Sending flowers should never go out of style, but for most people, the experience nowadays can feel rote, lackluster, and uninspiring.

The options are few, the bouquets cookie-cutter. You head to the corner store, bodega, or even a floral shop. Pre-made bouquets feature the same varieties (freesia, carnations, tiger lily, goldenrod…) that rarely change with the seasons.

Then there’s the plastic cellophane, the waxy (pesticide treated) stems, the absence of a distinct aroma (it’s bred out of flowers now in favor of longevity to survive long distances in shipment), and the lack of connection to a small business, community, grower or season.
