Hello to everyone in Kelowna and all around the world! We hope 2005 brings you all happiness, good health and prosperity.
The weather here has been very unusual this winter; very cold and then unusually warm. Things at our flower shop are buzzing right along with planning for Valentines Day and the very busy wedding season that is fast approaching.
When you are planning something special for your sweetie this Valentines Day include a bouquet of flowers. It doesn’t have to be big or expensive but the gift of fresh flowers is such a novel and romantic thing to give.Flowers are a visual expression of your feelings and emotions. If you are going for dinner pick up a bouquet on the way, or better yet, have us deliver them before you get there! And for you romantic women out there, men LOVE to receive flowers as much as you do!
Our fabulous staff can give you lots of ideas for an appropriate selection! Visit one of our online stores today to send flowers to someone you miss:

Roses are still the most popular stem of flower at Valentines Day. However, the original flower symbolizing this holiday was the red tulip. We will have lots of each of these flowers in stock along with many other varieties for you to choose from.

Roses are very expensive at this time of the year because of supply and demand. You will pay about $6.00 per stem for a single rose at our shop during Valentine Week. Our cost to purchase roses triples or quadruples for this occasion event so please bear with us!! We always try to get our customers the best value AND quality for their dollar.
Instead of buying 12 red roses for around $100.00 at Valentines Day we can suggest many other options to you that would be equally or even more beautiful for the same amount or less.
