Valentine's Day 2010 - Rose Florals

Our dozen rose floral arrangements are our signature floral. Each Valentine's Day, we take them a step further with more accents in beautiful combinations to make an already impressive floral spectacular. This year we've paired our roses with accents like agapanthus, scented geranium leaf, rex begonia and cymbidium orchids.

Our featured red rose this year is the dark and silky Black Baccara rose. This sultry rose is tops on our list for customers who want to express their love with something traditional but richer than most red roses.

If you are looking to send something a little different, look no further than our smokey lavender rose, Amnesia. This featured rose is bewitching in it's range of color and will have everyone saying "I've never seen a rose like that before!"

Valentine's Day 2010 - Romance in Paradise

It's hard to believe that Valentine's Day is only a month away! It seems just a couple of months ago we were working late to finish romantic arrangements for delivery the next day. Valentine's Day will be here before you know it so we thought we would start sharing with you some of the romantic creations we are offering this year.

Every year we create a few limited edition floral arrangements to offer for Valentine's Day. This year, I think we have come up with some of the most beautiful designs and best values we have ever offered. The first of these is our tropical offering.

Romance in Paradise

This arrangement makes us think of warmer days spent on a beach on vacation. Add a tropical drink and you've got paradise. We combined pincushion proteas, Black Bacarra roses, oncidium orchdis, acacia, asclepias and ming fern for an arrangement that is warm and textural. All of these are arranged in a red, frosted glass vase.

This beautiful floral works well for customers wanting to give something a little less traditional and works well for men and women. Available in two sizes; small (right) for $90 to $115 and large (left) for $120 and up.



Available for delivery beginning February 10th.

Our sister store, Lavender & Vine Florists, has many beautiful arrangements for Valentine's Day as well. Click here to see them.


Valentine's Day Hours
We will be open Saturday, February 13th from 9 to 5 and Sunday, February 14th from 9 until 2 with delivery available both days.

A Beautiful Winter Floral

We created this stunning winter floral for a client as a memorial tribute. We love the lush, northwest elements present in this bouquet: the wild, lichen-covered branches, the soft hush of blue spruce and seeded eucalyptus, densely packed. The white hydrangea encourages the bright, apple-green chrysanthemums and chartreuse cymbidium orchids to stand out amidst this deep forest of leaf and branch.

A memorial is both a gesture of farewell and a celebration of life for the loved one who has passed; as such, we wanted a bouquet expansive enough in texture and palette to express a gentle quietude as well as a joyous vibrancy for the life being mourned. This unique combination of floral elements allowed this to happen.

Holiday Wreaths

Each year we create dozens of custom decorated wreaths for our clients. They make a wonderful gift and are a great addition to a home's holiday decor.

Our wreaths are hand-decorated with fruit, cones and ribbon. Options include apples, pears and citrus varieties.
