Fresh Flowers: Colorado natives open Bloom Bar & Co. boutique in Rockrimmon - Colorado Springs Gazette
Thursday, March 12, 2020We do rely heavily on our independent team. You don’t always find people like this, who will put in their all and best effort as well as a lot of love,” Oliver said.Before landing in Colorado Springs, Maraia and Oliver were traveling nurses who spent time in Denver as well as parts of Washington, California and Georgia.One of the key features that makes Bloom Bar & Co. unique is their drive to support local trade and industries, sourcing only the best and premium flowers, often from Colorado farms, which allows them to skip wholesalers, bringing more value to the customer and extending the longevity of the flowers and plants they sell. Customers of the craft floral boutique have the opportunity to take a seat at the “bloom bar,” where a team member can assist with designing and arranging from a wide variety of floral and foliage pieces, giving customers the opportunity to understand, learn, create and re-create wonderful centerpieces for all occasions.Bloom Bar & CO. also provides services for all special occasions, from weddings and funerals to special events. Same-day flower delivery is available “anywhere in Colorado Springs,” Maraia said.“We want to help you create the event of your dreams, and nothing makes an event like gorgeous flowers! With over a decade of floral design, our master florist is adept at accommodating a variety of budgets and themes. Our experience ranges from small, intimate backyard weddings to grand hotel events,” states the Bloom Bar website, bloombarandco.com.Instead of Happy Hour at a bar, customers of Bloom can enjoy “Flower Hour” daily from 4-6 p.m. Monday through Friday. During that time, Bloom offers a 30% discount off the bloom bar stems.The boutique also offers wares from “local makers” including BonBon Bombardier, Blue Owl Preserves, Lockhart Honey, the Queens TEAAApothecary and Ladyfingers Letter Press.In February, the business will be restarting its popular floral design classes. The classes accommodate up to 12 people at the Rockrimmon location and include seasonal drinks and snacks for students to enjoy.

Bloom & Plume“If you’re looking for something magical, I’m your guy,” says Historic Filipinotown-based owner/artist Maurice Harris, star of the Quibi series Centerpiece and a judge on HBO Max’s upcoming Full Bloom. “The work we do really forces you to be present. It’s a big reminder how nothing is forever.” Harris’ creations, which he describes as “naturally opulent” are as exuberant, inspiring and free-spirited as his personality, with goals that reach far beyond decoration. “I’m hoping that by paving a path to the kind of creative life I didn’t have the privilege to see growing up, I will enable other Black kids to dream big dreams and see what they are capable of becoming.” He also runs an attached café, which features turmeric lattes, chagaccinos and Clark Street bread, which is open for pickup... https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/best-bloom-nine-la-based-florists-brighten-anyones-day-1298836
Cambridge florist’s truck broken into after delivering meals to frontline coronavirus medical workers - Boston Herald
Sunday, July 05, 2020The owners of a fourth-generation florist shop in Cambridge woke up to disturbing news Wednesday when they learned someone had broken into a truck they’ve been using to delivering thousands of meals to frontline healthcare workers amid the coronavirus pandemic.The passenger side window of Central Square Florist’s truck got smashed overnight inside the Green Street Garage in Cambridge.The family-owned business since 1929 has been shuttered since the coronavirus shutdown, and instead they’ve been volunteering their vehicles to deliver food to frontline healthcare workers.“It’s just very frustrating,” Jackie Levine of Central Square Florist said of the truck break-in. “It’s bad regardless when people do this, but it’s even worse now.“It just hits harder because we’re already stressed out that we’re not open,” she said. “We don’t need this kind of frustration.”They’re on pace to deliver about 4,000 meals to medical workers this week.

Florists create special bouquet with toilet paper - Valley News Live
Sunday, July 05, 2020When you order a bouquet for that special someone in your life, what comes to mind? Roses? Lilies? How about toilet paper?The owners of Blossom Events and Florist say they’re not your typical flower shop. David and Bart Faulkner say they’re coupon-cutters and were already stocked up on toilet paper when stores started selling out.They created the special edition toilet paper bouquet and posted a photo of it online last week. The picture solicited hundreds of comments and calls from across the nation.“Same concept. It has greenery, it has water, it has a vase, it has a ribbon. Lots of mechanics on the inside,” Faulkner said. “It took a lot of labor. You just can’t make tissue paper look pretty. You just can’t.”David and Bart say they’ve only sold a couple of the bouquets so far.??Work Flow ....

Local florist offering delivery specials to nursing homes - 13abc Action News
Sunday, July 05, 2020However, one Sylvania florist is trying to make the best of an awful situation. Jen Linehan owns the flower shop Beautiful Blooms by Jen in Sylvania, which has already seen its fair share in wedding cancellations. "Brides are all calling to apologize, and I tell them it's not your fault, we'll do the best we can to reschedule," says Linehan. In the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, nursing homes are also closed to visitors. That's when Jen had the idea for "Blooms for the Blues" -- a special delivery rate to send a bud vase with some fresh blooms to lift the spirits of nursing home residents. Orders, including delivery, only cost $10.72. Customers can order online or over the phone at 419-517-8821 to maintain CDC social distancing guidelines. Linehan said the company is planning deliveries this Friday to Oakleaf Village and Franciscan Care Center.
