S is for Spring
Its that time of year again, when we all start to get a little bit antsy about the weather. Soon we'll be leaving March and heading into April, and the light is finally starting to show at the end of the long tunnel of winter.

Florist Abroad - Japan
Last November, my boyfriend and I were lucky enough to travel to Japan. It was our first time in Tokyo and there was so much to do that, when I heard that it was the Chrysanthemum festival (full disclosure- Chrysanthemums have never been my favourite flowers), I certainly wasn't going to go out of my way to see them. Fortunately, I didn't have to!

Keep Your Head Up Miss Rose !
If I had a dollar for every time I got asked this question, I’d be comfortably living on a private island sipping champagne, watching the sun rise and set!

Here at Westmount florist we spend so much time around beautiful flowers, we find ourselves playing the “If I were a…” game a lot. Around here we all have our favourite flowers and plants. When asked which we would be, I think our answers reflect our individual personalities! Here are some of the answers our staff gave when asked. Which flower would you like to be?

Florist Abroad - France & England
We all love Montreal, but every once in a while it is great to get out of our comfort zone and see something new. This past fall I was extremely fortunate to spend two months travelling around some of the best beloved cities of Europe. Working at Westmount Florist, I find myself noticing flowers wherever I go, and this trip was no exception.
