Friendly staff, ample parking, great selection of products, knowledgeable and friendly staff...what's not to love?1 I asked the staff person ringing up my order how long they have been in business. 1989. The same year moved here. I was stunned. This has got to be one of the best kept secrets in town! Another great local business to support!

I'm giving this place a five star review without having ever bought anything here, because my…read moreexperience was so positive. I came in looking for a very specific size pot, and although the store didn't have what I needed, they sure had a nice selection of very beautiful pottery. I decided not to blow an entire paycheck on the three gazillion plants that I wanted to buy, but the clerk that was working was so much fun to talk to and he and I were working with a patron that had had several drinks before coming into the shop and was having a jolly old time shopping.I found the clerk to be incredibly knowledgeable and totally professional and anytime I need plants or plant supplies, you bet this is my first stop!

What a great little but mighty plant nursery in S.E. Portland Oregon…read more I used to live in this neighborhood and it has many hidden gems. Birds and Bees Nursery is one of them. I'm a member of Carnivorous Plants Society of Oregon and one of my things is finding places that sell Carnivorous Plants outside of the big box stores. Sure the big Home store has plenty of Venus Flytraps every year but it's a cruel thing to see a plant abused by employees who don't know how to care for such a plant. First of all this plant has 2. basic needs. 1. All the direct sunlight it can get. At least 12 hours a day. 2. Distilled Water or Rain water. To see this plant living inside the store on a shelf dries out is a difficult thing to see. If it is watered, Tap Water us what it's given. Tap water is a for sure slow death to a Venus Flytrap Plant. So in my search, I found a little nursery in the burbs. Next to a Taco Smell restaurant, full of all sorts of plants from vines to carnivorous plants. In my interest, they had Sundews, Picture Plants and a ton of Venus Flytraps all sitting in the full sun. I found what I thought was a good specimen and when I picked up and looked at the Venus Flytrap I wanted, I realized it was actually 3 small and one slightly larger Venus Flytrap plants in the same pot for (I'm pretty sure in right. I was so excited to find such an awesome plant that I kinda forgot and the receipt wasn't helpful.) $15.00. They're usually about $10.00 for a common Venus Flytrap plant. I basically bought 4 plants for $3.75 a piece. With such great prices, my wife found a couple plants she couldn't leave without. We both left Birds and Bees happy. Update on our plants. They're all thriving in their new home.

A friend heard about this shop, so we drove over from Beaverton for a delightful wander! I confess,…read moreI need to get my yard back under control before adding to it. I was super inspired but so many plants they have. That native plants section is amazing!! We did a slow wander and came inside to continue to want to purchase everything! A favorite shop to me has a bit of everything. I want to be a person whose home is full of plants but I have four cats.... I would genuinely be bringing them home to murder house. One entire table is dedicated to the wonderful work of Ida Galash - she paints rocks and makes floating coy and frogs - I have them in my pond sense I can't afford to buy sushi (aka real live coy) for the local raccoons - they have cracked a few open just to make sure that they are not real. I wanted almost everything in that room! Somehow I managed to resist - but I got 2 of Ida's frogs, 4 bee magnets, a lovely white porcelain snail and a perching crow , who will look stunning when I place her on my house! My friend was sweet enough to buy me a outdoor stone frog. I encountered several employees who were so sweet - I even shared some bug stories with one! This shop is a great example of a place that makes you enjoy shopping. And yes, some of the things are very expensive, but, there are plenty of things that are very reasonably priced also. It is curated very well, I saw so many things I have never seen at other places. Clearly , somebody took the time when buying things for the shop - details matter. I also appreciate a lot of local offerings down to dried flower boutonnieres. If anyone needs this for a dance, a wedding... wear one to brunch!

One of the best things about the change of seasons is the Portland Nursery Annual Apple Tasting…read moreEvent, normally beginning on the Friday of the second weeked in October and running through the next ten days. This year's event begins on Friday, October 12, and runs through Sunday, October 21. During the festival the nursery offers over sixty varieties of apples and pears, all for only 99 cents a pound, as well as fresh-pressed cider and, on Fridays though Sundays, a tasting line where you can sample every kind of apple and pear the nursery has. Plenty of activity for kids, including a scavenger hunt, face painting, games, and pumpkin painting. Live music on both weekends and over a half dozen vendors. The nursery also sponsors the Annual Apple Tasting Food Drive, which benefits the Oregon Food Bank. Collections for the food drive end this year on the 24th. Like nearly everyone we pick up a good variety of apples and pears, debating later on about each variety's merits. We always grab a few kinds we've never tried. I'm partal to braeburns, king davids, spitzenburgs, and ambrosias (so popular that in years past there's been a one-bag limit), as well as Asian pears. There are also several rare, hard-to-find apple varieties. Get there early for the line for the free tastings. Give yourself ample time to find a parking spot since the nursery's lot is always full.
