To say I am a lover of all things floral is a bit of an understatement. Flowers were not necessarily always an interest of mine (though my mom can recall me touching every bloom in sight as a babe) but once I caught the bug, I was hooked. Living in a city where the color green is few and far between, the flower shops are my version of running through a field of daisies. In any new city, I go all hound dog and sniff out the nearest enchanting botanicals. Here are some favorites...
