Portland Nursery is all about plants. You've got the passion, we've got the plants! Our staff loves to tell about their favorite plants.
Every month the buyers feature their favorite plant pick for the season. Each pick is described by the buyer and then the culture and characteristics are provided.
We hope this helps you expand your garden and your passion for plants!

ANNUALS AND PERENNIALS
We have organized our annuals into three sections to specifically help with container design. Thrillers are the main attraction in the container. They are often bold, colorful, eye-catching components that add height to the design.
Fillers are the fluffy middle layer that adds body to the composition. Spillers are the trailing accents that spill over the edges of the container and tie the whole composition together. Choose plants from each category with complementary color and texture for a well balanced container design.
Annuals for window boxes. Perennials for spring planting. Add more color to your garden.
