With the belief that modern design in the home can go beyond furniture and accessories, Brooklyn’s Sprout Home specializes in unique and unusual greenery with a contemporary flair. Having recently opened a new floral and gardening design studio, Sprout Home expands to include a breathtaking inventory of classic flowers and other uncommon blooms.

Three years ago, Chicago-based Sprout Home expanded their roots to Williamsburg, Brooklyn with the opening of their gardening center — offering unique greenery and contemporary home accessories. Now, the verdure heaven has expanded with the recent introduction of a new, 700 square foot Floral and Garden Design Studio right next door to their Grand Street location. Their abundant selection of gorgeous cut flowers runs the gambit from classic sweet peas and anemones to rare thistles and even miniature pineapple stems (my favorite!). As a full-service botanical center, Sprout Home also offers classes in floral design, gardening, and the very popular terrarium making.

Already a buzz in anticipation for Valentines Day, Sprout Home is currently taking orders for floral arrangements of all kinds.“You wouldn’t think we’d be the first place that comes to mind when someone wants traditional flowers, says co-owner Tassy Zimmerman, “but we are getting A LOT of orders for red roses.” So whether your loved one favors the time-honored classics or rare and unusual perennials, stop in or call ahead to create a customized bouquet to-day. For those who may feel intimidated by the idea of pulling together an arrangement, have no fear — the staff at Sprout Home have a patented system for creating a customized masterpiece, and all you need to do is give them two words. Check out their promotional Valentine’s Day video below to see how they do it and visit www.sprouthome.com to get a whiff of this vast and beautiful one-stop plant shop.
