Spring is Here

It is officially spring and exciting blossoms are happening.  This begins the most prolfic time of the year in the floral world.  Today in our fridge we have lilacs, dogwood, rannunculus, parrot tulips, red bud, vibernum, apple blossoms and hyacinth.  This is in addition to our usual standards of Ecuadorian roses, calla lilies, Casa Blanca Lilies, heliconia, cymbidium, oncidium, phaleanopsis and dendrobrium orchids.  Our 1200 sf refrigerator is always packed with the freshest curated selection of high-end flowers in the Bay Area.

We are always searching for the most unique varieties of flowers.  At Edmond's, a rose is not just a rose.
Edmond's first inspriation when he started the shop 17 years ago was the heliconia.  Today, still, we carry a wide variety of tropical flowers from lobster claw heliconia to monkey tail and antherium.
