Pistils is a great plant shop for both beginners and those with a green thumb. The folks that work there are all very knowledgeable of their variety of plants and how to take care of them. They have a range of plants from big rare plants to tiny succulents. They also have things like crystals, and decor so it's a perfect place to get gifts for you or loved ones. Their prices is reasonable as well. read more

My husband Chris & I had a lovely experience with Jerrod this afternoon. He's a kind, mellow guy who helped us repot one of our succulents that we had accidentally knocked over earlier at home. He also suggested a new tropical plant for the original pot we had chipped. I highly recommend both Pistils locations here in Portland. You will feel calm & inspired! p.s. I'm just bummed we forgot to provide our phone # for our points. Can you add them post visit? read more

the whole team is so welcoming and so knowledgeable. lily and Kate have especially been so helpful on so many occasions - the medical team behind my plants to keep them thriving. I love the new ficus I bought! the best selection of plants in town! read more

I was in the area and saw this inviting plant store. When I walked in, the vibe made me feel comfortable. The salesperson greeted me in a friendly way. I saw the terrarium area and asked to make one. Lily helped me pick the perfect plants, explained the process and let me unleash my creativity on my own. I had so much fun. The prices are affordable and it was an enjoying way to spend time amongst all the beautiful plants and then take my treasure home. The store had quite a few customers which tells me the selection, service and value were top notch. I can't wait to bring my family to the store so they can make a terrarium for themselves. read more

I've always loved shopping at this store, and today Lilly was extremely helpful and just such a joy! What a great store all around.

What a lovely little place! So glad I stopped by, such a wonderful assortment of plants and the two girls who worked there, Lilly and Kate, were both incredibly knowledgeable and an absolute pleasure to talk to. I left with a really cool resurrection plant, a beautiful hair clip and a great book recommendation! read more

Nice little shop in trendy area. Not as big as the main store, but worth a look. Street parking can be packed at times.

Gorgeous space. Clean airy and full of light. This place is deceivingly big! I wanted to buy everything. The things in here are pricey but absolutely beautiful. The staff is super knowledgeable and friendly. Definitely would come back. read more

Last month I stopped by Pistils (the cutest plant shop) and Caroline helped me with purchasing a lil flower frog! I've been interested in arranging flowers differently but didn't know where to start. Caroline gave me lots of helpful tips and even some moss to start off with! This was very kind of Caroline, thank you so much! read more

Pistls is the best. Always super friendly and informative with great suggestions. Caroline is terrific. Thanks to all!

I have over 30 plants now. Any questions or concerns I have I just walk to pistils and ask a staff member for help. They have helped me with things like knowing when plants need fertilizer and what temperature of water certain plants like. Lots of things that make my plants happier which makes me happier. Pro-tip always check out the red tag sale corner, 30% off. I've gotten some nice pots and a couple plants that just needed some tlc and are now looking great in my home. Thanks again all staff. read more

I'm a fan of the store! The first time I went, a couple months into the pandemic, the line was long and it took such a long time. The second time, when I went today, the line moved faster and it seemed there were more plants. I don't know, maybe my expectations were too high initially. All the plants they have were really great, had a variety of prices too. The pottery section is really my favorite. They had pots that would look great with any plant collection. So if you're getting pretty sick of this pandemic, started a plant collection or want to just a place you can browse, come here. They do only allow maybe 2 or 3 people in their main plant room and 2 people in their cash register room. They kindly ask you keep your shopping to a 15 mins maximum so others can shop as well. The person who was handling the register was very knowledgeable and good at controlling the plant people traffic. This place is defitely on my top 5 places for plants and all sorts of plant items. Their moss pole is beautiful and will happily go there again when I need a calm place or need a pretty pot. read more

Recently moved to NW Portland and stumbled upon this place. I have been really impressed with the friendly customer service each time I have been in the store and made a purchase. I was just in again today and received excellent help from Lily. I bought a new plant and planter that she graciously re-planted for me. I will continue to visit this place regularly and encourage you to do so as well. read more

