The Best Gift for a Flower Lover Is Moda Operandi's Flash Flower Box - TownandCountrymag.com

The box is a collaboration between Moda Operandi Co-Founder Lauren Santo Domingo and Lewis Miller, florist extraordinaire and the man behind the exuberant flower arrangements that have shown up around New York City, bursting out of trash cans and perched next to subway entrances. Each box—there are two you can choose from, Country Wildflower, or Beach Bloom—contains enough blooms for several generous arrangements. They're also accompanied by a series of breezy instructional videos starring Miller himself, explaining how to trim, hydrate, and arrange your flowers.The gift here is not just the gorgeous blossoms but the chance to spend an hour arranging them. My box arrived, neatly packed with 15 creamy white peonies, 10 stems of upright bouvardia, 10 stems of soulful, green helleborus, and 20 stems of cheerful white spray roses. I arrayed my collection of vases, pulled out my clippers, and for a brief moment in time I thought about nothing more than color, proportion, and the balance of green and white. It was a tonic. Here's a sampling of my handiwork: Elizabeth Angell(My only complaint is that I do not own a lazy susan for properly positioning my vase as I work to fill it. I may have to upgrade my set up for future floral-arranging sessions.)The incredible arrangements are available for one more week; a Standard Box is $265 and a Delux is $425. Even better, Moda Operandi will donate $15 from the sale of each Standard Box and $25 from each Deluxe Box to The Loveland Foundation, in support of its mission to bring opportunity and mental health services to Black women, girls, and communities of color. div clas... https://www.townandcountrymag.com/style/home-decor/a32910308/moda-operandi-lewis-miller-flash-flower-box/

Flower Shop Reopens for No Contact Home Deliveries - Spectrum News

Arnold, co-owner, Arnold’s Flower Shop.Without proms and graduations, sales are still expected to be tough.“Graduation and commencement and all of those things a lot of small businesses especially florists depend on those. Without having those open and operating there’s going to be a lot of small businesses that lose business because of that,” said Mosher-Arnold.Most flowers are flown internationally. Those flights aren’t happening right now.“Also just being able to get flowers alone, you have farms in South America who are having to throw them out in multiple trailer truckloads because there's nobody to buy them,” said Mosher-Arnold.With the flowers they do have, they’re delivering the joy of Easter. https://spectrumlocalnews.com/nys/central-ny/news/2020/04/11/flower-shop-reopens-for-no-contact-home-deliveries

Historically Speaking: Florists a big part of Dover - Seacoastonline.com

The business remains in operation, however, with the next generation, Thomas Massingham as owner, located in the small plaza at the corner of Chestnut and Fourth streets.)This was not the only florist operation in town. Recently we mentioned the Elliott Greenhouses set back some distance from the Dover Point Road (the location of the present Ponte Place development). This was a major producer of roses, with a national, even international, clientele. For a time there was a retail store, Thornwood, in the building now occupied by Patty B's restaurant.Bob and Barbara Drew had a small greenhouse on Tolend Road. There was Bob's Flower Shop, Robert Ham proprietor, at 2 Central Ave. In the mid-1940s, there was Brown's Flower Shop (Aaron and Ralph Brown, owners) at 107 Washington St., which advertised being open on Sunday morning.The Whatnot Flowers and Gifts was at 517 Central Ave., owned by Edward and Natalie Duffy, with "a full line of religious articles."Perley Lee and his wife Mabelle had a greenhouse and retail store at 120 Stark Avenue next door to their home. In the mid-’80s the Siranian family at 103 Stark Ave. had a small greenhouse, and just down the road, beyond the current Dover Chevrolet complex, John Viola, who worked many years for the Lees, had two small greenhouses behind his family home.A larger, longer-lived business was Meader's Greenhouses at 21 Back River Road (the remains of some of the greenhouse buildings are still visible). The Meader family had deep roots in the Dover area. John lived at the corner of Back River and the Durham Road. Herbert lived just beyond the greenhouse property at 31 Back River Road (the house with the stone wall), and his son, David, lived at number 43. (Herbert, for a time, was a trustee of the Merchants Bank.) For many years, Meader's retail flower shop was at 10 Third St., then a large addition was built in front of the greenhouses, under David's management, and later became Sweet Meadows. The business was sold to William Hopkins, and subsequent owners have been at the current Portland Avenue location for many years since. (The original Sweet Meadows space is now Deco Dogs dog day care and grooming.)Just across the line in Madbury, close by the Durham Road, was Colpritt's Nursery, and much of the area today is likely supplied by the Wentworth Greenhouses in Rollinsford, which has grown over the years as other wholesale dealers in the area have declined and new neighborhoods have been developed with landscaping becoming a major business enterprise. Locally, in addition to the still active Garrison Hill and Sweet Meadows, there is the Flower Room on the Upper Square, guaranteeing at least that Dover's flower retail remains alive and well.Tony McManus is a Dover native.

Hamilton florist's business has gone from strength to strength - Daily Record

Opportunities for small businesses have been few and far between during the last few months but one Hamilton florist has gone from strength to strength through the pandemic.Michelle Kyle of Michelle’s Flowers has been working with flowers for over a decade. Her business, now based in Haddow Street, has grown during lockdown when a number of local clients decided to send bouquets to friends and family to cheer them up when they couldn’t physically meet. “It’s been going really, really good,” Michelle said. “10 years ago, I had a shop in Blantyre but I had to let go of it because I was ill. “I’ve had some customers but with lockdown I was getting busier with the flowers. That’s when I decided to go back into it and open a wee shop. “At the moment, everything is done online - rather than face to face - or over the telephone. The customers have put a lot of faith into me because they’ve not seen it. They trust me and trust my judgement. “I’ve been advertising on Facebook and I’ve got a wee room so I can do more flowers. We’re having a wee open day on Saturday - I’ve got the hand sanitizer, we’ll... https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/news/local-news/hamilton-florists-business-gone-strength-22502590
