Cool names for a floral business?

A friend of mine is opening a business as a florist, and she’s asked me to help come up with some hip, funky names for it. Any ideas?

Hey, Baby, Nice Stems

Want any more? I got a million of 'em.

To be honest, I don’t like hip, funky names for flower shops. A nice, straight-forward business name is sooo much better. Really!

Even other florists hate the hip, funky name trend, and, going on a personal testimonial here (my brother and his former co-workers, who obviously comprise a statistically valid sample size), would not place orders with them when looking through the FTD directory.

Plagerized from Tales Of The City by Armistead Maupin:

Plant Parenthood

My own (original as far as I know) suggestions:

Vase Value

Petal Pushers

Bloomin’ Idiots

A Rose Is A Rose Is Arisen

Thorny Subjects

and my personal favorite idea:

Shop To Smell The Roses

Is his name Pete? It could be “Pistil Pete’s.”

Oh, sorry, it’s a woman.

Hmmm…

Pollen Appeal! (Hey, it rolls off the tongue pretty well.)

“Dead Stuff as Livestyle Accessories”

Flower Outlet.

It’s subtle and generic-sounding enough that humorless people like xcheopis and her/his brother won’t get it. :slight_smile:

How about “[Your friend’s name]'s Bloom Room”?

Or maybe just “The Bloom Room”?

“By Any Other Name”

“Violets are Blue”

“Florence the Florist”

“Green Pastures”

“Crazy Charlie’s Big-Ass Jumbo Flower Emporium”

Oh, here’s another from a title of one of my favourite songs:

“Where the Wild Roses Grow”

“Sherwood Florist” was the name of the flower shop run by the Green Arrow’s girlfriend. Does that make it unuseable?

LaFern and Shirley’s

A bit VVC, since I was actualy for no reason at all thinking of this yesterday…

“Blssm” (make the 'o’s into flowers)

Or pick another flower-related term (for my sense of humor, I’d call a flower shop with the title ‘Bl**min’ Fl*wers’ just because I see it as a chore!).

The flower shop around the corner from me is called Avant Gardens. I always thought that was a cool name.

“Just how mad is she?”

**Some Enchanted Florist **

( I saw this on a florists van and just loved it.)
