It’s not everyday that I get to share my love and passion for flowers with my mother and today, Mother’s Day, it is quite special. By chance my mother, Mary, planned a trip to visit San Francisco from Panama following a work-related trip to the States. Just before her arrival I realized this is the first Mother’s Day we’ll spend together in over 15 years!
What better way to spend Mother’s Day weekend, than walking around the {San Francisco Flower Mart}, introducing her my favorite vendors {& friends} and looking at nature’s bounty of gorgeous blooms and textures. She spent a lot of time admiring all the different flowers and foliage that literally grow in her backyard in the mountains of Panama. We also practiced our spanish-speaking with our friends from {Brannan Street Wholesale Florist}.
What a treat to arrive back to the studio with a little something for mom from them….peonies ‘Para tu Mama.’ How sweet!
Wishing all the mothers and mommies-to-be a wonderful Mother’s Day! And to those who have lost their moms, I think of you as well on this day sending warmth and good thoughts your way.
With love,
Emily
