Y'all. There's SO MUCH to do in our Studio City neighborhood, so if you're coming to get some flowers, we suggest making a date of it! Grab a friend, a special someone, or even enjoy the solitude of your own company as you check out the many places to eat, drink, shop, relax, and play in Studio City. First stop: Flowers! Place a flower order at the beginning of the day, explore the hood, then stop back in the shop to pick it up. Or, if you want the flowers for your Studio City date, make sure to order an arrangement with...

It's not often that we get to incorporate black florals into our arrangements, so when Halloween rolls around, we get pretty excited. If you adore the Spooky Season color palette as much as we do, it's probably because it utilizes a color wheel triad, meaning the three colors - purple, green, and orange - are equally spaced out on the color wheel.

The contrast helps the plants complement each other. There are varying colors of spider plants. Some of the most popular cultivars include 'Vittatum' (bright green edge with a white stripe), 'Zebra' (yellowish edge with a dark green strip), 'Variegatum' (white edge with a green stripe), and 'Bonnie" (curling leaves). You know who else loves Spider Plants? Cats. While all plants in excess can be toxic, Spider Plants,...
