thompson & rose flower merchants, coorparoo mkts, 296-300 old cleveland rd, coorparoo

lauren rose & elliot thompson are behind this great flower business @ the coorparoo mkts......i met lauren & she told me she has been in the industry for 15 years + they have owned a florist @ springwood for the last 9yrs.  they buy their flowers at auction & direct from the growers.....

walking into the market i instantly noticed the freshness of the flowers, great variety & the peonies @ $14 a bunch!!!!  so reasonable.....

lauren said she is inspired by the likes of phoebe stephens flowers @ james st in the valley....i like laurens simplicity with her displays & arrangements - very elegant.

They are gorgoues and frankly men need to be reminded that a girl still loves to get flowers...more men should visit the flower markets!! K
