Welcome to The Flower Lady: A family-owned, Eastlake-local business! The Flower Lady has been a staple of Portage Bay for over 4 decades now, starting as just a stand on a corner, to claiming a spot i…
I'm not great at leaving reviews, but I had such a great experience--and since I couldn't tip the store staff--it's the least I can do. I live in CA and wanted to send sthg thoughtful to my sibling on their bday.
When searching "gifts," I was happy to see this shop pop up with some great and affordable selections, especially at 6pm. They have a quality section of cards and offer to write in them for you if you ask in the Special Instructions box. Because my sib is an alcohol rep, I chose a whiskey themed card about aging well which inspired me to write a punny note. I also had ordered a potted plant which was pictured in a white ceramic pot, and requested in the instructions that if there were different pots to pick from, to choose a darker toned one because my sib's apt has a "dark academia" vibe to it.
I received a call shortly after placing the order from Sara(h) at the shop. She said unfortunately that the whiskey card was out of stock and let me know of some other options, one of which she described as dark academia adjacent with ravens on black and gold. We decided it was funny to keep the whiskey themed note and she agreed to add in a little sketch of a whiskey rocks glass. When I saw the photo later, I saw that she'd also used the card envelope to write the original text on the front of the whiskey card; a perfect touch. She also said that there was a potted plant in a metallic pot that sounded perfect and way more fitting than what was pictured.
Not only was my sibling very happy to receive the gifts, but was excited to have a plant instead of flowers, and said it looks so good in their home (before I'd said anything). They thought the card story was funny too and said Sara did a great job with it as well as the packaging of everything else.
Great experience! Will def be my go-to spot for celebratory, sympathy and all other occasions for my handful of Seattle friends.

I love the flower lady! The plants/flowers are always beautiful! I ordered the 4” Dieffenbachia in a Ceramic Pot this time and it showed up just as expected. It was noted that the plant would be smaller than pictured so just make sure you read the description for any changes like that!
Will continue to order from here for any flower/plant gift needs!
