- Florist's Suggestions

The best way for you to send flowers or plants, is to call and talk to me or our staff personally. You can explain what your needs are and then we can create a custom design using the best quality flowers available. If you give us enough time and need special flowers for a special occasion we can get them for you. And remember we do have a free service of sending you a picture by e-mail of what your friend received.

Since 1978, we have been delighted to provide beautiful flowers to San Francisco

The story began when I was about 11 years old. One afternoon, my father called me out to his Flower Garden to show me a flower that had just freshly bloomed. My heart raced as I saw how beautiful and elegant that single flower was. Then I smelled the flower. Oh my goodness! It was like heaven. I never experienced that fragrance before. That flower's name was Freesia. I can still remember that magical moment when my heart was drawn into the flower world.
My Father was the reason I became a florist.

It is our pleasure and honor to know that flowers have been filling people's hearts with Happiness, Joy, a sense of Healing and creating wonderful Encounters.

Attention to Quality

We are a Japanese Florists so our method of flower care is based on the Japanese Way.This includes MIZUKIRI, which means cutting each flower under water so that no air goes into the stem.

• We change water every day or every few days. Fresh water for flowers is very important.

• For Roses, we put a water tube on the end of each stem after MIZUKIRI, so the blooms are never Out Of Water until they are put in a vase.

• We provide a Care Instruction Sheet with each Orchid Plant.

• We sell Scissors, Shears & Clippers at The Flower Girl. We recommend to use the right tools for the right flowers because that is the secret to enjoying flowers longer.

• We offer a Free E-mail Service - a photo of the arrangement that's been delivered to the recipient (if you provide an e-mail address when you place your order).

• How to keep flowers fresh longer.
1. Re-cut the stem and change the water every day or every other day.
2. Clean the vase and add a couple of drops of Clorox to the water.
3. Keep the arrangement out of the sun and away from appliances.
