What to expect

Nestled between the Issaquah Alps and Lake Sammamish, this town’s florists blend forest textures with garden color. You’ll find boutique studios, farmer-grown stems, and same-day delivery that actually arrives on time. Designers favor Pacific Northwest character-fern, cedar, garden roses, dahlias, and hellebores-arranged with airy movement. Packaging is rain-aware, so bouquets travel well from shop counter to trailhead picnic or a cozy dinner downtown.

Seasonal highlights

Spring brings tulips and ranunculus with soft mossy greens; summer leans bold with dahlias and sweet peas; autumn warms up with maple, rudbeckia, and rose hips; winter shifts to textural evergreens and white amaryllis. Ask for locally cut stems when possible-freshness shows in tighter petals and longer vase life. For sympathy pieces, designs tend to be calm and woodsy; for celebrations, expect vibrant palettes balanced by evergreen structure.

Quick tips

• Call ahead for custom colors and event timing.
• Request a water-packed wrap for hikes or errands.
• Choose seasonal stems for value and longevity.
• Bring a vase size; florists scale accordingly.
• For delivery east of town, confirm cut-off times.
