Tanya & Julia Duncan
We are a family-owned business that began in the spring of 1984 as the original flower cart on Pioneer Courthouse Square in Portland, Oregon. For the first 20 years of operation, the 3 founding sisters worked to elate and educate clients and recipients alike with the beauty of fresh flowers. The popularity of the cart on the Square led to another in the Portland Building and then a small shop at the Skidmore Fountain Building. In 1988 we consolidated all operations to the historic George Lawrence Building at SW First and Oak in downtown Portland which remained our home until moving across the river to NE Alberta St. in 2015. The defining elements of “Flowers in Flight” floral art remain simplicity, elegance, and the unique qualities of locally grown flora. We are now in our 38th year and have for the past 18 years been owned and operated by 2 of the original 3 sisters: Mary Anne Huseby, floral artist extraordinaire, and Pat Hutchins, plant expert and watercolor artist. In 2012 Lily came in as the 2nd generation and spark of energy needed to round out the team. Lily Hutchins brings event planning expertise with a flair for marketing and customer service. In 2023 Mother Daughter Duo Julia and Tanya Duncan are continuing on the family business while leading the original sisters into retirement. They have a combined 21+ years of floral design & management experience in NE Portland. They are excited to bring a new energy to the shop, while keeping the original family values.
