I am Roxanne's new biggest fan. I go to a lot of different garden centers and shops in Pittsburgh, and this was by far one of the best experiences I've had. The selection in the back garden grows every time I visit, and she has a lot of stuff that I haven't seen in other places. I brought home a HUGE trailing Hoya longifolia for $44.95, Hoya pubicalyx that was vining up their furniture for $29.95, lemon lime prayer plants with new growth $8.95, swiss cheese plant narrow form $10.95 (which is crazy because you can't even get cuttings on Etsy for this price), and a ton of terrarium plants for $3 including alocasia polly, ferns, even pileas. They also have cheap cute terracotta pots, and boxed charcoal/pebbles/soil for $2.95. Everybody was friendly and eager to help and very accommodating. They packaged my plants meticulously and that really made me happy. I was even told that if there is something specific I'm looking for, Roxanne will order it for me. I felt completely spoiled and am thrilled with my purchases. Definitely my new home base for plants....
Read moreA little over two years ago my mother came to Pittsburgh from Florida to look for a house with my father. At that time she had a brain aneurysm and was life flighted to UPMC in Pittsburgh With her being in the ICU she could not have any living plants or flowers, and my mother loves plants. I called Roxanne's and she not only made her a beautiful arrangement, but she also made sure it made it to my mom. Two years later she still has this arrangement and shows it off to everyone. When I told my new fiance what Roxanne had done for my mom, I showed her the website and she fell in love. She said from then on she wanted to have Roxanne's flowers for our bouquets for the wedding. We found her shop after being here two years and it is absolutely amazing! It felt like home. My mother is alive today to make my wedding bouquet. It was even more special that the flower's came from this little shop that is in the middle of the craziest street I have ever seen. Thank you again so much for everything you didnt know you did....

They have a decently large selection of dried flowers/bouquets, but they aren't cheap by any means. However, the flowers are quite beautiful and different t from what you'd find at Giant Eagle.
Notice that they also have some unique creams and perfumes, although they focus on selling flowers. I have gotten one of the oriental perfumes and the Bon Bon Shea Butter lotion as a gift. She highly appreciated both of them. They have deep scents but are also a bit on the expensive side. You can try out the sample scents at the drawer below the perfumes being sold. Overall, this is a good spot to get a Mother's Day, Valentine's Day, or birthday gift (or just a gift for no special occasion) if you are willing to spend some...
