FRESH CUT FLOWERS

We bring in fresh cut flowers multiple times a week to ensure the freshest cuts for your arrangements. Most of our bouquets are hand tied to perfection and there are multiple ways to enjoy our flowers within all budgets. As we flow through the season so do flowers. We love ordering local Alberta and BC flowers in season and fill in the gaps with some imports.

Flower by the stem~ *New* 

Each week a list will be curated for our availability. We have limited quantities of these items so best to get your orders in early. Our flower by the stem is inspired by wine lists, noting regions, colours and viewing notes to choose your flowers. You can order exactly what you want to DIY your own arrangement or give us a budget and pick a few flowers that pop out to you and we will make the "Florist's Recommendation".

 

Custom Creations

We love doing custom creations and we work with any budget. You can use our Flower by the Stem menu to see what we have going on for the week. Prebooks are recommended for very specific colour palettes and flowers and 2 weeks minimum is needed. No flower is ever 100% guarantee due to climate, transport or other unforeseen circumstances, but we strive do our best to make the perfect peice for our customers.

Boujee Botanist Bouquets

These are one of our favourite to create. Wanting to gift someone with an extravagant over the top bouquet? We got you- working with special vintage vases and only the finest flowers we create art for any special occasion....or really just because!  

Bring, Borrow or Buy Vase Program

A raise of hands for someone who has waaaay too many vases at home?! Or perhaps you want to gift some beautiful flowers (for yourself or others), but don't really want the cost of buying the vase? At The Botanist we firmly believe in reusing  what we can so we started our bring, borrow or buy vase program. 

Bring ~ bring your vase in to us in advance and we can create your arrangement directly into the vase with your requested budget.

Borrow ~ borrow one of vases and bring back when you can. Total old school honour system here-no deposit or additional fee just trust in our awesome customers to come back and visit again. 

Buy ~Some of our vases are a touch special/expensive like our hand painted collections and these bad boys will be available for purchase only!

 

 

 

LET US TO THE DIRTY WORK!

You may have lack of knowledge, skill, time or just don't want to deal with dirt in your home. We offer in-store potting services for all your plant babies. 

Our prices range from $1-3 dollars per inch of soil. There is a range because some plants require more work to repot then others. For example a plant that is extremely root bound and compacted takes extra time and attention to untangle the roots safely.

Prices

$1-3    Soil per inch of pot diameter. 

For example a 4" replant can cost $4-12. Why the range? Well some peoples plants come in a state after not being repotted for years. It takes a very long time to tangle the roots together to do our best to prevent transplant shock. Some plants are very straightforward so you will get the base price for these plants. All of our plants are potted with our in aroid, thirsty plant mix (both made in house) or cactus mix. We can do even more custom mixes for things like fruit trees, bonsais and more with special requests.

BYOP Bring your own pot. Have your own pot then bring it in with you!

We have a variety of pots that can be used to plant directly into with drainage holes in saucers including terracotta, ceramic and hybrid resins. We typically recommend to plant into a plastic nursery pot and place this into a the cover pots, but that's not always an option. When possible we will reuse plastic nursery pots at no extra charge. If we do not have one available from our reuse stock one will be charged.
