We purchase many of the flowers we sell direct from flower farms both domestic and international. This ensures the freshness and quality of our product. Buying direct offers lots of great advantages. For example, we are able to reduce the time between when the flowers are cut at the farm and when they arrive in our shop to be used in floral designs. Fresher flowers translate into a more beautiful, longer lasting arrangement. Buying direct also allows us to reduce the number of middlemen in the flower buying process. Reducing the middleman allows us to purchase flowers at a lower cost. Much of the cost savings we produce are passed through to our customers.
