The boutique hosts workshops for making flower crowns, flower arrangements, and wreaths––which are paused due to COVID until further notice. Petalos Kingston Occupying a cute corner storefront in Kingston’s Stockade District, Petalos Floral Shop offers a mix of house plants and fresh flowers, specializing in small weddings and custom arrangements. While flowers certainly take center stage here, there is a healthy selection of small and medium-sized house plants, from pocket-sized succulents to haughty birds nest ferns and lush fiddle leaf figs. Over his 30-year career as a floral designer, Petalos co-owner Brian Bender-Tymon’s client list has included the Saudi royal family, Martha Stewart, US presidents, movie stars, senators, and visiting royal dignitaries. Through the shop’s website, you can curate the exact arrangement you’re looking for by selecting different types of flowers, colors, price range, and the type of occasion, or stop in to collaborate with one of the designers in-person. Victoria Gardens Rosendale Victoria Coyne and her husband, Wayne Waddell, opened Victoria Gardens and gift shop in 2007. An intense remodeling turned a run-down turquoise shack into a spacious Adirondack-style wooden building. Their plant nursery offers trendy foliage, succulents, and cacti, from rubber plants to Swiss cheese plants, anthuriums to maidenhair ferns. The garden gift shop stocks trowels and clippers, planters, lawn ornaments, indoor/outdoor rugs, and lawn seating. The garden center has a selection of trees, shrubs, and perennial flowers that are curated specifically for the region; a knowledgeable staff is around to assist you in making the right selections for your space. Victoria Gardens offers special classes, events, and private garden tours in March through November. Their landscaping department has been working on Ulster County gardens for over 25 years––they provide a one-hour design consultation before beginning your garden to properly curate your vision.

Keirstead's Flower Shop Still Has Strong Saint John Roots - Huddle - Huddle Today

Protea flowers being some of the most popular selections.“Ontario does have locally grown flowers so those are the closest local flowers we get,” said Dean. “Sometimes there’s someone on the Kingston Peninsula or Hampton that’ll bring in garden flowers that we can buy.”A piece of family history (Image: Elizabeth MacLeod)The business was founded by the late Guy G. Keirstead whose passion for flowers led him to first rent a stall at the City Market in 1925.Keirstead’s operated out of the market from 1925 to 1946, until he purchased property on the corner of Charlotte and Princess Street where the shop still operates to this day.Dean said the building survived the Great Saint John Fire of 1877 and used to be a hardware and butcher shop, which were combined to make Keirstead’s.“You have some of the old coolers that we still have from back when they opened up this shop in the 40s,” she shared, which is where they store the flowers.The shop has been run by Brian Keirstead since 1999, who turned the building’s upper level into a museum and gift shop, selling works of local artists such as Fred Ross and Mary Galbraith until it closed a few years ago.From Mid-March to Easter Keirstead stayed open at reduced hours throughout the pandemic, then closed for a few weeks until they reopened before Mother’s Day on May 9.“It’s really difficult getting flowers right now. They’re just starting to come back, but it’s not where it used to be; it’s a little difficult and it’s a little pricier to get flowers right now too,” said Dean. “But other than that, as long as people give us a lot of notice for specialty items we can get them in.”Working reduced hours and with a reduced stock of flowers du... https://huddle.today/keirsteads-flower-shop-still-has-strong-saint-john-roots/
