Portland Ave Nursery has a wide variety of healthy and vibrant plants to choose from, and their prices are reasonable. I was on a mission to find a particular plant that after failing to find it at 2 other larger nurseries in the area I almost gave up and didn’t bother stopping by but I did and was surprised to find it among other plants that only Portland Ave Nursery seemed to have in stock. Highly recommend checking out this place when checking off some of your wishlist!

wonderful collection of indoor plants with reasonable prices. One of the few places i could find good looking carnivorous plants and unique finds for both regular and snake plants (my favorites).

I am a botanical type, herbologist to be specific. plant plants are not my thing, however when I arrived to this location I was met with a sort of rudeness and missinformation on a plant I was after. noone reached out or asked if I needed help, every acted like they were to busy to assist or show any sign of customer service... thou I am a young male in a hoodie so I guess thats why I was "overlooked". i asked a lady once and she couldnt even be bothered to stand infornt of me and answer, she acted like she was to busy to help and even turned and walked away while talking. I brought A picture of a plant, very specialized... a jappanese money tree.and they couldnt not identify it, one did and gave me the wrong information. I brought a friend of mine, an older gentlemen in a cane, and I seperated and was watching him from afar and was looking at plants, and noone came to help him. they have a great selection, they are small, but I think I will take my plant buying someplace else. I love my plants but I perfer customer service with a non biased attitude and people who are more knowledgeable on their products. left something to remember.

Portland Ave has always been a great garden resource. Herbs I bought there a month ago are growing so well I'm giving herbs away. And now I got three beautiful and hard to find 2' tall shade plants for less than $60.

We love Portland Ave. Nursery! They have high quality items and a huge selection. Katie and Grace are two of the most amazing people we have encountered at any business. They both are not only super friendly and knowledgeable but they are also extremely fun to talk to. Both have helped us with finding the right plants and offered alternative that would fit even better with what we had planned. Thanks Katie and Grace for all the amazing service and experiences!

excellent selection of outdoor plants, helpful when you can find someone to help but it is sometimes difficult to.

All the coworkers are so helpful with finding plants that you're looking for, if you have questions and they don't know the answer they always find it for you

First of all I thought probably over 30 trees here in the last few years and love coming here they have a great selection and are usually very helpful. However the last two trees I bought both had spider mites and we're from different parts of the yard. I get that this happens but it was still a bummer. I brought both of them back right away. And if you don't know what spider mites are you do not want them on your plants. they make teeny tiny small lines that look like the beginning of a spiderweb but they're all over and by the time you can see him it's usually too late to treat the trees. when I brought them back I asked him how they treated them so it didn't spread to other plants that were susceptible and the gal told me that they didn't they just put them back out! What? how can you work at a nursery and think that's OK? Super sad! she said nature has a way of working these things out and I'm thinking obviously they don't ,both trees that I have had them. If nature had a way of working it out then they wouldn't be out there at all.
