Gardens America, Inc. is a family-owned business in its third generation, rooted in family values and built on a commitment to excellence. Since 1969, we have specialized in sourcing, importing, marketing, and distributing the most unique fresh-cut flowers available from around the globe. With a focus on quality, consistency, and long-standing partnerships, we proudly support floral professionals across North America with fresh product and impeccable service.
At Gardens America, we know that flowers don’t flourish on their own—and neither do the people who work with them. In the floral industry, it’s the partnerships behind the scenes that truly help creativity bloom.
Whether it’s collaborating with top designers, being introduced to new creatives through trusted colleagues, or supporting shops across the country with premium products, partnerships are at the heart of everything we do.
Real‑World Collaborations that Inspire
One recent example came through an introduction from Dan Fisher of Fitz Design. At the Wedding MBA Show, Dan connected us with floral designer Sarah Ekberg of Lazy Acres Decor & Floral, who was preparing for a meaningful event at The Compassion Center in Sioux Falls, South Dakota. The floral fashion show, designed to raise awareness for survivors of sexual assault and domestic violence, told a story of resilience and healing through flowers. Gardens America was honored to donate product for this powerful showcase, and Sarah brought the blooms to life through design, reels, and behind-the-scenes storytelling. View the reels here, here and another here.
We also see the power of everyday partnerships through our work with floral professionals like Deborah De La Flor of De La Flor Florist & Garden Center in Cooper City, Florida. Her shop regularly features spectacular arrangements using Gardens America products, sharing the beauty of our flowers through carefully styled photos and seasonal highlights. These collaborations allow us to spotlight how our blooms are used in real-life designs, from celebratory bouquets to thoughtful installations. Here is a beautiful example of our peonies arranged perfectly.
Our community support extends to local nonprofits such as FLIPANY (Florida Introduces Physical Activity and Nutrition to Youth). We donate fresh flowers annually to FLIPANY’s events, helping bring joy and vibrancy to gatherings that promote health equity, nutrition education, and youth wellness across South Florida. We’re honored to participate in their mission of empowering families and building healthier communities.
Cultivating Wellness Through That Flower Feeling
Gardens America is proud to collaborate with That Flower Feeling, a national initiative that promotes flowers as an essential part of daily self-care. The campaign empowers floral professionals with messaging and content designed to encourage consumers to bring home flowers more often, not just for special occasions but as part of everyday well-being.
We regularly share That Flower Feeling content across our social channels, reinforcing the emotional and lifestyle benefits of flowers and aligning with our clients who do the same. From cheerful peony posts to “Self-Care Made Easy” messages, we’re proud to participate in a movement that brings flowers into everyday routines and conversations.
Our team, including Kristin Gilliland, is actively engaged in supporting this initiative through content sharing, industry panels, and ongoing collaboration.
Whether it’s one memorable event or a trusted, ongoing relationship, we’re proud to collaborate with designers who elevate our product and our purpose.
At Gardens America, we take pride in being a solution provider for fellow floral professionals. Through diligence and passion, we deliver fresh, high-quality product that helps elevate your brand and grow your business.
