Meet Lola
The Filipino grandmother behind every beautiful arrangement
For over 30 years, I've been sharing the beauty of flowers with my community, bringing Filipino warmth and love to every bouquet and arrangement I create.
From the Philippines to Your Heart
I was born in a small village in the Philippines, where flowers grew wild in our backyard and my nanay (mother) taught me that every bloom has a story to tell. She showed me how to speak the language of flowers โ how roses whisper love, how sunflowers shout joy, and how sampaguita carries prayers to heaven.
When I came to America in the 1990s, I brought with me a heart full of dreams and hands that knew how to make flowers dance. I started with a small garden in my backyard in Azusa, growing the same flowers that reminded me of home โ sampaguita, kalachuchi, and beautiful roses.
What started as a way to feel closer to the Philippines became my calling. My neighbors would ask for bouquets for their special occasions, and I would arrange them with the same love and care that my nanay taught me. Each arrangement became a bridge between my heritage and my new home.
The Filipino Way
"Sa puso ko, bawat bulaklak ay may kwento."
(In my heart, every flower has a story.)
This is how I approach every arrangement โ not just as flowers put together, but as stories waiting to be shared, emotions waiting to be expressed, and love waiting to be delivered.

30+ Years of Blooming Stories
Every year has brought new flowers, new friends, and new reasons to celebrate life's beautiful moments
Left the Philippines with dreams in my heart and flower knowledge in my hands. Started a small garden in Azusa.
Created my first arrangement for a neighbor's wedding. Saw how flowers could bring joy across cultures.
Word spread through Azusa. Families began requesting my arrangements for graduations, anniversaries, and celebrations.
Became known as the go-to florist for the Filipino community and beyond. My reputation for quality grew.
During difficult times, flowers became more important than ever. Delivered hope to doorsteps throughout the valley.
Now sharing my passion online, bringing Filipino flower traditions to families everywhere with the same love as always.
My Values & Promise
These are the principles that guide every arrangement I create and every relationship I build
Love in Every Petal
Each arrangement is created with the same love I would put into flowers for my own family. Walang arte, puro pagmamahal.
Family First
You're not just customers - you're part of my extended family. I treat your special moments as if they were my own.
Filipino Artistry
I bring the beauty of Filipino flower traditions to every arrangement, mixing heritage with modern elegance.
Quality Promise
Only the freshest flowers make it into my arrangements. If Lola wouldn't be proud of it, it doesn't leave my hands.
Reliability
When you need flowers for life's important moments, I'll be there. Punctual, prepared, and passionate.
Joy & Celebration
Life is meant to be celebrated! Every flower I arrange carries the Filipino spirit of finding joy in every moment.
"Ang ganda ng bulaklak ay hindi nakikita lang, nararamdaman din."
(The beauty of flowers is not just seen, but also felt.)
