After one day of cancelled deliveries, the Florian Flyer was out delivering stunning flowers to our customers once again...one lady was so surprised to see us as no other vehicles had moved in her road for 2 days.....we moved, but not always in a straight line! Another happy customer.

We love the Christmas season at Florian....and so do our lovely customers. Thank you to everyone that pops in each day to say much they love this year's Christmas window, and how much it makes them smile. For us, that makes it all worth while. Happy Christmas!
