Wishing you a beautiful Mother’s Day and a fun, memorable Prom season—
– Your team at Gillespie Florists 🌷

The sun is staying out a little longer each evening, the birds are singing their morning songs, and the shop is officially overflowing with the fresh, unmistakable scents of the season. Spring has arrived in full color, and you can feel it the moment you walk through our doors.

This year, we’ve thoughtfully curated a collection that balances the playful joy of Easter with the soft, elegant beauty of a blooming spring meadow. From whimsical keepsakes to timeless floral statements, each piece is designed to celebrate the season of renewal. Whether you’re hosting a festive brunch, brightening your home, or sending a little love from afar, we have the perfect bloom waiting for you.

Meet Our Seasonal Stars

Some-Bunny Loves You
Our most popular Easter gift—and for good reason! This whimsical arrangement is tucked inside a keepsake ceramic rabbit, making it just as charming as it is thoughtful. With reaching pink snapdragons and cheerful yellow daisies, it brings a burst of joy and a touch of playfulness to any tabletop.

Elysian Fields
For those drawn to something a bit more elevated, this arrangement captures the feeling of “eternal spring” found in Greek mythology. Featuring striking blue delphinium and vibrant tulips, it’s a tall, artistic design that feels both fresh and refined. Perfect for Easter gatherings, and just as beautiful carrying you into Mother’s Day and beyond.

Scent of Springtime (Hyacinth Pot)
Nothing says spring quite like the sweet, nostalgic fragrance of fresh hyacinth. This potted bulb plant arrives in a vintage-inspired tin, finished with a soft lavender bow. It’s a simple, meaningful gift that continues to bloom—and fill a room with scent—day after day.

The Fragrant Meadow (Triple Easter Lily)
Our true showstopper. This 10-inch pot holds three mature Easter lilies, rising nearly three feet tall in a stunning, fragrant display. Elegant and timeless, it’s a beautiful symbol of renewal and a centerpiece that naturally draws the eye.

Caring for Your Blooms

For Fresh Arrangements (The Cut Flowers)
Hydration is Key: Check the water level daily—especially for thirsty blooms like snapdragons and tulips. Fresh water makes all the difference.

Keep it Cool: Place your arrangement away from direct sunlight, heating vents, and drafty windows to help extend its life and keep everything looking its best.

Pro Tip: For your lilies, gently pinch off the yellow pollen centers (anthers) as they open. This helps keep the petals clean and bright while also extending the life of the bloom.

For Your Bulb Plants (Hyacinth & Lilies)

The best part about our potted plants? The gift doesn’t end when the blooms fade. These are perennials, meaning they can return year after year with a little care.

Indoor Care: Keep your plant in a bright spot with indirect light, and water when the top inch of soil feels dry to the touch.

Planting Outdoors: Once the blooms have faded and the danger of frost has passed—or in the fall—you can move them outdoors.

The Process: Choose a sunny spot with well-draining soil and plant the bulbs about 6 inches deep. While the foliage will naturally die back, the bulbs are simply storing energy, preparing to surprise you with fresh blooms next spring.

However you choose to celebrate, we hope our Easter & Spring Collection brings a little extra beauty, joy, and renewal into your season. From playful, whimsical designs to timeless, fragrant blooms, each arrangement is created to help you welcome spring in a meaningful way.
