Strike a Posy

Hana & Posy Opens

You rose from bed. Dressed your stems. Then put the petal to the metal.

Hold up, Buttercup. You gotta stop and smell the flowers.

And Hana & Posy is here to help. Like a breath of fresh air, the bright flower and gift boutique opens today.

Kayo Higashimura’s shop stocks K. Hall candles, Beth Mueller vases, and dog accessories. But the real magic happens in back, where designers Jennifer Longo and Carolyn Rizzo create lush English garden-style floral arrangements.

The ladies offer five signature bouquets, including the Heirloom (hydrangeas and orchids) and Per Homme (jade roses with limes and masculine flair). And they use only flowers from farms that live up to VeriFlora standards of sustainability.

Because by any other name, they just wouldn’t smell as sweet.

Hana & Posy, 35 North Third Street (215-733-0505 or hanaposy.com).
