A Rosy Welcome for Almeidas Floral Designs

A woman emphatically handed me a single red rose last night at 12th and Spruce. What on earth was she doing? Promoting the grand opening of Almeidas Floral Designs.

One flower shop closes and another opens in the same exact storefront? It was meant to be.

Chartreuse, the former florist on the corner of 12th and Spruce, has moved to 1616 East Passyunk Avenue, where it keeps its colorful name next to Green Aisle Grocery.

Almeidas has moved in and on Tuesday night, they were giving away free rose stems with their business card attached. What a sweet-smelling way to say hello to your new neighbors and curious passersby, right?

Thanks for the rose, Almeidas, and welcome to Washington Square West.
