We always love chatting with the extremely talented and kind, Sue from The Watering Can Flower Market! This week we talked creative inspiration, about their new addition and Valentines! If your looking for amazing floral arrangements for your next event this team sure is full of flower power and WOW factor!

How do you keep things exciting for Valentines day? What inspires you?

Roses are always the favorite for Valentines Day, but we always like to dream up a new spin to keep it exciting. We take inspiration from European floral design, the elements around us and from each other!

What flower is the most popular choice for the month of February?  

Roses! Mixed flower bouquets are gaining in popularity, but roses are still the symbol of love.

What is your favourite request?  

When a client provides us with a color palette and allows us complete creative freedom.

What event are you looking forward to most in 2019?

It is always hard to choose just one. Each event or wedding has its own exciting elements and we love clients, so we enjoy the process as much as the day.

Is there something you’d love to try that you haven’t yet?

A floral wall or a hanging floral installation would be amazing.

How far in advance do you schedule for a wedding, engagement, baby shower, etc.?

Weddings do tend to book anywhere from 4 months to a year in advance, whereas engagement parties and baby showers fall more within the 2 to 4 month range. We have been known to work our magic in a 1 week turn around though! 

What should people keep in mind when they go to pick out florals for an event?

The color palette is very important and always be upfront with your florist if working within a budget.

Mya, your new puppy, sure is adorable! How has she been fitting in?

We have absolutely fallen completely in love with her. She is adorable!

Being knee deep into the winter season what are some of the best indoor plants you’d suggest to keep things green and fresh?

The focus during the winter is to gravitate towards any plant that will help purify the air while the windows are closed. Ferns, Ivy, philodendrons are perfect for this. Fiddle leaf figs and ZZ plants are really popular at the moment as well.
