Blossom to Blush 

How can you not adore Blossom to Blush, a female-owned, sustainable, mission-driven company that delivers artisanal floral designs? The blushing bouquets – also offered as vase arrangements – are made up of fresh market pickings that are shared every Monday. Think, then, a pink king protea with white snapdragons, suede textured dusty pink roses, dusty pink chrysanthemums and white chrysanthemums, or sunflowers with gooseneck flowers, white chrysanthemums and white roses. Each bouquet features a ‘just picked from the garden’ look – order one for someone who loves the exotic.

Julep 

A modern plant destination for the modern plant lover, Julep delivers boxes of freshly cut flowers. From the Hoppípolla box that’s a celebration of beautiful, locally grown tulips to the Moondance box that’s somewhat reminiscent of the Irish countryside with the deep greens of the eucalyptus punctuated by pillowy white roses and gentle lisianthus, the selection won’t disappoint. Looking for a truly original arrangement? The bright and uplifting Here Comes the Sun box with pincushions, roses, golden rods and craspedia is foolproof for someone in your life who always opts for bold florals and specialty blooms.
