Meet your neighborhood florist, Urban Buds: City Grown Flowers - St. Louis Magazine
Sunday, July 05, 2020Missouri—and the property’s 132 rosebushes—while they honeymooned. “I fell in love with horticulture,” says Davis. Within the year, she left New York and bought a farm in Ashland, Missouri, where she began growing and selling flowers. (In 2008, Davis earned a master’s degree in horticulture.) In 2012, Davis and her then-partner (now wife), Miranda Duschack, got word of a greenhouse for sale in Dutchtown. Feeling adventurous, they bought the greenhouse—designed by Lord & Burnham in the ’50s—with an acre of land, eventually acquiring eight more plots that were once the site of Held’s Florist, a flower farm, dating back to the 1800s. Today, the farmstead is known as Urban Buds: City Grown Flowers, where more than 70 varieties of flowers are grown. “We’re in the heart of the city,” says Davis. “Few people get to connect with farming, and [our shop] gives them the opportunity.”

Hometown Hero | South Ashland Florist and Greenhouse - WSAZ-TV
Tuesday, October 22, 2019ASHLAND, Ky. (WSAZ) -- For more than 70 years, South Ashland Florist and Greenhouse was a community staple. Sisters Mary Gifford and Donna Suttle are honored for their decades of work in their flower business that was a community staple for more than 70 years. But those days came to an end in early August when sisters Mary Gifford and Donna Suttle made the bittersweet decision to close their family business. "It started last year Valentine's Day," Suttle said. "We kept saying, 'Are you ready to quit?' 'No, are you?' We kinda joke about it." But friends, family, and longtime customers never thought the day would actually come. "It started 73 years ago," said Gifford. Dad had just bought this house. He started a pansy patch in the backyard, and people got into it ... he had such a vision." ... https://www.wsaz.com/content/news/Hometown-Hero-South-Ashland-Florist-and-Greenhouse-547804661.html

Ashland City woman opens new flower shop
Tuesday, July 17, 2018On June 11, longtime florist Kim Bevels did something she’s wanted to do for years — she opened her own business in Ashland City. The timing was right — unlike three years ago, when she had another offer on the table — for Bevels to finally open her own shop, As You Wish Floral Designs, at 101 Stratton Blvd. The space became available a few months ago, she said. She mainly creates arrangements for big events, including birthdays, funerals and weddings — and holidays like Mother’s Day and Valentine’s Day — but said she wants to be flexible to meet customer’s needs. “I can make whatever you want,” Bevels said. “I can make it happen.” She noted that she can make deliveries locally, or in surrounding areas including Nashville and Clarksville. Learning the industry “fresh out of high school” in 1999, Bevels said the flower business is “in her blood” now. “It’s just making people happy, (and seeing) smiles on their face when they get an arrangement,” she said of her interest ... https://www.tennessean.com/story/news/local/cheatham/2018/06/27/ashland-city-woman-opens-new-flower-shop/738350002/
