Grow Plant Shop's First Brick-and-Mortar to Open Saturday - Fort Worth Magazine
Wednesday, March 31, 2021Magnolia Avenue plant shop Grow.
That's because, on Saturday, Grow will be celebrating the grand opening of its new digs — the shop's first-ever brick-and-mortar location at 4800 Camp Bowie Blvd.
In a social media announcement, Grow stated that it would forgo a grand opening party due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Only six customers will be allowed in the shop at a time, and any overflow will need to wait outside, six feet apart. Masks are also required.
Still, it's a welcome change for the plant shop that built a loyal following on Magnolia, thanks to its eye-catching, chrome Airstream, parked on the lawn next to Maggie's R&R and stocked to the brim with an ample selection of shrubs, succulents, and other greenery. Owners Emily and Bobby Lynge always saw the Airstream as temporary, however, and during the pandemic, were able to make the move to the space once occupied by The Enchanted Florist on Camp Bowie.
The Magnolia Avenue Airstream will be open until Thursday. On Saturday, the Camp Bowie space will be open from 10 a.m. – 7 p.m.

Master florist to the stars opens store beneath Jim Bowie Live Oak in Opelousas - The Advocate
Thursday, March 12, 2020Beneath the shade of the Jim Bowie Live Oak in Opelousas, a new floral and garden shop run by a master florist who has worked for celebrities, sports teams and high-class hotels across the Gulf South has opened its doors.Moss Floral & Garden, 133 W. Landry St., is the new labor of love for Maude Mashburn and her husband Lex Jagneaux, son of St. Landry Clerk of Court Charles Jagneaux. They recently moved from New Orleans to Opelousas to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city and get closer to family. "When we saw the building, we just fell in love, and I've run flower shops all my life in New Orleans and Dallas, and I just thought downtown Opelousas could use a boutique florist," Mashburn said. "I was supposed to be retired, but I still wanted to work, but at my own pace. New Orleans was always going, but New Orleans is perfect." #block-706844 .card-panel { background-color: #e7e7e7; border-color: rgba(0,0,0,.08) } ... https://www.theadvocate.com/acadiana/news/business/article_054285ce-49ac-11ea-bcd6-43494a29a1c0.html
New floral shop in one of the oldest sections of Opelousas signifies revitalization - Daily World
Sunday, February 09, 2020Moss Floral and Gardens hosted a grand opening party last week at the new business inside a quaint, brick antebellum structure that, over the years, has served as law offices and the Jim Bowie Museum, which included parish artifacts in the 1960s. Lex Jagneaux estimates the building his business is in, which includes pine and cypress flooring, probably dates back to sometime around 1830, although he is still researching the exact year it was built. Next door to Moss Floral and Garden is the acclaimed Jim Bowie Oak that Lex Jagneaux estimates is more than 200 years old. Included on the side of the massive live oak tree, with root tentacles that extend far underneath the pavement, is an open, bricked courtyard that Jagneaux notes was once the floor of a blacksmith’s shop. The couple's floral business is located between the Wild Child Boutique, located in a 19th Century building, and the new Chicory’s At The Palace Café that is expected to open this month. More: New owner restoring Opelousas landmark The Palace Cafe for a new generation Jagneaux anticipates that restaurant traffic heading to the Palace Café, which opened as a family restaurant 90 years ago, will also bring customers to Moss Floral and Gardens, as well as other businesses on Landry Street. Heading east down Landry is the Back in Time restaurant, operated for many years by Wanda Juneau. On the corner of Landry and Court streets is Java Square, a coffee sh... https://www.dailyworld.com/story/news/local/2020/02/04/moss-floral-and-gardens-opens-opelousas-landry-street-sign-revatlization/4656376002/

