I'm so genuinely excited to finally announce Botanica's first floral workshop of the season! 🌿💐

Join us on June 28th for an afternoon of flowers, creativity, and hands-on learning as we work with a beautiful selection of locally grown seasonal blooms.

Together we'll each create a hand-tied bouquet from start to finish while learning some of the fundamentals of floral design along the way. No experience is necessary. Whether you've never arranged flowers before or simply want an afternoon surrounded by beautiful flowers, this workshop is designed to be approachable, educational, and fun.

All materials are included, along with light refreshments.

Space is limited and advance registration is required.

Tickets are $65 per person.

Registration is now open through the link below. We can't wait to create with you. 🌻

One of our customers brought this vase back in for a fresh refill, and honestly… we were excited to see it again. 💜

There’s something special about getting to create for the same vessel more than once. It means a piece has found a home, become part of someone’s space, and gets to be enjoyed again and again with a fresh collection of blooms.

This time we leaned into movement, texture, and all the garden-inspired goodness. 🌸

Another First Friday snuck up on us. 🌿

We'll be open late this Friday, June 5th, as part of Emporia First Friday Art Walk and we're excited to be hosting artist Emmitt Arevalo in the shop.

Stop by to check out the artwork, browse the plants, grab some fresh flowers, and say hello! We always love seeing downtown full of people enjoying the local art scene. 💜

See you Friday! 💐

A gentle reminder that flowers don’t have to be reserved for birthdays, anniversaries, or special occasions.

Sometimes they’re for brightening up your kitchen table.

Sometimes they’re for surviving a long week.

Sometimes they’re simply because you saw something beautiful and wanted it in your home.

If that sounds like today, stop in and pick out something beautiful. 🌿

Before Botanica Floral & Design existed, there was a dream. 🌻

This week, we had the incredible honor of creating floral installations, winner bouquets, and champion garlands for Unbound Gravel.

Long before opening our doors, I dreamed of one day adorning the winners of Unbound with flowers. This weekend, that dream became reality. ✨

Thank you to the Life Time Grand Prix team for trusting Botanica Floral & Design to be a small part of such an iconic event.

Thank you to everyone who stopped by the shop, attended events, purchased flowers and plants, followed along online, or simply cheered riders on alongside us throughout the week. The support from this community means more than we can adequately express.

And to all of the riders, whether you stood on the podium, crossed the finish line, or simply showed up and gave it everything you had, thank you for inspiring our community year after year.

We’re leaving this week feeling tired, grateful, and incredibly proud. 🌻

Until next year. 💖

One of my favorite projects from Unbound. 🌻

A quick look at how the champion garlands came together. ✨

From concept to reality. 🌻

This week we had the opportunity to create floral installations for the Life Time Grand Prix and Unbound Gravel studio space.

It was such a fun challenge designing pieces that felt bold, prairie-inspired, and at home among the branding, jerseys, medals, and stories that make this event so special.

Seeing the flowers move from the design table into the finished space is always a little magical.

More behind-the-scenes to come. 💛
