Yeah - it's pricey - but dude, it's Newton.

And unlike a lot of places, this place put up with us for a solid 2 hours while we riffled through a bunch of different options for stylin up our back deck.  they were patient, friendly, and very helpful - and weren't insulted when we shot down ideas.

trust me, we needed help in this department, and we got it.

No question about it, this outpost of Winston Flowers is by far my favorite.  Not only is it the closest to our apartment, but it has an ethereal feel about it.  I walk in and instantly feel calm.
The floral designs are out of this world.  The two designers that they have right now are both young, and they are infusing a worldly design view on what has been a traditional art form.  I think every time I visit Winstons I see an arrangement and slap my forehead and say "Why didn't I think of that!"
The choices of flowers and plants are varied, each that is offered for sale is perfect.  Whether you own a vase or buy one of the colorful and interesting holders, what you bring in your door will change your home for the better.

Recommended:  get one of the Winston Preferred Customer Program Cards.  I believe that every 4th or 5th time you present it when you make a purchase, you will get a free bouquet.  Not too shabby!  You can also access past orders, and also you will be alerted to promotions and offers that the general public won't know about :)  Exclusivity rules.

And if you are buying your flowers at Winstons, you are already a member of the smart and cool crowd !

This place does Winston justice.  Perfect showroom for their creative designs and beautiful floral selections.  
The showroom has a "zen" feel to it, and even the attitude of the staff is calming.  You can walk through the greenhouse to see their selections.  Beautiful!

coming from someone who used to work at winston's, this is absolutely the best location.  i love them all, but this one is not a store, it's an experience.  you walk into a lush green indoor garden...not a flower store.  i mean of course there are beautiful flowers , but really the highlights of this store are: tons of high-quality plants that range from succulents to orchids; the employees' amazing interior design skills (they are especially good at picking out cool furniture); and the feeling of relief you get when you walk into the store or the greenhouse.  honestly, once you walk in you'll just have a sigh of relief because you are in a beautiful plant and flower wonderland that has a modern design but is still very earthy.  honestly i would trust these people to design anything.  go here for fun, for flowers, for plants or even for garden design.
