Lovely Greenhouse

I find buying flowers in Hong Kong can be a bit of a drama. You either go to the markets and risk getting a bloom that will be dead in a nano-​second, or go to the really high end stores, that charges you an arm and a leg (showing your love has no cost apparently!) for a bloom, that will be dead in two nano-​seconds.
Well, after much trotting around, quite a few birthdays and anniversaries, and a lot of dead flowers and plants later, I have finally found Lovely Greenhouse, a great little store that sells good quality plants and cut flowers, but at a very reasonable price. Now I’m happy that Mrs L is happy — win-​win all around!!!
The store makes up regular cut flowers bouquets and baskets, very much like the sort that you would give your mum, as well as wedding arrangements, and the specialist arrangements for events and openings (you know, the shop openings flowers that you often see around HK). They also have a small range of pot plants, mainly orchids, which are well tended and will last a few weeks for even the most talentless gardeners, i.e. me. On my last visit a week or so ago, I picked up one of these orchids for around HKD200. The brownie points from Mrs L was priceless, for the actual payment, there was Mastercard. Yep, credit cards and the like accepted. Even for phone orders.
Personally, I prefer to visit the store. It is conveniently located in the MTR mall at HK Station, underneath the IFC Mall. The shop is kind of sparse, some may say minimalist, without so many displayed arrangements, with most wrapped up in the fridges, so it’s good if you have an idea of what you want to buy before hand.
