Osborne Florist

Your Trusted Local Florist in Winnipeg | How It All Began

Hey there, flower lovers! Ever wondered how we became one of the most trusted florists in Winnipeg? Well, sit back, and let us share our blooming journey with you.

Once upon a time, I was an Assistant Manager at a local bank, dabbling in crafts and daydreaming about starting my own business. I was a little lost and unsure of the path to take—until life threw me a curveball. My father passed away, and like anyone grieving, I sought solace in the little things that still connected us to him. In my case, it was flowers. I visited a florist I'd known all my life. Would you believe I even played with the shop owner's daughter as a kid? Yep, it's a community thing here.

The funeral was heavy on hearts, but the flowers—oh, the flowers—were absolutely stunning. A lightbulb moment occurred when my best friend nudged me, suggesting I take a floral course. That was it! A resounding "YES!" echoed in my mind. I knew that was what I needed to do. So, I took a leap of faith, left my banking job, and started learning the ropes under the guidance of Angie Loscerbo, the previous owner of what is now Osborne Florists. Angie became my mentor, teaching me everything from life and business to the art of arranging flowers and serving our customers. And that's how we sprouted into your go-to florist for all your flower delivery needs.

Behind the Blooms
You might think it's all roses and daisies (pun intended!), but there's much more that goes on behind the scenes. Designing flowers isn't just a job; it's an art form that we've dedicated our lives to perfecting. We want you to understand the love, creativity, and craftsmanship that go into making each flower arrangement uniquely special. Rest assured, every bouquet and centerpiece we craft is the best it can be. The artistic value that we, as florists, pour into our work is immeasurable.

Customer Stories to Warm Your Heart
Oh, where do we start? Over the last 25 years, we've been part of countless love stories, anniversaries, and holiday celebrations. There's one story that holds a special place in our hearts, though. A long-time customer first visited us the same year we opened shop. She'd celebrate Christmas with a bespoke centerpiece from us. One year, she came in, her eyes welled with tears—her husband had passed away. It struck a chord with everyone at the shop. Yet, she continued to honor the tradition, year after year. And life comes full circle, doesn't it? One day she walked in glowing, announcing she'd found love again and was remarrying. It's moments like these that remind us why we're in this business.
