Flowers for the Things You Want to Say
When you send flowers, it’s true that care, intentionality, thoughtfulness, and artistry are the medium and the message. A floral arrangement perks up a room, brings joy to a loved one, speaks of appreciation and care, and creates precious memories. Parksville Downtown has a florist shop with nearly a quarter century of experience getting the colours, the presentation, and the delivery just right.
Flowers are Everyone’s Love Language
In 2001, Heather and Ron Taylor opened blossoms ‘n such in Parksville. Located on the Island Highway beside Scotia Bank, the shop offers contemporary floral arrangements, traditional displays, and customer-focused designs with expertise and flair.
“There’s always a touching reason to send your love and care to someone — and flowers are the most beautiful way to do it,” Heather told us when we spoke recently. “Of course, the best reason to pick up a fresh-cut bouquet or send a surprise delivery is — no reason at all! That’s when hearts melt. Our team looks to make every floral gift a statement of beauty, whether for someone special or to brighten your living space. We listen to our customers’ hopes and build a pleasing aesthetic. We love creating beauty — that’s our passion and our profession!”
Making Everyday a Valentine’s Day
Heather went on to explain, “Our customers love our ‘garden twist’ on contemporary designs. We use BC grown flowers and accents. Veronicas are a favourite for their splash of colour and regal stature, and we love the surprise when folks realize that the chrysanthemum family produces exquisitely beautiful Santinis, Dorias, and Green Kermits. They aren’t your great aunt’s boring mums anymore! It’s been fun seeing South American carnations, those long-lasting beauties, are making a new splash with antique colours that are gorgeous. They have huge heads with a rustic, garden feel. Paired with a bit of curly willow, contorted hazel, or Nandina bamboo — we have designs that are delightful and fit the occasion.”
blossoms ‘n such carries gift items and cards to pair with cut flower bouquets, custom arrangements, or their ample selection of house and office plants. World famous blown glass by local artist Ted Jolda, unique vases and baskets, or a box of Rogers’ Chocolates — there are many thoughtful ways to put that extra special touch on your gift for a family member, friend, or client.
