Meet The Founder-Owner-Principal Designer
Hello, I’m Ally.
Founder/Owner/Principal Designer
Creating and working at Plateau Florist for over 25 years has provided me with a creative outlet. With hands on education running a flower business, from operations, accounting, designs, and working closely with the clients. Between years of travel, living out of country and sustaining the floral business has allowed me to excel in my floral designs, which has presented many opportunities. Each day is a new experience and full filled with many stories to tell, it’s never a dull moment. I learned to love flowers from an early age. I fondly recall spending time in the garden with my mother that grew the most incredible white garden rose called White Simplicity. That garden rose aroma still lingers in my mind on a warm sunny day. Mom taught me about the petal count and how to grow stronger stems to hold up their floppy heads for the next season. Mom was also a wonderful artist she loved to draw and paint. She loved drawing butterflies and yellow was both our favorite color! Another one of my favorite memories with my father is when I took him to the LA flower market. I had come home for a break from my travels. He was amazed how I could name all the flowers and their genus names! My father’s memories were growing up on a farm in California growing peaches and grapes, and of course taking care of the daily duties milking the family cows and attending to the chickens. He spent the time with me, to tell me how he and his father grew the different fruits. Before my father had passed, he told me of a story of a crow that kept him company while doing his chores after school. He said it made the time go by chatting with this crow, the crow also protected my dad from the pesty barn owls. He named the crow Sammy Joe. I had never forgotten both of my parents sharing their growing up memories with me. If you look really close at our gift boxes and flower boxes, you will see a little bit of my mother as the ‘butterfly’ and my father as the ‘bird’. In my loving memory for my parents. It will always be a part of me and this business I love so much. As I give you my core statement
