Both Jane and Marilee love flowers and are very passionate about them. Jane loves both the creative and social aspect of it. She gets to know her customers personally – their flower preferences, color choices and design styles. Marilee grew up in the garden – her mother and both of her grandmothers were avid gardeners. Jane and Marilee can’t imagine doing anything else, it is just second nature to them. (more…)

Was this business your vision/passion, or did you kind of ‘fall’ into it? Both. I worked in orthopaedics for many years and saw hundreds of fractures that could have been prevented with education or treatment of osteoporosis. Suggestions were made to start an osteoporosis clinic at the facility where I worked. During the investigation into this endeavor I decided to begin the clinic on my own. (more…)
