*Live plants are an excellent affordable alternative for higher priced, hard to find, cut flowers like Succulents or Orchids. However, live plants count as an outside flower, so we DO NOT allow them in ourDIY space. If you purchase these and wish to add them to your arrangements, we recommend you leave a place holder in your arrangement (like a small straw) and insert these live flowers into your arrangements after they leave our warehouse. Please ask Diane or Tom if you have questions.

Your local traditional flower shop often has many of these supplies for sale as well, including floral food.

For boxes to use for storage and transport, we recommend you check with your local grocery store or liquor store. Liquor store boxes are often best as they typically have dividers.
