Hi! Thank you for choosing Flowers by Karen in Monroe WA. I am Karen McIntosh and I am passionate about beautiful and amazing flowers. I have adored them my whole life and am happy to share my love with you in every arrangement and design I create especially for you. Yes, I pick each and every bloom just for you twice weekly to ensure the freshest flowers possible.

Where Our Flowers Come From

I choose 99.9% of the flowers I use everyday for designing. It is a process that touches so many senses.. sight, smell and touch. There are always so many options and product to choose from that one wants to just "buy them all".

At several of the flower markets I visit flowers come from all sorts of local growers and on the west coast including Washington, Oregon, Califonia, Canada, and Hawaii. Australia, Thialand and South America also provide us with some wonderful products from their sustainable farms, orchids, interesting greens, roses, dianthus, and tropicals. All flowers are from sustainable growers.

I always look forward to going to our local growers co-op Seattle Growers Market as they have some pretty amazing flowers and branches. I have added a link to their website for you to check out the growers bios and pictures. Their product is ever changing to the Season.

California provides beautiful lilies, snapdragons, and freesia. Canada growers have bright and sturdy Gerbera, tulips and other various unique blooms. Hawaii has marvelous tropicals.
