Behind the Blooms

Owner Clara Gonzales recently visited California to attend the annual Norcal Convention. Days were filled visiting floral farms such as Holland America, Sun Valley Farms, EverBloom and Skyline, just to name a few "Titans" of our industry. It was interesting the see flowers grown in fields, green houses and on the slopping hills of the Carpinteria  region. California grown flowers account for 76% of domestic floral production. Top five specialty flowers are lilies, tulips, gerbera, gladioli and Dutch iris.
The size of their production and packaging facilities were impressive to say the least. Care and handling procedures were meticulous, thereby ensuring that the final product that arrives in our shop and then your home is the best quality.
