Capitol Hill Flowers: Fresh Cut & Arranged

One of the simplest pleasures I always treat myself to is having fresh cut flowers in the house every week.  I usually only fill one vase and put it in a highly visible spot, like the fireplace mantel, to keep it budget friendly but still have impact.

Up until recently I had been buying my flowers inside Eastern Market.  While that flower shop is convenient, their selection is limiting and they often run out of what I want.  I decided to go on a hunt for another source for weekly fresh cut flowers in Capitol Hill, and that's when I found Surroundings.

Located on the southeast corner of Lincoln Park, Surroundings is an adorable little shop that has a huge selection of fresh cut flowers.  They also do events, arrangements, and even landscaping.  Lucky for me, Surroundings is a quick five blocks from my house.

This morning I took the dog for a walk to the park and we stopped off at Surroundings.  I was in the midst of tying the dog to a bench when the shop worker told me I could bring her inside, dogs are welcome! I loved it!

The prices are fair and the flowers are gorgeous and they definitely won me over on the charm factor.  Buy your flowers local and support our neighborhood small businesses. You won't regret it!
