I visited this seemingly charming nursery on Mississippi. A really really cute nursery honestly, and I couldn't resist myself to get a Golden Pothos pot that seemed like a good deal with a number of leaves. However, upon attempting to repot it at home, I discovered it was merely a collection of node and leaf cuttings with weak root development. Despite purchasing it from a commercial nursery, not personal plant purges, there was no mention of its propagation status. Within two weeks, half of the leaves turned yellow and died due to the lack of root development, and I am trying my best to salvage the left half, leaving me disappointed and questioned in the quality of their offerings.Update: all the leaves are failing to develop roots and so tired of rescuing these tiny cuts.

Working with Pistils was one of the best experiences we’ve ever had. My husband and I set out to do a mid-scale landscaping project and ended up stranded and in a law suit. Pistils stepped in and agreed to remedy the damage. Not only did they extremely skillfully and professionally right the wrong, but they managed to create something much more incredible, functional and beautiful than we could have managed. They were on site almost daily for about a year and we had not one bad interaction. In fact, they felt like good friends by the end. When we called attention to something, they were immediately attentive. Everything they did was with the utmost care, skill and craft. Cannot recommend more highly. This job became very large scale and expensive, and they not only saved our landscape but probably also our marriage! The wall below was all hand split and stacked.We love you Pistils!!

Online Virtual Experience review: Pistils was excellent to work with, designed an experience for me and my team making terrariums for our desks, shipped beautiful plants on time and talked us through the process on Zoom. Thanks to the team at Pistils for a successful and fun experience!

The store is surprisingly large and spreads out to the back, and it's fun to have a variety of things to choose from.

Awesome experience, I've been waiting, and wanting to go here for like 2 weeks!!! They are open 7days a week!!!! Yes I came when they were closing but that gave me enough to see how cool it is in there. And there were little chickens. This place is an awesome plant shop and if you are in Portland to go check it out.

The shop is houseplant lover's DREAM. A great selection of indoor/outdoor plants, pots, vases, tools, books, etc. The store is absolutely beautiful, and I had a great experience here. I visited the store from out of state, and I'd absolutely visit here again.

Very quaint and cozy local plant store. Super friendly staff (Joey helped us out and helped us find exactly what we needed!) and the clerk (don't know their name but had cool hair) was also very knowledgeable and helpful. Yeah, will def be back.

Joey and Kate are the best and answer all of my annoying questions, hear out my gardening woes and provide me with the answers that I seek all with a truly wonderful energy and a big smile! I stop in here regularly to get my fill of plants and herbs, awesome selection of greenery with some cool chickens hanging out in the back. The purple sage, cilantro and rosemary I picked are thriving!!! Super cute, friendly and helpful environment!

Joey truly is the best ! They so kindly welcomed me in. I rarely come to Mississippi, but always stop in to look around.I told them I was giving a pair of shears I purchased as a gift and they were incredibly thoughtful and genuinely excited to help me. We churched up the shears and saved me multiple steps along the way. They made an already enjoyable experience memorable and special. Thanks Joey!! ?

Highly recommend stopping in to make your own terrarium and find your next plant friend! I was going around to all of the plant stores in Portland looking for a plant and Pistils was my last stop on the list, I was getting bummed because I hadn't yet found a plant I was really wanting but it ended up being my favorite stop and I am so glad I saved the best for last. Pistils has such a wide variety of plants while still giving a small business and very much personal feel to your visit. I have started venturing into new plant endeavors and wanted to make a terrarium so I picked out my plant and my glassware. The employees let me know if I wanted I could set my terrarium up right there at their little (but mighty) terrarium building area! They have everything you need to layer the base, so many different mosses and sands to choose from and even a wide range of rocks and crystals, corks and some cholla pieces! Kate and Joey were so kind and fun while we were in the shop as well, they both really made our terrarium experience so wonderful! The location is also in a really good location with tons of other fun things to do.
