Having trained at Lacy Bird Academy in Hong Kong, Patricia brings each client’s vision to life, translating their messages and sentiments into thoughtfully crafted floral arrangements.

The primary offering in their lineup is their bespoke “floriography” bouquets, which give customers two options:
The Sentiment-Based Design allows the designer to create a bouquet that symbolizes the client’s intended message or sentiment.
The Client-Guided Design, on the other hand, features Florio’s single-stem variety menu, which serves as a “dictionary” that guides clients through each flower’s floriographical meaning. Clients can then select blooms that best represent and tell their own stories.
