Meaningful
Flowers are tradition; for centuries they have been a part of our most important life events and speak to us subtly. Victorians used them to send secret messages to one another. Research has shown that flowers induce lasting positive emotions and true "duchenne" smiles, while reducing anxiety and promoting compassion. Speciality flowers are especially nostalgic. They're the handful of beauty and fragrance you remember from your grandmother's garden. When you give the gift of flowers - something that is all at once beautiful yet temporary - life, meaning, and the natural world are reflected in the flora. It really is pretty simple: Flowers make us happy!

The name Seven Sisters is rooted in the life and history of my Polish Grandmother. She was one of nine children born and raised in Detroit, Michigan, seven of which were girls: seven sisters. She raised her children, my mother and siblings, in the Detroit suburbs in the 1950's, and she adored her itty backyard garden. Although home lots in a rapidly growing suburban environment were quite small, her flowers flourished, and one of her favorites was an aptly named seven sisters climbing rose bush, rambling along her fence. These roses produce mini blooms in clusters of around seven. My grandmother's rose bush was grown from a cutting taken from her mother's rose garden, my great-grandmother, who emigrated from Poland to Detroit as a teenager in the early 1900s and who planted the Seven Sisters roses in honor of her seven daughters. Years ago, my eldest sister gifted me a cutting of my grandmother's heirloom roses for our newly purchased home in Tecumseh. My sister's rose bush came from a cutting from my mother's, which came from that little backyard garden in Detroit.
It wasn't long before my own rambling roses were sprawling over my garden fence, and I fell in love with growing and cultivating flowers - all done in my own urban backyard. These roses have a special way of connecting me to not only to my grandmother, but also to the other strong women in my life. In their simplicity and subtlety, flowers comfort, unite, and make us happy. I hope you get in touch so I can help share the natural beauty of locally grown flowers with you and your loved ones.
