Among the Blooms Floral Design, Waterdown, ON

I’m Niki Mitchell, owner and floral designer at Among the Blooms! One of the most important parts of what we do at Among the Blooms is getting to know our clients, so I’d like to take the opportunity to tell you about myself first.

My childhood in the countryside of England was shaped by the flowers, gardens, and forests which surrounded me. My grandmother’s garden was my playground, and I remember wanting to immerse myself in the beauty of her fragrant old-fashioned roses. I was only allowed to retrieve the petals that had already fallen, while my grandmother would delicately cut the grandest roses and place them in a vase on the kitchen table.
