The holiday season is upon us, and with it comes the joy of hosting (or being hosted!) by friends and family. Bringing a thoughtful host gift is a wonderful way to show your appreciation and contribute to the holiday cheer. We grilled our agents about their go-to florists for the perfect bouquet and arrangements to bring while visiting friends and family over the holidays.

Myrtle & Magnolia, 2222 Frankford Ave, Fishtown | We’re so lucky to have this woman-owned small biz down the block from us.
