About Harriet's Flowers
Harriet's Flowers has been family owned and operated for three generations.Harriet's Flowers has provided the South Shore area with a rich and colorful history of creative floral designs and personalized service.
Originally, the shop was named Violet’s Flowers after Harriet’s mother Violet Hovey. Harriet and her mother attended floral design school in Tampa when Harriet was only 14 years old. After successfully completing the course, they opened the first flower shop in Ruskin in 1954.
Harriet bought the shop from her mom in 1970 and changed the name to Harriet’s Flowers. Even after selling the shop, Violet kept a watchful eye on her daughter’s growing business and was always willing to share her expertise and lend a hand.
Harriet then passed on her love of the business to her daughter Gail, teaching her the elements of design, the importance of customer service, as well as fostering Gail’s own creative talents as her mother had done for her. The three of them enjoyed working together for many years. They entered countless design shows and won many awards creatively challenging each other along the way.
When Gail bought the shop in 2003, after managing the store for 20 plus years, she decided to leave the name the same because of the wonderful reputation they built under the Harriet's Flowers name.
Presently, Gail, Harriet and a staff of experienced designers still hold to the traditions that the shop was founded on; quality, creativity and personal attention. After all, helping others to express their sentiments through the beauty and richness of flowers remains their ultimate goal.
Thank you for choosing Harriet's Flowers for three generations.
