautiful, but pictures from Yelp show me bouquets that are just as pretty (so you know their bouquets are consistently that nice!). Second, I liked that they are an eco-friendly shop and use local and seasonal flowers. It made me feel like my friend would be getting the freshest, prettiest flowers! I worked directly with Hilary in ordering the bouquet. She was wonderful- she took the time to tell me about the types of flowers she had available and was so flexible with my budget. My friend LOVED her flowers! I'm glad I choose Emerald. read more

I've been holding off on this review so I could get a couple orders in. I recently moved up from Phoenix, and have used Emerald Petals for three different occasions: congratulating my wife on her new job, Valentine's Day, and my wife's birthday. Each time I have been truly impressed as these arrangements are not the typical "online" style, but extremely unique and fitting for the Pacific Northwest. They ask you exactly what your looking for and knock it out of the park. read more

I am not surprised to find only 5 star reviews for Hilary and Emerald Petals! She has an incredible eye for great bouquets from simple foraged table arrangements to the elaborate show stoppers. A total pro who is wonderful to work with, I highly recommend her for any occasion! read more

I ordered flowers from the East Coast to be delivered to a friend who's mother had just passed away in Portland. Hilary was incredibly helpful!!! This place is amazing, from the quality of the customer service, to creative ideas to help make your vision come to live, to the price, to the flexibility in delivery dates and times, and finally the beautiful flowers and arrangements! I highly recommend emerald petals! read more

Sweetest little place, this gal really has a gift for arranging flowers. Lots of sweet little succulents and houseplants, along with beautiful arrangements to choose from. read more

Hilary is the best florist in Portland! I've been buying and receiving flowers/plants from her for years and each piece she creates is breath taking. She is reasonably priced and shines with her sustainable practices. I love her work so much I started having her deliver two bouquets to my office every two weeks and it just brings so much beauty to our space. Highly recommended for any occasion. read more

We went to Emerald Petals for our bouquets and boutonnieres, and they were beautiful! I didn't give Hilary a lot of direction, just a color spectrum and asked that they be pretty. And she did! Everything came boxed for easy transport, and the men's pieces were labeled. That was a helpful touch at the last minute. I thought about making my own flowers to save some money, which I don't think would have saved me money in the end. Having a pro take care of the flowers totally saved my sanity, I couldn't have been happier! read more

This is a great shop tucked within a great shop. Go to the back and enjoy the scents and sites. It's locally owned and operated by someone who cares. Hilary will offer kind advice with your happiness in mind. My wife has purchased many plants there and so should you. Her shop is boutique-like without boutique pricing. Highly recommended! read more

The front of the shop is a funky place. I always walk past it to the florist in the back. She is fantastic at helping me score points with my gf and her momma. If you're in a pinch for raunchy bday/valentine/etc. cards they have some here too. Always get a kick out of browsing them as I wait. read more

We give Hillary our ideas and she executes it flawlessly. I am always stunned with how beautifully wild, elegant, and natural her flowers are arranged. Every detail is a surprise that exceeds expectations. I have used her arrangements for a bridal shoot and in my home and would highly recommend Emerald Petals for any and all occasions. An absolute gem. read more

She's absolutely incredible, you won't be sorry. She has environmentally-friendly practices, she knows her stuff, and turns out GORGEOUS bouquets and flower arrangements. She did my wedding and I mentioned wanting herbs or something akin in my bouquet and she put in the most beautiful mint leaves and green blackberries that were gorgeous and perfect. I honestly can't recommend her high enough. Oh, and just a stellar person, in general. read more

This is one of my favorite little shops on Mississippi. I work in the neighborhood and can never pass by without checking it out. The selection here is all over the board, from tiny arrangements of succulents in vintage pots, to giant orchids and local greenery. The owner is really sweet and informative, and has an ability for matching color and fragrance that is apparent the second you walk in door. Check it out! read more

Hilary just created some arrangements for our wedding over labor day weekend. They took my breath away! We didn't give her much direction other than very basic requests, and so I was amazed to see what she came up with. She made three large, dramatic arrangements, 6 smaller table top arrangements, and some garland to tie to the trees we were getting married under. She also made my wrist corsage, my mother and mother-in-law's corsages and husband's boutonniere. Although the sizes of her creations were so different, the textures and colors were brilliantly put together without being too matchy. She made our wedding so much more beautiful! I will definitely be going to Emerald Petals again. read more

Very sweet. Love the diy vibe of the small little arrangements. Quick and great to work with. Great location

My mother, who lives out of state, needed to send flowers to one of her friend's that had recently lost her daughter-in-law. She called me to see if she could order through a local shop rather then supporting an website. I suggested Emerald Petals and left it at that. At the funeral two days later, my mom's friend made special mention of how impressed she was with the arrangement. It felt wonderful to have supported this family in some way through their suffering - what a blessing. read more

I ordered Valentine's flowers from Emerald Petals and had a great experience working with Hilary. She created a unique bouquet that impressed my sweetie. Hilary gets back to you right away and even fulfilled my request for a morning delivery. Great to see small, local businesses executing so well. Can't recommend her enough. read more

