Have you ever paused to wonder why some bouquets come with a higher price tag than others? Behind every floral arrangement is a story of seasonality, rarity, and craftsmanship. The cost of flowers isn’t random—it reflects a careful balance of nature, labor, and logistics.
Certain blooms, like ranunculus or protea, are considered premium due to their rarity or limited growing regions. Others, like carnations or button mums, are more widely available and thus more affordable. Seasonal availability also plays a role—spring tulips are abundant in April but more costly in November.
Where a flower comes from can significantly impact its price. Locally grown blooms may be more budget-friendly and fresher, while imported flowers often carry higher costs due to transportation and customs fees. Even within the same variety, the quality of the bloom—its size, stem strength, and freshness—can influence the price you pay.
As florists, we take all of these elements into consideration when pricing your arrangements. But more importantly, we view each bouquet as a thoughtful expression—whether it's to celebrate, comfort, or simply bring beauty into a space. The value lies not just in the blooms themselves, but in the care and intention behind them.
