Our Story
As a young girl frolicking in the back of Mom’s garden, the curiosity of crawly things on the most gorgeous, fragrant garden Peonies were simply some of the most magical moments at the beginning of a most promising career digging in dirt! Even at such a young age I found peace and serenity in working with elements of the earth ~ my retreat. This connection evolved into a career as a certified Master Horticulturist with an extensive knowledge of plants, insects and disease, which led me to be wholeheartedly dedicated to growing Organically by practicing and implementing Integrated Pest Management protocols. Always with a keen eye for the rarest of varieties, a strong passion for design and several highly superb design opportunities, I was able to further my plant & floral aspirations to all new heights!
A Horticulturist for now over 20 years, my wealth of knowledge & experience in growing crops and Floral Artistry has given me the focus to detail that is needed in selecting the most superior product. The desire to work with the community and bring together creatives dedicated to their craft and growing as a Collective whole is what inspired us at Botany + Blooms Collective. We are excited to share our specially curated selection of plants, flowers and supplies ~ all available to designers in our community across the Okanagan. We are ready to enhance the industry in our community as we know it – we welcome you to the Collective!

Superior quality florals & botanicals will set you and your designs apart from the rest and leave you with confidence, knowing you are receiving the highest caliber of product.
SUSTAINABILITY
Seasonal, Local + Sustainable Flowers is our main priority. We love our planet earth and intend on doing all we can to conserve it!
We aim to reduce our carbon footprint by bringing in the most local of products, re-use all plant & packing materials and recycle everything else that cannot be re-purposed!
We are proud to support our local flower farmers, the Slow Flower Movement as introduced by the wonderful Debra Prinzing. Helping to create balance within our community as well as within our own design practices ~ utilizing and designing with flowers that are grown within a 50 Mile radius brings awareness to responsible floristry practices as well as lending financial support back into our own community, which is essential now more than ever before. BLOOM BABY BLOOM!