I like Pistils. But I can't love it. I came here for my partner (as seen in my photo) who has picked up a plant hobby during this time. And we enjoyed very much walking through the nursery. Many, MANY different options if you are looking to diversify your collection. Or like me stare at the marimo plants because thats the only one you could ever take care of. The interior is a bit more urban which is to be expected and really supplements the aesthetic of a nursery in my opinion. The only reason I can't give it 5 stars is due to its price and being able to find better deals elsewhere. Everything else about Pistils has my heart and out of all the nurseries we visited, it still looked the best. But my wallet would have to disagree. read more

Love this sweet little spot. I've been coming here to buy plants for a little bit now. Yesterday I took the kiddos there to make terrariums for Valentine's Day. We brought our own containers and the really nice clerk showed us where to pick plants and which families of plants would live well together and then let us make it then bad there. The kids picked three plants each at $6 and then got to go thru this fun little dresser with drawers filled with different sands, stones and rocks. Their creations turned out great and the grand total (minus the containers from home) was $35.00. It was awesome. Thanks Pistals!!! read more

I adore this place. Really lovely plants with a clean and modern aesthetic that I can get behind. Tons of containers that I think are gorgeous, and lots of more unique ways to bring plants indoors. Lots of succulents, air plants, rock plants, etc. Make a terrarium. Make a wall hangy-thing. Make a mossy ball with plants coming out of it. Make all sorts of things that I'm sure have real names that I just don't know! Not cheap, but worth it for the curated experience. Visiting Pistils has always made me happy, and I let out a legit little shriek when I stumbled across this new Slabtown location. The ONLY reason I give this 4 instead of 5 stars is because it pales in comparison to their original location on N Mississippi. It's not their fault that this location doesn't have an outside area, but when the OG spot also includes a chicken coop, nothing else can quite stack up. read more

I love frequenting the original Pistils for its selection and ambiance. Came to this location because of the anniversary sale and found it to be a nice and pleasant shop but missing something. I went away finding nothing, which I know I would have at the other location. And to be fair this one had like 3 or 4 great specimens if you are looking for a larger plant. I left and as I write this I am asking myself, If this shop was not a Pistils but another plant shop would it be on my list of plant shops to frequent? And I find myself answering, I don't think so. I feel meh about it. Nothing to dislike but nothing to love either when the original shop is a short distance away. read more

We visited the nursery in preparation for a virtual event that we are participating in next week. The staff was so friendly and offered to answer any questions we had. They had safe Covid protocols and only let 4 people in the shop at a time. There was hand sanitizer provided at the door and social distancing was enforced. We're so excited for our event next week with B where we can learn even more about plants. read more

Huge plant nerd, went in to buy some plants, but the employee didn't answer any of my questions (didn't want to). Gave me a huge attitude about "cactus soil" and argued with me about sand. Insane. Never going back, rather buy plants from home depot. read more

I absolutely love visiting this nursery. Their plant selection has such a wide range, from outdoor to indoor and everything in between. They also have a fantastic selection on pots., literally something for everyone. The atmosphere is very tranquil, they even have chickens roaming on the grounds (my children's favorite part) I highly recommend this gem. The staff is always so friendly and helpful that's why I keep coming back. read more

The newest location of Pistils Nursery in Slabtown is absolutely stunning, and filled with beautiful plants and accessories. The ladies working here are incredibly knowledgable, and very helpful.

I am an avid plant shopper and frequent many plant stores. Every time I come here the staff ignores me or is outwardly rude towards me. I couldn't normally care less because I'm just trying to buy a plant, but I have had such bad customer service experiences here I would never return. read more

Love the sign outside. They had such a cute selection and staff was extremely nice! I felt welcomed and well informed about my plant purchase. read more

They often have a cool collection of planters and plant accessories. They also have outdoor and indoor plants.

Condescending and unclear about how many people are allowed in at a time. Me and my wife drove to this place after finding it online and wanting to buy some house plants to bring some good vibes and nature inside. I have no issues with waiting my turn if there is a four person limit or whatever it is we understand. It was the way we were told to wait outside after stating we're together just meaning we'd like to shop at the same time.... We're told regardless one of you can come in the other cannot it was very condescending maybe we didn't look the Pearl district part or whatever I was ready to spend the $$$. How about are you two together? Could you wait untill a customer leaves until you come in and shop? Thank you, it should not be long. Instead we're told regardless (like I'm an idiot) only one can enter. Won't be back ever. read more
