Is there anything that smells better than a fresh bouquet of flowers? A whiff of Spring with a hint of the promise of Summer… The Flower Haus, established January 2025, has beautiful, made-to-order bouquets that will have you thinking, “Come on Spring!”. Katharina Strubel has long had a passion for flowers and gardening, and after attending an intensive Floral Design program made the decision to lead with her heart and open up her own floral design business. Running out of her home-based studio in Drumbo, Kat has created a beautiful workspace to design her arrangements. Even better for her customers, Kat has recently acquired a flower cooler, to keep her beautiful blooms fresher, longer, meaning the exquisite bouquets and arrangements she makes will stay beautiful for you longer! The Flower Haus has access to both Ontario grown blooms, and imported blooms, in order to bring the best to their customers. “At The Flower Haus, we want to provide each customer with flowers that bloom beautifully for well over a week; because you deserve to enjoy them for as long as possible!” With affordable flowers for any reason or season, whether it be a special occasion, an everyday bouquet, funeral and sympathy pieces, corporate arrangements, or wedding florals, they are sure to be beautiful. However, @theflowerhaus_ doesn’t only have flowers. They also have a line of gorgeous living arrangements, such as Peace Lilies, Orchids, Succulents, and Tropicals, that are sure to brighten someone’s day.
