Minott's Flowers, Portland

Sawyer & Company has been in business for more than 100 years, and the artists approach their work with near reverence. They delicately craft every bouquet by hand, employing a fine eye for color, mood, presentation, and longevity. Their long run in the industry has helped them establish relationships with high-grade growers, and so the florists impose high standards on every rose, orchid, fern, and flower that enters the shop and leaves as art. They create arrangements for all occasions, from bouquets that pop with color and burst in celebration to refined arrangements that hit softer notes. And they're happy to offer care and maintenance tips and to debrief clients on any flower's meaning.
