About Flowers in Flight

We are a family owned business that began in the spring of 1984 as the original\nflower cart on Pioneer Courthouse Square in Portland, Oregon. For the first 20 years of\noperation, the 3 founding sisters worked to elate and educate clients and recipients\nalike with the beauty of fresh flowers. The popularity of the cart on the Square led to\nanother in the Portland Building and then a small shop at the Skidmore Fountain\nBuilding . In 1988 we consolidated all operations to the historic George Lawrence\nBuilding at SW First and Oak in downtown Portland which remained our home until\nmoving across the river to NE Alberta St. in 2015. The defining\nelements of “flowers in flight” floral art remain simplicity, elegance and the unique\nqualities of locally grown flora.\nWe are now in our 36th year and have for the past 15 years been owned and\noperated by 2 of the original 3 sisters: Mary Anne Huseby, floral artist extraordinaire\nand Pat Hutchins, plant expert and watercolor artist. Cheri Huseby-Jones moved with\nher husband to Washington State where she pursues her other passion–public\neducation. Eight years ago Lily came in as the 2nd generation, spark of energy, needed\nto round out the team. Lily Hutchins brings event planning expertise with a flair for\nmarketing and customer service.\nWe are a well established Portland area retailer who specializes in Exquisite Floral\nArt. Our clients run the gamut both professionally and personally; from well known\nnational and local companies to Portlanders old and new . Our clients order weekly\narrangements for their waiting rooms, bright bouquets and blooming plants for their new\nhires, small soft toned treasures for new babies, high style architectural lobby pieces for\noffice openings, centerpieces for holidays and parties as well as emotion inspiring pieces\nfrom one loved one to another. Each piece that leaves our door is sent with a hand\nwritten message on a print of an original watercolor.