Hilary is an angel. I was such a bridezilla about the bouquet. She was the only florist who graciously agreed to recreate something I'd seen on Pinterest - even hand dying the silk fabric to match the picture. As the wedding was on the coast, we decided to pick up the flowers two full days in advance. They kept beautifully. She really could not have been more accommodating and helpful. read more

I just got some flowers for my sweetie for Valentine's day from this shop and the arrangement was beautiful. They also have lots of great plants and cool sculptural branches. read more

While visiting the West Coast I had the chance to take a little mississippi ave cruise and was delighted to find this beautiful shop! Beautiful setting, unique displays and a darling owner, to boot! In particular, the vintage vases and flower pots/holders are what caught my eye. I wish I lived closer so that I could stop in regularly. Luckily, now I know what to bring to dinner parties when I come back to Portland (an emerald petals arrangement!) read more

Hilary is a brilliant florist who creates show-stopper arrangements, terrariums and wreaths daily. Her business practices are ethical and environmentally conscious, and her intuitive grasp of color and design makes working with her both easy and very rewarding. She has that rare combination of talent, creativity and attention to detail (and drive!) that makes her work really stand out. read more

Recovering from surgery, the staff from my work sent me a precious Spring flower bouquet---what a fantastic pick-me-up at the end of week one of the three week recovery period!!! The Emerald Petals delivery person was very gracious!!! Thank you for bringing a positive message of love and caring into my life. As soon as I am out and about again I want to visit your shop---the other reviews make it sound like a local business I will frequent!!! read more

I love this little shop! The decor is constantly changing, and the owner is so kind! She will happily put together a terrarium or arrangement for you while you wait, and items are SO affordable. Do yourself a favor and skip the overpriced, unfriendly Pistil's on the other end of Mississippi! read more

This flower shop does the best arrangements of any flower shop I've ever been to. I've been buying flowers for my wife for years, and the arrangements from this shop are her hands down favorite. Even as a dude, I've been really impressed every time I've been there. I think ordering ahead may yield better arrangements. read more

Amazing! I waited until the last minute to plan my flowers and Hilary knew my vision right away. She took care of my bouquets and boutonnières and I was so impressed by how perfect it all was! My guests said it was the most beautiful they've seen!!! Thank you! read more

I highly recommend Hilary and Emerald Petals. While I live in Chicago, I've used Emerald Petals for years to do flowers for my mother, who lives in the Portland area. My wife and I first discovered this shop when we were walking along Mississippi. Hilary did a great arrangement for us to bring over to my folks. Now whenever I want to order flowers for my mother, I call Hilary, who always does a great job. Hilary goes above and beyond, remembering each time to omit flowers that might be poisonous to my folks' cats. read more

Hilary deserves 10 stars for her work! She is absolutely wonderful to work with (and "wonderful" doesn't really do her justice) - she did the flowers for our wedding on April 12 and her work was absolutely stunning - beautiful, seasonal, whimsical, fun & elegant. More than that, she is personable and collaborative - feel like she truly loves her work and truly cares about your event - be it a single arrangement for a special day, or flowers for a wedding. Cannot recommend her enough! read more

This shop is so beautiful! Lovely inspiring arrangements of botanics and new handcrafted and vintage vessels abound in every direction, and there's a fantastic age-eroded greenhouse housing potted plants that is pure joy to view. I get flowers here every week if possible (although many flowers are so fresh that they last long enough for me to skip a week) and the owner is always so sweet, and happy to answer questions or dig out the perfect thing from the back room to finish a bouquet. I can always fill up a vase with an eclectic mix for $12 tops! The selection is more limited than a typical florist, but that's because most of the flowers are local, seasonal and sustainably grown. I always find something I am happy with, and having some limitations means I try things I normally wouldn't notice at a bigger shop. Every time I run errands after picking up an arrangement I get compliments on the lovely flowers I'm carrying. Use your Supportland card to get punches towards a free arrangement! read more

Hilary did an amazing job with the flowers for my recent wedding. She was great to work with in the months leading up to the event as we discussed what visuals I wanted and our price range. Everything felt fairly priced and I was really impressed by the quality of the flowers and the artistry of the arrangements. She was also super responsive, which I really appreciated. I'd order flowers from her anytime! read more

What a wonderful and rewarding experience I had with Emerald Petals. I found this florist on Yelp since I wanted to support a local business to order a bouquet for my son and daughter-in-law who just moved to Portland. After reading their great reviews and satisfied customer comments, I decided to call Emerald Petals. I was unable to request specific flowers for the arrangement since I'm in the northeast and not aware of what is fresh and available in the northwest at this time. But, when I saw a picture of the flower arrangement that Emerald Petals created, I was so impressed and thrilled with the arrangement! It is gorgeous, creative, and very special! I couldn't have asked for a more wonderful arrangement to convey my good wishes! I will definitely use Emerald Petals again and couldn't recommend them more highly. read more