The Way It Was: Florist lives in fear of attacks of the hiccups - Texarkana Gazette
Tuesday, September 24, 2019CHILD CARE CENTER USED BY 75 HERESince opening September 16, 1968, The Robison Courts Child Care Center has swelled from an enrollment of 21 to 75 children. Facilities have been added at Bowie Courts. During the first year of operation, approximately 200 children, from six weeks to six years old, have been supervised for varying lengths of time. A staff of 31 is directed by Mrs. LaVerne Williams. The center, planned to complement the Concentrated Employment program, gives mothers a safe place to leave children while preparing for paid employment.Sept. 17:TRIO TO COMPETE FOR SCHOLARSHIPPrincipal W.E. McGuire has announced that three students at Texas High School have been named semifinalists in the 1969-70 National Merit Scholarship program. The students are Corinne Clemmons, Jim Lindsey, and Philip Thomas. The 15,000 semifinalists appointed today are among the nation's most intellectually talented high school seniors. They will compete for about 3,000 Merit Scholarships to be awarded in 1970.Sept. 18:GROCERY STORE IS BURGLARIZEDFor the second time in less than a month, Twin City Grocery at 930 State Line Avenue was burglarized. Entrance to the grocery store was gained by pulling metal bars from the window on the east side of the building. August 24, some $854 was taken from one of the cash registers. A 20-year-old Texarkana, Texas, man is being held in connection with that burglary. Last night it was burglarized again with $650 being taken from one of the cash registers. Investigation is ongoing.Sept. 19:PTA NEWSEighty-two teachers were introduced by J.O. Jones, principal at a meeting of the Parent-Teacher-Association at Arkansas Senior High School. Debbie Cervini sang "His Way-Mine," for the devotional. Her accompanist was Jeannie Powers. The president, Ed Goodson, welcomed parents and teachers and conducted the business session. Approximately 150 members were present. Parents are encouraged to join.Sept. 20:FLORIST HAS HIS PROBLEMFor Walter Broome, the only thing worse than a florist with an allergy to roses is a florist with hiccups. Broome, 52, has been plagued with hiccups off and on for almost 30 years. Broome said that an attack of hiccups usually lasts about two days. When an attack begins he goes to bed and takes a pill prescribed by his doctor. He says it helps but nothing has been able to rid him of the hiccups permanently. "Four days is the longest I've ever had them at one time," Broome said in an interview. He said during the four-day attack that he lost ten pounds. He said that it's worse than pain because once the hiccups stop you always are afraid to move or burp for fear that they will come back. He developed them in the army in 1940.Sept. 21:ARABELLA HEIGHTS EXTENSION HOMEMAKERS CLUBThe club met in the home of Mrs. Carl Jenkins for their September meeting with Mrs. Grace MacKenzie, president presiding. The meeting opened with Mrs. Roy Avance, recreational leader, leading a song, "Precious Memories." The devotional, "Our Daily Bread," was by Mrs. Jenkins.

Texas Florist Who Admitted to Being in Pelosi’s Office Wants Case Moved from D.C. Because of ‘Cancel Culture’ - Law & Crime
Wednesday, March 31, 2021Washington, D.C. because of “cancel culture.” The defense for Texas florist Jenny Louise Cudd, who was on video happily admitting to being in the office of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, asserted authorities were creating the “illusion” of a conspiracy between her and Eliel Rosa by linking their cases.“According to the Government’s Statement of Facts, the two were seen on security footage walking into the building, walking around, and walking out,” attorney Marina Medvin said in a filing Wednesday. “There is no evidence of communications or a plan between the two to enter the Capitol. Instead, the evidence is purported to be that they were at the same place, at the same time, followed a crowd into the open doors of the Capitol building, then walked out. They didn’t take anything, they didn’t break anything.”Cudd was among rioters raiding the U.S. Capitol Building on Jan. 6, after then-President Donald Trump continued to lie that he actually won the 2020 presidential election. The invaders postponed but did not prevent Congress for counting electoral college votes weighing in favor of the real winner, Preside... https://lawandcrime.com/u-s-capitol-siege/texas-florist-who-admitted-to-being-in-pelosis-office-wants-case-moved-from-d-c-because-of-cancel-culture/

Opinion: Florist charged for participating in Capitol riot should be denied trip to Mexico - Houston Chronicle
Sunday, February 28, 2021Violently breaching the Capitol is just a misdemeanor; similar to a minor traffic violation? Since when? Contrast that with Crystal Mason, an African American woman, who a Texas state court sentenced to five years in prison for illegally casting a provisional ballot because she had not yet completed her term of supervised release from prison. The African American woman gets five years for not understanding voting rules regarding probationers, and a white woman has only traffic citation-like charges for rampaging through the Capitol. If that’s called justice; justice is upside down. Patrick J. Killman, Houston Minimum wage Regarding “Dems attempt to usher through school funding, wage increase,” (A6, Feb. 10): One size doesn’t fit all in many situations. A $15 minimum wage may fit New York City but not rural Louisiana. For entry-level jobs for high school and college students a $15 minimum wage may decrease opportunities. Also, some businesses may be more suited to higher minimum wages than others. Hopefully our political leaders can work better together on this important issue. The devil is truly in the details! Mike Fuljenz, Beaumont From the Editorial Board Shame, shame, shame Regarding “‘Sheer cloudy vagueness’ cost one worker his job,” (A27, Feb. 7): Shame on you Academy Sports.
