Rose bloomed in her flower shop, community - Prince George Citizen

Rose Pho Dorish 89 was born in Estavan, Sask. in 1927 to parents of Russian descent. The family has spent more than 100 years in Canada after leaving Odessa, Russia in the year of 1913.She owned and operated The House of Flowers, a florist shop that thrived because of her belief in a quality product and the delivery of good service. She did a tremendous amount of sales as a result of being associated with the Florist Transworld Delivery service also known as FTD. FTD was a floral wire service that was originally founded as Florists' Telegraph Delivery in 1910 to help customers send flowers remotely and on the same day by using florists in the FTD network who were near the intended recipient. With the arrival of credit cards, people could now bypass FTD and order flowers for delivery on their own through grocery stores as well as simply placing a long distance call to a florist in the intended location including overseas deliveries. article continues below Trending StoriesEventually FTD, who held a near monopoly position in the florist market, sold out to a private company and Rose's volume of business changed dramatically.

Flowers by Adela - Community Impact Newspaper

Adela Pendergrass, who opened Flowers By Adela on Feb. 1, 1977, at 3756 Cartwright Road and then opened a Sugar Land store five years later.By 2012, Ramona and Olan’s daughters, Olivia Ohl-Lara and Odessa Ohl, were working for the business full time.Flowers by Adela lists among its clients all Fort Bend ISD schools and the Fort Bend Chamber of Commerce. Designs range from roses to tropical and artificial plants. Same-day delivery for orders placed by 3 p.m. is available.Out-of-state and international customers place orders for their friends or relatives who live in the area, Odessa said.“I even have this lady—she probably does this two times a year—she calls from London,” she said.The business has weathered two recessions in the Greater Houston area. The Ohls saw a drop in orders when the price of oil plummeted two years ago. So how has the business managed to stay afloat?“By the grace of God,” Odessa said.Web searches and social media now generate nearly 85 percent of customer orders, Ohl-Lara said.The Ohls are uncertain what the future holds for them. Olivia and Odessa said the long hours that require them to stay on their feet make it a physically demanding job.“It’s very hard work,” Ohl-Lara said. “You’re dealing with perishables … you can’t sit on these for a long period of time.”But the Ohls said a florist provides significant experience for the workplace and also for life in general.“We try to give everybody personal service and make it right,” Ohl-Lara said.

His real education, however, happened in 2012 when he started Tall City Delivery.On-demand delivery connects businesses that want to deliver but don’t have the staff and customers who are willing to pay a little extra to have products delivered to them. West Texas ToGo’s biggest clients are local restaurants.Customers visit West Texas ToGo’s website, finds a restaurant’s personalized page and menu and place their orders on the site. West Texas ToGo also handles credit card processing for the restaurants.

Carlene Wells is the founder of Bloomin’ Across Texas. (via Elizabeth Ucles/Community Impact Newspaper) Almost 30 years ago, Carlene Wells left her corporate career to pursue “something different,” she said.

Eleven years later, Wells opened a second location in Cedar Park.The business is first and foremost a family affair, Wells said.

Some of the shop’s first flowers decorated a wedding.
