Their website is a sight for sore eyes itself—satisfaction guaranteed, flowers suggested by occasion, same-day delivery throughout the county—but it’s their window displays which truly transcend and inspire. A veritable flower-scape of orchids, roses and boughs dripping with supple flower buds, wispy grasses and baubles draws window gazers like bees in seach of nectar. And S&S’s creations smell even better than they look, another advantage to go in person, and another reason they’re a perennial winner in the category and a guaranteed winner come weddings, birthdays, Valentine’s and Mother’s Day.
