We have a couple in our flat from other local places; these low maintenance baddies can tolerate pretty much anything that happens (... or doesn't happen) to them, they purify the air, and supposedly help with sleep. Skillins to the rescue! I didn't realize HOW enormous their indoor space is; be ready to be surprised too! PRO TIP: This would be a lovely place to bring a coffee and spend an hour wandering around in the middle of winter. It's so warm and bright in here! An employee watering some plants asked me if I needed help, then walked me over to their Low Light Plant section. There were half a dozen or so smaller snake plants available, several of them showing new growth already! They were $10; I feel like that's exactly what I was expecting/hoping to pay. When I was cashing out, the person in front of me was buying a bouquet of flowers. The employee at the register softly inquired if they were for any special occasion. Come to find out they were a surprise for his wife "just because"; the employee then wrapped them up in such a pretty, thoughtful way (and I don't think he was charged for it). When it was my turn, she even wrapped up my snake plant so that it would "stay warm" as I walked to my It looks like they host community events, so be sure to check out their website for fun things to do!

Needed 10th wedding anniversary flowers for a best friend in Maine and had no clue where to look…read more It's been nearly 30 years since I lived in Portland and all my favorite small business flower shops that I remembered were long gone. And those that remained still seemed stuck in 1980's funereal-style arrangements... lots of mums or stargazers and filler. But Yelp helped me narrow down a few possibilities. And I was super delighted to find Fiddlehead Florals! Fiddlehead Florals checked off all my boxes... gorgeous & modern design with beautiful, sustainably-sourced and seasonal/local flower selections; excellent and easy customer service over the phone where the designer (I think owner?) listened to what I hoped to have delivered and helped me arrive at my final decision; and they worked all of this within my targeted budget without trying to just upsell me at their sales target. I found their prices very reasonable for the service, delivery, and of course their selection of beautiful flowers. Since this is a 10th Anniversary, I wanted something dramatic, colorful, and seasonal. I called with almost 2 weeks lead time, and my requested delivery to outside the Portland area was no problem. The florist who took my call was cheerful, gracious, and incredibly helpful in my decision making. We decided upon a designers choice featuring a strong peony base as these were now apparently in season (plus I knew the couple loved them). Extra Pride commendation to Fiddlehead Florals as being super accommodating for my requests for this arrangement for my gay besties celebrating a 10 year marriage milestone. Love wins!
